Frequently asked questions
What is YouMyApp (youmyapp.com)?
YouMyApp (youmyapp.com) is a portal of free online apps. It gathers creative, office and productivity apps in one place — photo, video and audio editing, documents, design, 3D, whiteboards and more — so you can open them instantly in your browser, with nothing to install. Many are free and open-source alternatives to well-known software, and every app page shows its source and license.
Are these apps really free?
Yes. The apps are free to use in your browser, and most of them are open-source projects. Each app page shows its version and, when it has one, its license (such as MIT or Apache 2.0).
Do I need to install anything or create an account?
No. The apps run in your browser, so there is nothing to install and no account to create. On YouMyApp, the files you open are never uploaded to our servers.
Are they affiliated with Adobe, Microsoft, Autodesk or Figma?
No. They are independent open-source projects, and YouMyApp is an independent portal. Brand names are used only to describe which kind of software each app is an alternative to; they belong to their respective owners.
Can they replace Photoshop, Premiere or Word today?
Many are young projects that are moving fast. They already cover a lot of everyday work, but they do not match every feature of the commercial originals yet: try them on your own files and judge for yourself.
Who makes these apps?
The apps are created by independent developers, published as open source on GitHub and distributed for free. YouMyApp is a separate portal that hosts their web versions, or a link to them, without modification, and points to each source repository. You can submit your own app through the form: it will be reviewed carefully.
