Iridium is maintained by a community of privacy advocates and is available as a free alternative to Chrome for macOS, Windows and Linux. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of Iridium has been confirmed in use on real Macs, so updating is straightforward. The quickest way to migrate from the Intel version to the native build is to download the latest installer directly from the Iridium project. Visit the official Iridium downloads page, choose the macOS installer for Apple Silicon (typically labeled as the current release for Intel or Universal), and run it — your existing bookmarks, passwords, extensions and settings will carry over automatically. If you prefer a hands-off approach, check within Iridium's menu for an auto-update option or help section that directs you to the latest release. After upgrading, expect improved performance and significantly longer battery life on M-series Macs compared to running the Intel build under Rosetta.
