AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find detailed public information about VDown to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build is available. The lack of web presence or recent updates suggests this may be a niche or independently developed utility. If you rely on VDown, we recommend contacting the developer directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build exists or is planned. This is important because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), after which any Intel-only build will stop launching entirely. You have roughly 27 months to make a decision. In the meantime, the Intel version will continue to run under Rosetta 2 on current macOS releases. If the developer confirms no native build is planned, consider alternatives like YouTube-DL, yt-dlp (free, open-source command-line tools with native Apple Silicon support) or commercial video downloading apps that are actively maintained for modern Macs.
