"Are you concerned that you or your company may be affected by this switch? Rather than checking each one individually, the easiest way to identify any Intel-based apps running on your Mac is as follows: Open System Information (Option+Apple Menu > System Information). Select Applications under Software. Explore the Kind column to identify any apps marked as being Intel. Apps marked as Apple Silicon or Universal will continue to work fine - it's only the Intel apps that need to be replaced."
"If we're honest, Apple's decision to force the final few customers who have not yet upgraded to Apple Silicon is a good one. Apple's newest Macs have been universally praised for their price, performance, resilience, computational power, and more. They perform significantly better than the Intel Macs they replaced, and the next-generation M5 Macs now coming on stream offer ample performance and productivity benefits."
Use System Information (Option+Apple Menu > System Information) and view Applications under Software to check the Kind column for Intel-based apps. Apps labeled Apple Silicon or Universal will continue to work; only Intel apps require replacement. For managed fleets, use Mobile Device Management tools such as Jamf Pro, commands like mdfind, or third-party tools from iMazing to locate Intel apps across devices. Apple Silicon Macs deliver substantial improvements in price, performance, resilience, and computational power compared with Intel Macs. Next-generation M5 Macs add further performance and productivity benefits that support this transition.
