About This App

Uninstall Blackhole is a helper utility for completely removing BlackHole, an audio loopback driver used primarily by audio professionals, podcasters, and streamers. BlackHole is commonly installed via Homebrew to enable virtual audio routing on macOS — allowing users to route audio from multiple applications and capture it in recording software like OBS or streaming tools. The Uninstall Blackhole bundle handles the cleanup process when users no longer need BlackHole's virtual audio routing functionality. A native Apple Silicon build of this uninstaller has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

A native Apple Silicon build of Uninstall Blackhole is confirmed running on M-series Macs. If you installed BlackHole via Homebrew, the standard uninstall process using Homebrew (brew uninstall blackhole-<channels>) will use the native uninstaller automatically on Apple Silicon machines. If you are on an Intel version under Rosetta and want to switch, first ensure your Homebrew installation itself is updated to the latest version by running brew update, then perform the uninstall with brew uninstall blackhole-<channels> (where <channels> is the number of channels you installed, such as 2ch or 16ch). The updated Homebrew will serve the native uninstaller for this step. If you encounter permission errors during uninstall — a known issue when migrating from Intel Macs via Migration Assistant — the linked GitHub discussion in the search results provides a workaround involving editing the Cask definition file before retry. Once you have the latest Homebrew, the native version handles the cleanup correctly without needing manual workarounds.
