Good to know

Architecture checks and their limits

Does it check helpers and plug-ins?

Only the main executable is inspected, so bundled helpers and plug-ins fall outside the result.

Finding and installing updates

NativeLedger opens an app-supplied website or update address, or a web search if neither is supplied. It doesn’t decide whether an update exists or install anything.

Does Intel-only mean an app will stop working?

No. NativeLedger reports the main executable’s architecture. That result doesn’t tell you whether the app will work with a future macOS release.
