Install StitchMotion

Requirements

  • macOS 13 (Ventura) or newer
  • Apple Silicon or Intel Mac — both are supported

Download

Get StitchMotion from the Mac App Store. The App Store keeps the app up to date automatically.

StitchMotion Pro

The app is free to use. Pro is an optional one-time in-app purchase — no subscription. You can unlock it from the paywall inside the app (for example when you pick a Pro style or format).

If you already bought Pro — on this Mac or another one signed in to the same Apple ID — choose Restore Purchases to unlock it again. Pro also works across your household through Family Sharing.

See Free vs. Pro for exactly what Pro unlocks.

Opening a design

Once installed, you can open an embroidery file in any of these ways:

  • Drag the file onto the StitchMotion window.
  • Double-click the file in Finder (or right-click → Open With → StitchMotion).
  • Use File → Open… inside the app.

StitchMotion also adds Finder previews and thumbnails for embroidery files — see Finder integration.
