Xplist
Xplist is a developer utility for macOS that provides a graphical interface for viewing, editing and managing plist (property list) files. Plist files are a fundamental data format used throughout macOS and iOS applications to store configuration data, settings, preferences and metadata. Developers, system administrators and power users use Xplist to inspect and modify these files without needing to work from the command line or rely solely on text editors.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find detailed public information about Xplist's current development status or whether a native Apple Silicon build is available. The bundle ID suggests it is a small or niche utility. To determine your path forward, contact the developer directly and ask whether Xplist has been updated to run natively on Apple Silicon Macs. This is important because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (late 2027) — at that point, an Intel-only version of Xplist will no longer launch. If the developer confirms no native build is planned, you may want to consider command-line plist tools (like `plutil` which ships with macOS) or other plist editors that are actively maintained with native Apple Silicon support. A quick web search for "plist editor macOS Apple Silicon" will help you identify alternatives.
