The Association of Personal Computer User Groups (APCUG) is a worldwide organization that helps groups devoted to the world of technology including computers, tablets, smartphones, digital photography, genealogy, etc. by facilitating communications between member groups and industry vendors.

APCUG is a cross-platform organization supporting a variety of operating systems such as Windows, OS X, iOS, Android, Chrome, and Linux. Membership is open to all technology user groups.

APCUG itself is not a user group; only user groups themselves are members. APCUG’s products and services are offered to group leaders, who can then share them with their members.
