Sign in
First things first, you’ll need to
sign in to the Mac App Store before you
can do anything else. Click Sign In in the
bottom–right corner, then enter your
Apple ID and password. Alternatively,
click Store > Sign In in the menu bar.

App stories
Apple’s app stories are a great
place to start if you’re looking for new
apps. Some are based around a theme
and have a list of useful apps, while others
focus on one app, telling its “story” and
giving tips on how to get more from it.

Use the search bar
There are other ways to find
new apps. The search bar recognizes
keywords and categories, so you don’t
just have to search for app names. Or you
can use the Categories tab in the sidebar
to browse for apps.
