Apple is already putting an end to 32-bit apps<\/a> on iOS devices with iOS 11, and soon the company will make the same changes on its macOS operating system.<\/p>\n

During its Platform State of the Union keynote<\/a> at the Worldwide Developers Conference, Apple told developers that macOS High Sierra will be the “last macOS release to support 32-bit apps without compromises.”<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n
\nStarting in January of 2018, all new apps submitted to the Mac App Store must be 64-bit, and all apps and app updates submitted must be 64-bit by June 2018. With the next version of macOS after High Sierra, Apple will begin “aggressively” warning users about 32-bit apps before eventually phasing them out all together.<\/p>\n

In iOS 11, 32-bit apps cannot be installed or launched. Attempting to open a non-supported 32-bit app gives a message notifying users that the app needs to be updated before it can run on iOS 11.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n
\nPrior to phasing out 32-bit apps on iOS 11, Apple gave both end users and developers several warnings, and the company says it will follow the same path for the macOS operating system.<\/p>\n
