Affinity Photo is a professional digital image editor for photographers and bitmap artists, positioned as a powerful alternative to Adobe Photoshop. It offers sophisticated tools for image enhancement, retouching, correction and compositing, with a focus on intuitive workflow and raw performance. The app supports RAW file editing, advanced selection and masking, layer-based editing, non-destructive adjustments, and professional colour grading. Serif released native Apple Silicon builds of Affinity Photo early in the M1 era, and a native Apple Silicon version has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

1 suggestionAffinity Photo has shipped a native Apple Silicon (Universal Binary) build since late 2020, so you can upgrade to significantly better performance and battery life by moving from the Intel version to the native build. The easiest path is to visit the official Affinity Photo download page at affinity.serif.com and download the latest macOS installer — on M-series Macs, it will automatically be the Universal Binary. Run the installer to replace your Intel copy. Your existing documents, brushes, preferences and custom workspaces will carry over without any manual migration. Alternatively, if you originally purchased Affinity Photo from the Mac App Store, check the App Store app for an available update; the Store will deliver the native build automatically on M-series hardware.
