AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find detailed information about PhotoEffectsLite in our search results or development records, so we cannot confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build currently exists. Given that the app is still installed on your Mac, we recommend contacting the developer at Digital Thought Software directly to ask whether they plan to ship a native Apple Silicon version. This is important because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 (the Intel compatibility layer) in macOS 28, scheduled for September 2028 — any Intel-only build will stop launching after that date. If the developer indicates no native build is planned, you should begin exploring alternatives like Pixelmator Pro, Affinity Photo 2, or Photoshop, all of which run natively on Apple Silicon and offer similar editing capabilities at various price points.
