Overview
- Setapp Mobile will cease operations on February 16, 2026, after which apps accessed through the platform will be removed and users are urged to back up their data.
- Subscribers may need to take out individual app subscriptions to maintain access to data stored in apps previously used via Setapp Mobile.
- Setapp’s Mac subscription service is unaffected and will continue operating as normal.
- Launched publicly in September 2024 after a limited beta, Setapp Mobile offered more than 50 premium iPhone apps under a single monthly subscription with no in‑app purchases or ads.
- The shutdown reflects wider economic pressures on EU iOS marketplaces under Apple’s fee structure, with Epic’s store temporarily covering developers’ Apple fees that CEO Tim Sweeney says are not viable long term.
