If your Mac meets the new minimum requirements–see topic below–you can update within Roon. Go to Settings > About and this will tell you if updates are available.

MOVIN’ ON UP – PLATFORM SUPPORT CHANGES
It’s important for us to push forward, and occasionally that means sunsetting support for older configurations. Roon 2.0 will require Windows 10 or 11 - and due to the .NET transition, macOS will require 10.15 as a minimum. We’re also discontinuing support for 32bit Windows builds.
Making these changes allows us to build a better platform for all our users. It means we can streamline software, make it more efficient, and significantly reduce bugs.
If you still want to stick to these older platforms then there’s no need to worry - you can continue to access and enjoy your Roon library with Roon 1.8 Legacy.
NOT READY FOR ROON 2.0? STICK WITH 1.8 LEGACY
For a while now, users have asked for a way to ‘hang back’ when we make major changes to Roon. We’ve listened.
Want to stick with Roon 1.8? You’re welcome to do so until you’re ready for Roon 2.0.
We’ll continue to support 1.8 with critical fixes and security updates until at least December 31 2022, and we’ll evaluate extending this date based on Roon 2.0 adoption rates. You are welcome to continue using 1.8 beyond the end of the official support period if it works for you.
For more information on Roon 1.8 Legacy, please see this post.
