Lightroom
Adobe Lightroom is a professional photo editing and management application used by photographers and creative professionals worldwide. It provides powerful tools for organizing large photo libraries, applying non-destructive edits, and creating cohesive looks across multiple images through presets and syncing. Lightroom is available in two main versions: Lightroom Classic (desktop-focused with local library management) and the newer cloud-based Lightroom (web and mobile-first, with optional desktop sync). Both are essential tools for photographers working with RAW files, batch processing, and maintaining organized workflows.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionGood news: Adobe Lightroom and Lightroom Classic have been native on Apple Silicon for several years now. According to Adobe and community reports, recent versions of both Lightroom and Lightroom Classic run natively on M1, M2, M3, and newer Apple Silicon Macs without requiring Rosetta 2 emulation. The app you have (version 4.4) is quite old; you should update to the latest version available through the Creative Cloud app or directly from Adobe's website to ensure you're running the native Apple Silicon build. Current Lightroom versions deliver full performance and stability on Apple Silicon without any compatibility concerns.
