#### If macOS displays “Support Ending for Intel-based Apps”

> **Info**
>
> This warning means that the current version of PandaSuite Studio includes an
> Intel-based component. On a Mac with Apple silicon, macOS uses Rosetta to run
> it. This is a compatibility notice from macOS, not a problem with your
> project. Studio continues to open and work normally.
>
> You do not need to reinstall Studio or change your project. The warning only
> concerns Studio on this Mac: your project and its published iOS and Android
> versions are not affected.
>
> Apple says Rosetta remains available for Intel-based apps through macOS 27.
> Starting with macOS 28, it will be limited to certain older games. We are
> preparing PandaSuite Studio's transition to Apple silicon before then. Keep
> Studio up to date so you receive the compatible version when it becomes
> available.
>
> Learn [how to keep PandaSuite Studio up to
> date](https://docs.pandasuite.com/account/support/pandasuite-studio-updates/) and read Apple's guidance
> about [using Intel-based apps on a Mac with Apple
> silicon](https://support.apple.com/en-us/102527).
