About to order a Snapdragon powered surface laptop 7, Is the front Desktop app setup to natively run on ARM on windows? 

Best answer by kevinr

Update for anyone else who might be curious: I ended up installing the windows app on one of the new snapdragon powered surface laptops and it works totally fine via the built in emulation. Can’t even tell it's not a native ARM app :)

Hi Kevin👋 Great question! Currently, our desktop app is not setup to natively run on ARM on Windows. You’ll want to access Front via the web browser in this case. Thanks for reaching out!

wait, it is or isn’t (since you said I would want to use the web browser)?

Sorry for the typo! I meant to say “our desktop app is not setup to natively run on ARM on Windows.”

Using the web browser would be the way to go.
