About This App

Python is a widely-used open-source programming language and runtime framework for macOS, available as a standard framework installed in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework. It serves developers, data scientists, educators, and system administrators for general-purpose scripting, scientific computing, automation, and application development. Python ships as a universal2 binary that runs natively on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

Python from the official Python Software Foundation ships as a universal2 binary that includes native Apple Silicon support, so if you have an older Intel-only version installed you should update to the latest release. Visit python.org/downloads/macos/ and download the current installer package (.pkg file) — the default download automatically detects your Mac's architecture and installs the universal2 build that includes the native arm64 version. Double-click the installer, follow the standard macOS installation steps, and run the Install Certificates.command script included in the installer window to complete setup. If you installed Python via Homebrew, run brew upgrade python to pull the native build. If you use pyenv, upgrade to the latest version of pyenv itself (brew upgrade pyenv), then install a current Python version — pyenv will automatically provide native builds for Python 3.10 and newer. Any of these paths will give you native Apple Silicon performance and better battery life compared to running the Intel build under Rosetta.
