MacPaw Hider 2
MacPaw Hider 2 is a file and folder privacy utility that allows Mac users to hide sensitive files, documents, and folders from view on their computer. It provides password protection and encryption features to keep private data secure from casual browsing or unauthorized access. The app is designed for users who share their Mac with others or want an extra layer of privacy for confidential information. It integrates with Finder to make hidden items invisible until the correct password is entered.

1 suggestionThe search results provided do not contain specific information about MacPaw Hider 2's Apple Silicon support status or active development roadmap. However, MacPaw is an actively maintained developer (evidenced by ongoing updates to their other products like CleanMyMac). We recommend contacting MacPaw Support directly at macpaw.com/support to inquire whether a native Apple Silicon version of Hider 2 is planned or already available. Given that Hider 2 version 2.5 is the latest known release and MacPaw continues to develop and update their product line, there is a reasonable chance they are working on or may have already released an Apple Silicon-compatible version. If you require an immediate alternative while waiting for native support, consider using macOS's built-in encrypted container features (via Disk Utility to create encrypted sparse bundles) or third-party apps like Keka or Cryptomator, though these offer different workflows than Hider 2's streamlined interface.
