Adobe Photoshop As an important tool for many professionals, it failed to provide support for the Apple desktop system that converted to the new architecture to keep up with the high-efficiency performance of ARM chips when the M1 Mac was launched. For those who make a living from this, the days of waiting for the official version are finally over, because today Photoshop has officially supported M1 Mac, which is the Apple computer with Apple chips (spread flowers).

Photoshop now officially supports M1 Mac
Although Adobe has launched the first batch of software that supports Apple Silicon such as Lightroom, it has also promised that Photoshop support will come this year, and will release beta test versions as soon as possible. But in the end, everyone has been banging on for a while. Today, we finally have the first batch of products that use Apple chips. M1 MacBook Air / M1 MacBook Pro / M1 Mac mini Enjoy a more efficient version of Photoshop.
At the end of last year, Adobe released a beta version ofBeta version of the video editing application Premiere ProAt the same time, they also proposed official performance improvement data for this official version of Photoshop. Including an average speed increase of 1.5 times compared to previous systems with close specifications. This includes: opening files, archiving, applying filters, as well as relatively performance-intensive tasks such as Content-Aware Fill and selection ranges.
Adobe even reminded everyone in a blog post that you may miss the Photoshop startup screen if you are distracted for a moment (is it so amazing?).
After several months of testing, this official version should be expected to have better performance in terms of stability and other aspects. However, Adobe still mentioned that at this stage, some functions, including functions such as inviting collaborative editing of cloud files and Preset synchronization, still cannot fully support the ARM architecture. But I don’t want this to slow down the release schedule (I know everyone is knocking XD), and I mentioned that I will continue to try to optimize support for the Apple Silicon version.
If you encounter support issues, Adobe says you can switch back to the Rosetta 2 version for maximum compatibility.
This update also brings the “super-resolution” function provided by machine learning to the Adobe Camera RAW Plugin. According to the official statement, the resolution of 10Mp photos can be increased to 40MP through calculation. This will be a feature worth trying for users who need to output high-resolution large images. It is also announced that it will be imported into the Lightroom series.
For ProRAW, which is supported by iPhone 12 Pro / iPhone 12 Pro Max, now Camera RAW can also fully correspond to its profile – for detailed information, please view our “iPhone 12 Pro Max in-depth real-life shooting experience: ProRAW makes iPhone a professional“Actual test report.
