I’ve begun getting this message periodically when I load TrainerRoad on my MacBook Pro, “This version of “TrainerRoad” will not open in a future release of macOS. Learn how to update to an Apple silicon version.” The system equirements posted for TrainerRoad software download don’t mention Apple silicon and list only “64-bit Intel® Core Duo 1.83GHz or faster.” I don’t see anything to indicate there is an Apple silicon-specific version available. Is anyone else seeing this message? I guess it could be because I’m on a macOS Beta version? My specifics: 2023 MacBook Pro Apple M2 Pro chip macOS Tahoe ver 26.4 Beta TrainerRoad ver 2026.8.440 ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/7/3/739fa9640ed960e7d3fb4e13f56687f0a45bf944.png) ---

macOS 26 is the last version that supports x86 processors, I’m assuming Apple has started pushing the notifications so that consumers will start pushing vendors. I’m actually surprised TR isn’t a universal binary but I’m not that familiar with the runtime system they’re using. (Adobe Air?) ---

In looking at the Electron 16 release notes ([Electron 16.0.0 | Electron](https://www.electronjs.org/blog/electron-16-0)), it looks like support is there for TrainerRoad, as an Electron app, to support both Intel and Apple processors as a universal app. ([GitHub - electron/universal: Create Universal macOS applications from two x64 and arm64 Electron applications](https://github.com/electron/universal)).

at the very end of that article, “macOS 27 will launch in September 2026, so the end of support for Intel-based Macs is approaching.” I guess we have a few months. ---

The more concerning app is Workout Creator is also only Intel at the moment, and given that TR has shown zero interest in updating this, it could be a goner with MacOS 27 rolls out. ---

I think they should create a web version or integrate it directly into the main app. Or just give up and direct users to someone else’s workout creator. That said, the only other workout creators I’m aware of are direct or indirect competitors to TR. So I guess they better get moving on creating a replacement. It seems to me to be a simple little project that could probably be assigned to one engineer and one UX designer. ---

I find this a bit worrying mind, it’s been almost 6 years since Apple went Silicon and yet the TR Mac app is still intel based. I just downloaded the latest version to be sure and reinstalled and it says Intel. And worse still is the Workout creator, which hasn’t been updated at all and might even be phased out. ---

> [@evren](#): > > And worse still is the Workout creator, which hasn’t been updated at all and might even be phased out. Clearly the Workout creator is not a priority for TR. ---

My wording was maybe a bit off there. We will have things updated before any of our athletes see issues with the app. 👍 ---
