1 suggestionWe could not confirm whether Silver Efex Pro 2 has been updated to run natively on Apple Silicon. The search results we gathered are from download-aggregator sites with outdated or broken links and do not include information about the app's native architecture status. DXO Labs' official site or direct contact with their support team would be the most reliable source — you should check with them directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build exists or is planned. Given that Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to confirm this sooner rather than later if you rely on Silver Efex Pro 2. If DXO does not plan a native update, you may want to explore alternatives like Capture One Pro, Affinity Photo, or Lightroom, all of which offer native Apple Silicon builds and robust black-and-white conversion tools.
