Is probably not a Construct 3 issue itself, but anyway, in a new MacBook Air M1 (Big Sur) an exported desktop app does not even start. The long error message includes a rosetta error, so Intel code is not translating to M1 at the date of this writing.

Is there any alternative that someone knows other than compiling some web view in Xcode?

I haven't tried but guess that Electron is probably in the same state as nw.js.

What seems to work is to use an older nw.js release. The latest is 50.x and with it, the app crashes. I suggest test with a previous version in the exporter. I also exported to html and packed manually with releases downloaded from nw.js websites. Is a bit of more work, probably unneeded.
