Support for 64bit ONLY macOS (Catalina)?

Will the Leap Motion.app be up-rev'd to work in the 64bit ONLY macOS coming soon?
Also, the same question applies to the various app's like GEKO, et al.

We don't currently have any plans to update the OS X SDK, which has not been supported since 2015.

Based on my testing, the LeapMotion Controller device still works on macOS 10.15 "Catalina" because the various tools in the Leap Motion.app are already 64-bit executables. However other higher level apps like "Leap Motion App Home" and "Leap Motion Orientation" do not work anymore because they are 32-bit only. A 64-bit recompile for 3rd party apps should bring compatibility with macOS 10.15 though. Still, it's a shame that LeapMotion does not intend to update the macOS SDK...

It's unfortunate, but a necessary consequence of the elimination of 32-bit support; no doubt a lot of older game titles will no longer be available as a result. In any event, App Home no longer works regardless, since the App Store DRM service is no longer active.

App Home is 64-bit except for its webkit components. Seems like that piece wouldn't be much of a stretch to update for full 64-bit compatibility for that app.

Specifically, these:

/Contents/Frameworks/node-webkit Helper EH.app
/Contents/Frameworks/node-webkit Helper.app
/Contents/MacOS/node-webkit
/Contents/Frameworks/node-webkit Helper NP.app

Orientation, however is a pure 32-bit app and would need recompiling as 64-bit.

App Home may be 64-bit, but the underlying server infrastructure that allowed it to download new apps is no longer active.

Any news regarding 64bit update for Catalina?

I am disappointed as I love this thing and have uses I music programs. Really no way to get this all updated for 64 bit? Maybe release the code and some entrepreneurial soul in the OS X community bails us out?

This is a great product for musicians so you should market to this community. I for one love using it and hope you guys see fit to helping keep it compatible with OS X Where is the latest version of the software?
