PowerDirector has always been a favorite editing software for many users. It supports Traditional Chinese, has a simple operation interface, and is as functional as Adobe Premiere. However, in the past, it only had Windows and Android versions, and Mac and iOS users have never been able to experience it. In September last year, it was officially revealed that it would be launched.iOS did launch in December last year, but there is no news about Mac. I originally thought that the ticket would not be delayed, but it finally came recently! It’s free for Mac users to download starting immediately.

PowerDirector Mac version is officially launched
Although PowerDirector Mac version is available on the App Store, for some reason, there is no way to download and install it directly from the Mac App Store. However, the official website provides an installation file, so those who want to try it now need to download it from the official website:
