[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1911687, member: 396914"] By "ARM" I take it you mean the Apple Silicon M1 and soon-to-be M2 machines. Technically not ARM, but I get what you mean, I think. And if by "regular" you mean apps for Intel chips, then yes, for now they can run on the Mx systems by using Rosetta2, which is free from Apple and which installs as soon as you launch an Intel-only application.

As for running iOS apps, yes, you can, but there are some steps first: [URL="https://www.howtogeek.com/701486/how-to-run-iphone-and-ipad-apps-on-mac/"]How to Run iPhone and iPad Apps on Mac[/URL] [/QUOTE]
