Overview of SketchUp Pro for macOS
SketchUp is an easy-to-learn 3D modeling program that enables you to explore the world in 3D. With just a few simple tools, you can create 3D models of houses, sheds, decks, home additions, woodworking projects – even space ships.
Programming, diagramming, design development, detailing, documentation, RFIs—wherever you need drawings, you need SketchUp Pro.
A great mix of our classic desktop software, our shiny new SketchUp for Web modeler, and all sorts of things you’ve been asking for over the years — including the ability to publish, share, and store projects in the cloud with Trimble Connect.

SketchUp Pro for Desktop
Fast, easy 3D modeling for anything you can imagine.

It doesn’t open. It just hangs.
Works great on Taohe (Hackintosh Mac Pro Intel and MacBook Pro 16′ M3 Pro).
Just Manually installed, nothing else to do…
Thanks a lot 😉
its working on air m1
go to instructions
Do the following once the file has been downloaded:
Copy the folder “SketchUp 2025” to /Applications/
Double-click on SketchUp.app
It refuses to open. Go to System Settings > Privacy and Security > Open Anyway
It launches but hangs. Force quit.
Type `xattr -cr /Applications/SketchUp\ 2025/SketchUp.app ` and validate in Terminal.
Launch Sketchup again. It may hang again on the video presentation of Layout.
If so, force quit and launch it again: it works now 🙂”
Thx ilvichingo, it’s works
Works doing all according to instructions above. Thanks!
Got it to work through instructions from Edward Teach for the 2025 version. Replace 2025 with 2026 and you’re good.
“It eventually worked for me. Do the following once the file has been downloaded:
Copy the folder “SketchUp 2025” to /Applications/
Double-click on SketchUp.app

I keep getting no such file exists
Comment censored again. As Bill states, it doesn’t open. It just hangs. No idea why my comments are forever moderated out on this site
As Bill said, just hangs doing nothing.
Doesnt start up even after telling MacOS its safe. Just becomes app not responding. For both Sketchup and Layout.
