1 suggestionGood news! SketchBook has been updated for Apple Silicon compatibility. The current version available on the Mac App Store (Sketchbook Pro) requires macOS 12.0 or later and runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs. Since SketchBook became an independent company in 2021, they've continued active development and modernized their Mac app. You can download the updated native version directly from the Mac App Store, which should provide better performance and battery life compared to running the older Intel version through Rosetta 2.
