  • Autodesk has announced the latest version of AutoCAD for the Mac, bringing support for Apple Silicon Macs.

    AutoCAD is the de facto standard in drafting and design software. Unfortunately for Mac users, the product had not been rebuilt for Apple’s custom silicon. The latest version, AutoCAD for Mac 2024, finally brings full support for Apple Silicon, along with expected performance improvements.

    For the first time, AutoCAD for Mac 2024 and AutoCAD LT for Mac 2024 now run natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon architectures, including M1 and M2 chips in the M-series chips. The support for Apple Silicon can increase overall performance by up to two times compared to 2023

    “AutoCAD for Mac 2024 and AutoCAD LT for Mac 2024 deliver incredible, new performance improvements with the ability to run AutoCAD natively on Apple silicon,” says Dania El Hassan, Director of Product Management for AutoCAD, Autodesk. “It’s exciting to see how customers can now take full advantage of the latest hardware and M-series chips for faster ways to work.”

    The new version also includes a number of new features, including support for Italian and Spanish, Markup Import and Markup Assist features, Smart Blocks placement, Trace Updates, 3D Color Background Application Preference Updates, and 3D Connexion Device Support.
