  • How do I know if I am using the M1 version of a program and not the Intel version?

    It's a free, open-source utility that someone has generously released to the public. I find it useful. I often install and run lots of different apps and open-source things, and sometimes it's convenient to be able to just look at an icon in the menu bar to confirm whether something is running under Rosetta or not. Other people find it useful too. Just because you don't have a use for it, doesn't mean nobody else in the world does either.

    There's a useful app called Silicon Info on Github (https://github.com/billycastelli/Silicon-Info) and also on the Mac App Store.

    It adds a menu bar icon that switches according to the currently-focused app's architecture.

    I'm not sure OP is the developer, but moreso someone trying to just share.. mac app news. I feel the picture and description is self explanatory if you have one, but the full github release is here: https://github.com/billycastelli/Silicon-Info
