Zoom added their Universal Binary which supports their M1 chips without going through their Rosetta 2 emulation.
I believe this would help RingCentral as I occasionally experience application freezes on the M1 when trying to enable my camera / audio too quickly after loading into a meeting or trying to share my screen. I believe natively supporting the M1 would resolve those issues.

Am I not the only one seeing the universal binary?

The intel version has been brutal on my M1. It would crash every time I'd close the app. The execs got sick of all of the RC issues on our Macs and are having us transition to Teams. Leaving this here for anyone at RC that cares about feedback resulting in the loss of customers.
You'll find the update on the downloads page here: https://support.ringcentral.com/download.html
Thanks for sharing the quick response from the PM. We will stick w/ the Intel build unless we hear a true universal binaries version becomes available.
Hey Jon, we followed up with the Product Manager for this project. She advised:
Jon, I'm looking into this - hang tough while we wait for an answer. Thanks!
I see that the Apple Silicon version has been launched. Congrats!
Can you confirm that the Universal Application is still on the roadmap and that this is a separate goal? Managing updates with 2 separate PKGs of the same app name for Apple Silicon and Intel is problematic for Enterprise IT support.
Thank you,
Jon
Looks like this got pushed down the road just a little.
Hoping for this quarter, but will keep you updated here when we get more news.
Is there any update on this? The level of battery drain from RC vs. other apps on my M1 is astonishing.
My understanding is that this is coming this quarter. When I have an update on this, I'll be sharing information here.
Stay tuned.
When is this slated for release? Communication is key - Please provide an update.
Any update on the ETA for a truely native M1 / Apple Silicon binary?
I'm quite confused as to why this would take this long. It's likely it's just a recompile. Being Zoom had theirs out on December 21st of last year, perhaps we need to move our service to Zoom since they appear to care.
A major disappointment! No M1 native support until 2H 2021.
To even post this as an update to the idea “macOS Universal Application - Apple Silicon M1” is close to being a deception.
Well I guess that means we have to wait until December 2021.
Sorry for the confusion everyone. I confirmed with product that this is expected behavior. They advised it is still an Intel version working on M1 Chips via emulator. Native M1 support is coming 2H 2021.

Yeah same here. I thought I did something wrong. I would say more issues as too, audio garbled and a whole screen on my mac went blank when I had the RC window maximized on another screen
Thank you for providing this information Brandon and Tom, I've looped in engineering so they are aware and looking into this.
I download 21.1.29 today but it installs an Intel version, see attached screenshot of Activity Monitor.
