Why do apps leave?
There are cases when apps leave Setapp and become unavailable for Setapp subscribers. The reasons are various. The most common reason is that app owners stop supporting the app or retire it completely. This reason covers over 90% of all cases. Other possible reasons are that an app switches to another distribution model or becomes free.
What happens when an app leaves Setapp?
The app is no longer updated nor maintained in Setapp; it gradually becomes obsolete and probably loses compatibility with the newer macOS versions. If you keep an app installed, it remains functional via Setapp.
However, after uninstallation, you can no longer install it again. Of course, you can always look for a suitable alternative in Setapp.
Note: We always send emails with information about app removal to its users before the removal. So you have time to back up essential data if necessary.
