1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about WD App Manager or confirmation of a native Apple Silicon build. The app continues to run under Rosetta 2 today, but will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028). Contact Western Digital directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned, and when it will be available. In the meantime, check the Western Digital support website for any updates or beta versions. If you have a Western Digital device, their direct management tools or web-based dashboard may offer native alternatives for some essential tasks while you await a native desktop app.
