Google Drive for desktop has now been updated with full support for Mac laptops and desktops with Apple’s M1 chip.Īt the start of this year, the previous consumer app (Backup and Sync) picked up “improved Apple M1 support.” Meanwhile, the enterprise-focused Drive File Stream – what was updated to become Drive for desktop – gained “open beta” support for M1 hardware in February.
