Swipe Translate
Swipe Translate is a translation utility for macOS that allows users to quickly translate text by swiping or highlighting. It appears to be designed as a convenience tool for translating small passages of text, potentially supporting multiple languages and providing quick access to translations without needing to open a separate application or browser tab. The app targets users who frequently work with multi-language content and want a streamlined translation experience built directly into their Mac.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not locate public information about Swipe Translate or confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build exists. Given that the app has a straightforward bundle ID and utility-focused purpose, it is likely still maintained, but search results did not yield reliable details about its current status or native support. We recommend contacting the developer directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. This is important because the Intel-only build will stop working when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28, scheduled for September 2028 — leaving you with less than 28 months to find a solution. As an interim step, you can check the Mac App Store by searching for "Swipe Translate" to see if a native version is offered there, or visit the developer's official website for download and architecture information.
