FreeMan
FreeMan is a file manager utility for macOS that provides an alternative to Finder, offering features like dual-pane navigation, advanced file operations, and customisable file sorting and filtering. It is designed for users who want faster access to files and folders beyond what the standard Finder interface provides, particularly power users and developers who regularly perform bulk file operations or work with directory hierarchies.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find public information about FreeMan's native Apple Silicon support status. The bundle ID suggests this is a third-party file manager from Galaworks, but the developer's website and recent release history are not accessible through our search results. Since FreeMan runs as an Intel-only app under Rosetta 2 today, you should contact the developer directly at their official site to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. This is important because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), meaning any Intel-only build will stop launching entirely at that point. If the developer is no longer maintaining the app, consider migrating to a natively supported file manager like Finder (which is built into macOS), Path Finder, or Commander One — all of which run natively on Apple Silicon and offer power-user features including dual panes, batch operations, and file preview. Our search results did not yield definitive information, so reaching out to the developer is your best next step.
