Adobe Photoshop Now Available for Macs with Apple Silicon M1 Chip

Adobe Photoshop Beta

Apple has recently unveiled its new Apple M1 SoC along with three new Macs — MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and a Mac Mini, all powered with ARM architecture. During the event, the Cupertino giant has also talked about its app compatibility and announced about arrival of Photoshop support for its ARM-based Macs soon.

Adobe has released a beta version of Photoshop for Macs with Apple M1 Processor today. The company announced the beta release with a statement saying, “We are excited to announce the first Beta release of Photoshop running natively on ‌Apple Silicon‌ hardware! This early version of Photoshop for ‌Apple Silicon‌ offers many of the core Photoshop features that you’ve come to rely on for your day to day editing needs, and we’ll be adding more features in the weeks to come. Note that Beta software is not officially supported yet by Adobe, but we want to hear from you, and this is the place to let us know how it’s going.”

As per the released statement, the beta version of Photoshop has been currently supporting the very core features of Adobe’s photo editing software, so if you are one who uses the advance feature of Photoshop then we are sorry to inform you that the new Macs hasn’t got the quite much feature that you are really hoping for. Unfortunately, Adobe has also said that it doesn’t officially support the regular x86 version of Photoshop with Rosetta 2, so the new Mac with the Apple M1 chip is quite not good for any professionals who depend on Photoshop. But the company has promised to introduce new features in the coming time.

We are hoping that the development of Adobe Photoshop for Apple M1 powered Macs happen soon. In the meantime, you can share your experience of the Adobe Photoshop beta of new Macs in the comment section.
