No Native Facebook Google Apps On Apple Silicon Macs At Launch Report

It is worth noting that all iOS and iPadOS apps will, in theory, be compatible with the upcoming iMacs. The App Store will reportedly designate such apps with a message reading: “Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS”. If an app is not compatible with Apple Silicon Macs, the App Store will show a message telling the user to download in on their iPhone or iPad instead. Of course, all developers can choose to republish their apps with Mac support at any time, which means the lack of native Facebook and Google apps on the platform could be temporary. Apple is all set to unveil its first Apple Silicon Macs at its ‘One More Thing’ virtual event later today. The launch would mark Apple’s transition from Intel chips to its own in-house silicon almost two decades after the company ditched its in-house PowerPC chips that used to power its PowerMac models in the early years of this millennium.
