Lightrider on Mac OS X

Hello,

as Apple Mac Books and also Apple iPad now uses the M1 silicon cpu from Apple, will there be a change to run the Lightrider app also on a Mac Book with M1 cpu?

I have both interfaces - DVC4 Gold and Lightrider - and sometimes it would be great if you could use Lightrider also on my Mac Book for easy setup.

Hello,

Whilst the new range of Mac's use the same M1 chips as the iPads, the Light Rider app is not designed for computer use, so we have not enabled it for release on to the Apple App store for Mac computers, same as we do not allow it for use on the Apple App store for iPhone.

Some users have setup emulators to run the app on their computers, but this is out of scope for support, and currently not officially supported on that platform.

This may well change in a future update to the Light Rider app once we have developed it further.

Kind Regards

Hello P-Low,

many thanks for your reply and explaining.
I'll take a look at the emulators you have mentioned.

Greetings,
