AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of Avast is confirmed to exist and is running on real Macs in our community. To upgrade from the Intel version to the native build, visit avast.com and download the current macOS installer — Avast's download page will automatically serve the Universal Binary on M-series Macs, so the standard installer is all you need. After installation, your existing settings, scan history and license activation carry over without manual migration. If you are using Avast through your system antivirus settings or a security suite, verify that the installer completes successfully and re-enable real-time protection once the native build is in place. You will see improved performance and battery life compared to running the Intel build under Rosetta.
