AI Recommendation
1 suggestionPrism has shipped as a native Universal Binary for macOS since version 9.0.1 (released January 2021), meaning it runs natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs without any compatibility layer. If you are running an older version of Prism (version 8 or earlier), you should update to the latest version available. Check for updates within Prism itself by opening the application and looking for a software update notification, or visit the GraphPad website to download the current release directly. Once updated, Prism will run at full native performance on your Mac without any Rosetta overhead.
