Specifically, a nice menu bar clock, and a network share automounter. The only apps I have on the app store are small throw-away free things, and a couple of utility apps that were only available there. If a nasty bug appears in a new version and Support/the community recommends downgrading, you might be out of luck on the App Store. And a quick Google didn't find any answers. I'd rather have to do that than risk an automatic update happening to a version that had some bug that majorly affected me.Īlso, is there even a way to downgrade on the App Store? I just had a look and could find no way to download older versions of any of the few apps I have installed from the App Store. Downloading a new version from a website every 2-6 weeks isn't a huge amount of effort. Thirdly, as you said regarding automatic updates, most people in a professional environment would want to be in control of that themselves.

Or a Resolve-only online activation key is also £270. Or at least you're paying some extra to Apple: in the UK Resolve Studio shows as £299 on the App Store, where in the UK you can buy a Fusion Studio dongle for £270, which gives the ability to run both Fusion Studio and Resolve Studio for one single price. Secondly, you're giving 30% to Apple that you could give to BMD. Example: BorisFX's Continuum, quote: 'Note that the Apple App Store version of Resolve is not fully supported and direct downloads of Resolve from the Blackmagic Design site should be used instead.' Or at least, are not supported by their provider. I don't know if audio VSTs work, but I'm certain I've read that OFX video plugins don't work.

I wouldn't touch the App Store version with a 10 foot pole.įirstly, it almost certainly will have limitations - at least with regard to third party plugins.
