About UTM
UTM is a full-featured system emulator and virtual machine host for iOS and macOS, based on QEMU. It allows you to run Windows, Linux and more on your Mac.
It helps people who want to try other operating systems or processor architectures. On macOS it can also use hardware-accelerated virtualization and boot macOS guests, and its interface was designed from scratch for Apple platforms.
Highlights
- Full system emulation using QEMU, with 30+ processors including x86_64, ARM64 and RISC-V
- VGA graphics using SPICE and QXL, or text terminal mode
- USB device support
- Hardware accelerated virtualization using Hypervisor.framework on macOS
- Boot macOS guests with Virtualization.framework on macOS 12 and later
- Create, manage and run virtual machines directly from your device
