    The support isn't there quite yet, but it's worked on.

    You can check here:
    https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85279

    For current progress, and what you can do yourself of right now, to make it work, apparently building Qt yourself my work 🤷‍♂️

    @J-Hilk Thank you for your answer ! Unfortunately I can’t manage to build qt by myself, I think I will wait for now ...

              @Justinxiang You could try to build Qt by yourself which is not an easy task

                    Is there a solution for this issue. I have Qt6, but the issue persists.

                      This is the code in .pro. I used homebrew to install opencv4.

                      QT += core gui

                      greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

                      CONFIG += c++11
                      CONFIG += arm64

                      SOURCES +=
                      main.cpp
                      opencvmain.cpp

                      HEADERS +=
                      opencvmain.h

                      FORMS +=
                      opencvmain.ui

                      INCLUDEPATH += -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/include/opencv4
                      INCLUDEPATH += -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/lib
                      INCLUDEPATH += -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/bin
                      LIBS += pkg-config --cflags --libs opencv4

                      LIBS += -framework CoreFoundation
                      LIBS += -framework IOKit

                      LIBS += -L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/lib
                      -lopencv_core
                      -lopencv_highgui
                      -lopencv_imgproc
                      -lopencv_core

                      QT_CONFIG -= no-pkg-config
                      CONFIG += link_pkgconfig
                      PKGCONFIG += opencv4

                        What issue do you mean? Qt built for x86_64?
                        There is no official M1 ARM builds of Qt yet.
                        You can either build Qt by yourself or use OpenCV x86_64 build.

                          Thanks for the replay. I have a Mac M1 and I cannot build. I get the following error.

                          ld: warning: ignoring file /opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/lib/libopencv_alphamat.dylib, building for macOS-x86_64 but attempting to link with file built for macOS-arm64

                          If Qt does not support M1 could you please recommend a resource that I can follow to build and run opencv.
