How to View All Intel Apps on Apple Silicon M1/M2 Mac

Finding all Intel Apps on Apple Silicon Mac is easy:

1. 1. Press Command Spacebar anywhere on your Mac to bring up Spotlight Search
   2. Enter "System Information" and press Enter to launch the System Information app
   3. Under the Software section Select "Applications" from the left menu

1. 1. Sort the list by "Category" and add all Intel applications, universal applications Programs (i.e. code for Apple Silicon and Intel) and Apple Silicon apps are grouped together

Now you can see exactly which The application is Intel native and therefore can be run on a Mac using Rosetta.

If your goal is to get as many Apple Silicon native apps as possible, you can browse the list and then find these app developer websites and try to download the Apple Silicon specific version of each app you can . Many apps available through the App Store are also still Intel-based, which is not unusual as many developers are slow to update their apps to the latest architecture.

Please note that there are still a large number of applications that are either Intel-exclusive or generic, the former meaning Rosetta is in use, the latter meaning the application has code common to both. Since Rosetta's performance is so good, you'll almost certainly not notice a performance hit on apps using Rosetta, but technically they're not optimized for the Apple Silicon architecture because they're not running natively on it.
