CleanMyMac is available on the MacPaw Store, the App Store, and Setapp. These platforms differ in pricing, billing, available features of CleanMyMac, and other aspects.

Let's discuss these differences so you can choose the marketplace that's right for you.

Pricing, upgrades, and purchase options

CleanMyMac pricing depends on factors like the number of devices covered, upgrade possibilities, and country-specific taxes. Therefore, it's best to check the current pricing plans directly on the respective store.

For example, a one-time purchase license of CleanMyMac X doesn't include an upgrade to the latest CleanMyMac.

Any subscription plan provides all future upgrades.

[2] Regardless of how many applications you use (CleanMyMac alone or over 250 apps), you pay a single subscription fee.

All apps are fully functional, without restrictions or ads. Upgrades are included too.

App Store version of CleanMyMac

The App Store version of CleanMyMac differs slightly from the versions available on the MacPaw Store and Setapp.

While the App Store version includes a robust set of cleanup and optimization tools, for the full feature set of CleanMyMac, you may prefer the versions from the MacPaw Store or Setapp.
