XnView MP build for macOS ARM64 / M1 / Apple silicon?

Post by Amiga »

Any chance please of getting a native or Universal 2 build (not Rosetta 2) for the macOS ARM64 / M1 / Apple silicon platform? Big Sur and Monterey are gaining traction.

A M1 native version would be very much appreciated. I'm happy to hear that you have plans to do so. Keep up the great work :)

Any updates on the ARM64/Universal Apple Silicon build for XNView?

Or are you still waiting on libraries?

It's been a while and may I ask about the progress...?

XnView is my favorite picture manager and I am really looking forward to a fully native version :D

I just joined the forum to subscribe to this specific topic.

I'm also interested on the Apple Silicon version (I intend to keep my MacBook "Rosetta Free"! :D).

EDITED: I'm willing to test and provide feedback for any beta release for Apple silicon.

Me too willing to test out the M1 version. It's been pretty long time since I switched to M1 and waiting for a native version :shock:
