I asked years ago if we could get a native version of Tap Forms 5 for Apple Silicon. I was told that yes it would happen, the dev was just waiting as they did not yet own a Apple Silicon device.
What we ending up receiving was a subscription based version of tap forms which I have no interest in. I’d be happy to pay for an upgrade though.
Could we get a native version of Tap Forms 5?
Either that or could we have a change to the tap forms pricing model from what it is now to a update subscription. What ever version you have you keep but you pay for a year of updates?
Hi Aaron,
There won’t be an Apple Silicon version of Tap Forms 5 because in the two years that I spent working on Tap Forms Pro, I removed some third party libraries that were Intel based in order to be able to make Tap Forms Pro Apple Silicon native.
Tap Forms Pro is the future of Tap Forms, but I have updated Tap Forms 5 just recently to make it continue to function properly on macOS Tahoe where there were a couple issues. I won’t be able to do that indefinitely though as in a couple of years Apple will no longer support Rosetta on Apple Silicon Macs. Tap Forms 5 requires an Intel Mac or Rosetta to run.
As far as the subscription model is concerned, I have responded to this question a couple times already in this forum.
Thanks,
Brendan
