Everything that makes your computer yours — the apps, the settings, the little things — kept safe on a disk you hold, ready to bring any machine home.
One click gathers your apps, your settings, your files — and then proves it, reading every file back and checking its fingerprint before it ever says “done”. Not to someone else’s cloud. To a disk in your hand.
Every backup is a chapter. Scroll back through time, see what changed, and return to any moment — the day before the big update, the setup you had last summer. Nothing is ever lost by moving forward.
Plug in your disk. Press Apply. Watch a brand-new machine become unmistakably yours — apps installed, settings restored, files back in their places. It even knows your name changed and points everything to the right home.
Every apply shows you both directions first — what arrives, what leaves. Nothing moves until you say so.
An apply either completes entirely or changes nothing at all. There is no halfway.
A safety snapshot is taken before anything changes. Any setup, any moment, one press away.
Search across every world your platform speaks, install with one click — and everything you add becomes part of your setup automatically: saved, versioned, portable. Uninstall the same way. Updates too. It’s a store that remembers.
Your files live on your disk — never uploaded. Your account carries only a small catalog of names and dates, so your devices can find each other. Sign-ins and private files are sealed with a key that only your machines hold. We couldn’t read them if we wanted to.
One line in Terminal, and the app is in your Applications folder.
First launch: macOS will ask once — approve it in Privacy & Security, or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Setups.app. We’re finishing Apple notarization to make this disappear.

The Setups app, as a Flatpak.
On the way — finishing our Flathub release.
For power users: the full Setups command line — install, uninstall, version, plan, and apply your whole machine from the terminal — is one click away inside the app, under Settings.
