No. iOS devices run the iOS operating system. iOS devices are iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches. Macs, including the MacBook Air run the macOS operating system. 2 different operating systems. And apps for one don't work on the other.


Where did you find this App exactly?


Do the developers have a Mac version?
