Setup problems with M1 MacBook Pro

[quackmanlives]

Katarzyna can you just confirm that Displaylink works on the new macbook M1 and the most current version of Big Sur? Can you please just explicitly confirm it either works or it simply doesn't? It would be a great help for us all to stop trying to get it to work, ordering 50 different adapters from amazon and watching youtube videos from 2 weeks ago that seem to now be obsolete information wise. Just give us some truth! Please. Thank you, Duckman

Hello,

DisplayLink Manager 1.2 release introduces support for Mac using the Apple M1 chip. So yes, we do support external monitors with M1 Macs with that version of the driver.

There is a limitation of screen rotation on Mac with Apple M1 chip not supported on macOS Big Sur 11.

Best regards,
Katarzyna
