Apple Silicon (M1) Desktop Sync Compatibility

Come on folks, read the writing on the wall. Dropbox has been in bed with Microsoft for years, and that is clearly influencing their commitment to Apple hardware.

This is ridiculous, either say the truth that you are not interested in creating an M1 silicon native version of the application or I'm leaving.

I've been a user for over 5 years and this type of response is a disgrace. Apple Silicon was released in late 2020. Dropbox had a long time to get its **bleep** together and it looks like nothing has happened.

Please give us the truth rather then some lame answer.

Adding to the pile of people who are considering looking elsewhere. I just ordered an M1 Max with an expected delivery at the end of November, I have been using DropBox Professional for personal use for the last year, and I'm about to start researching and adding a cloud storage option for my team, for 20-25 licenses, sometime before the end of the year. It may not be a huge corporation of thousands of licenses, but it's also important to note that I'm not just some free user complaining either.

I'm sure the Twitter/Reddit thread is getting this more attention today than it's had in a while (after all, that's how I found it!), but if there's not a response from DropBox with acknowledgment that it's being worked on and some semblance of a timeline by the time I receive my laptop next month, then I'll be recommending another service for my team and will move my personal files to another service as well.

We seriously have to vote for native support? How is this not a development priority?

If I had known it wasn't even a priority before my subscription just re-upped, I wouldn't have resubscribed. As it stands, if this isn't ready before my subscription renews again, it will not renew again. To be more clear, if you want any more of my money, get it together and support macOS natively. 

Dropbox engineers please devote the time and energy to build a native Apple Silicon (arm) build.

Look at all the Dropbox processes showing kind Intel.

I suppose one good thing from this today is the number of votes for this increased by at least 50 since this morning.... Of course we won't hear from Dropbox what the threshold is for them to consider but hopefully we've triggered some internal metric that they'll start to care about this now and commit (as well as communicate) making this native

if I have to register to vote and do so just to get Apple silicon support so be it, but this isn’t the Dropbox I’ve paid for the last 10 years… I hope this gets resolved soon

Oh dear, unfortunately they don’t seem to care now. Cancelled auto renew for my yearly Dropbox subscription; I’ll look elsewhere. 

Dropbox needs to work with Apple Silicon M1 Macs natively. The performance of the M1 chip set is far superior to the Intel versions and eventually all of Apple’s products will sport silicon chips. Your company has a compelling reason to adapt Dropbox to run as efficiently as possible for the millions of customers who will be using  Apple Silicon hardware. Rosetta Stone was never meant to be a permanent work around.
