While Apple is still working on its big two-year transition to self-produced Apple chips, even in those early days software developers are already bringing their apps, with Nvidia just adding support for Macs M1 to your GeForce Now game streaming client.
Last spring, Nvidia deployed support for GeForce Now on iPhones and iPads via Safari, and while users were able to simulate the process on Macs by editing their chain of user agents, the experience was not optimized. correctly, which often resulted in less performance.
However, a GeForce Now version 2.0.27, Nvidia not only adds beta support for streaming games via Google Chrome on both Windows and macOS, Nvidia has also updated its native GeForce Now macOS app to include support for M1-based Macs. This means that users with M1-based MacBooks or Mac Minis will have two ways to stream games from the cloud using GeForce Now, along with Google Stadia, which has been available on Mac M1s since launch.
In fact, while technically it still has early access, Mac users can also stream games using Amazon’s Luna game streaming service, for a total of three different providers to stream games from the cloud.
In addition to the added support for Chrome, the latest GeForce Now update also includes a new way to invite friends to your games by simply sending them a special URL generated in Chrome. Alternatively, on iPhones and iPads, Nvidia says game invitations created by the Share option can be sent to friends who sing apps such as iMessage, Whatsapp, and others.
