AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about Langenscheidt Dictionaries or confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build has been released. The bundle ID suggests this is Langenscheidt's official macOS dictionary app, but the lack of search results and public information raises questions about its current maintenance status. If you rely on this app, contact Langenscheidt directly to ask whether they have shipped or plan to ship a native Apple Silicon build before macOS 28 arrives in September 2028 — an Intel-only build will stop launching entirely on that release. In the meantime, you may want to research alternative dictionary apps with confirmed Apple Silicon support, such as Dictionary (built into macOS), Pons Online Dictionaries, or Dict.cc, which all run natively on M-series Macs. Some users also find web-based German dictionaries like leo.org or duden.de sufficient for daily reference needs.
