macOS Catalina Compatibility


Recommended Posts

There seem to be quite a few reports in the forums of various issues running the three Affinity apps under macOS Catalina and I just wanted to ask what general experiences people are having where they have updated their OS. I've been holding off mainly because I've been waiting for the Capture One 20 update (released today) to provide full Catalina support but I don't want to update only to then find I have issues with Designer, Photo and Publisher.

I would welcome any advice/feedback/experiences on whether it is 'safe' or 'advisable' to update my OS with regards Affinity app compatibility or whether it is wise to hold off for a while and waiting for the official 1.8 release across the board which is likely to address some of the reported issues?

Affinity Designer 2.4.2 | Affinity Photo 2.4.2 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.2
Affinity Designer  Beta 2.5.0 (2402) | Affinity Photo Beta 2.5.0 (2402) | Affinity Publisher Beta 2.5.0 (2402)

Affinity Designer 1.7.3 | Affinity Photo 1.7.3 | Affinity Publisher 1.10.8
MacBook Pro 16GB, macOS Monterey 12.7.4, Magic Mouse

A well-known saying usually says "The early bird catches the worm", in the IT and software branche its instead more "The early user catches the bugs". ;) - So if you want to be overall more stress-free, my advice here would be, enjoy your coffee and wait just a little bit longer, until Catalina's own code and related third party software bugs and problems (according to Catalina OS changes, strict 64-Bit etc.) are mostly discovered, fixed and solved.

(For german readers: Darum haben iOS 13 und Catalina Fehler)

☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan
☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2
