Articulate Mobile Player (AMP) End Support?
Hi,
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day, I am just here to voice a major concern about the coming end of life of the AMP.
I am a multimedia developer for an E-learning firm based in Cana...
Hi Gary!
Happy to offer more information! As we've learned more about the removal of Flash in the past few months, we've had to pivot our plans.
Articulate Mobile Player (AMP) courses rely on Flash output, so we’ll end support for the AMP app on December 31, 2020.
- How long will the AMP player remain on the App Store and Play Store after 12/31/20?
- Great question! We don't have an exact timeframe yet because it depends on when those stores will remove it, but we'll let you know as soon as we do. Since operating systems plan to disable Flash at the end of 2020, we don’t expect AMP to continue working after that.
- Will Storyline updates after 12/31/20 have the AMP publishing option removed?
- Our plan is to phase it out over time! There are many factors involved since other applications will also be affected. Since Flash will be removed by Microsoft in the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021, we'll use that timing to remove the option from our tools. We plan to keep everyone informed so they are prepared when we make the switch.
Thanks for taking the time to follow up, Gary! We're happy to help if you have more questions.
I have a question. Why is Articulate scrapping a great feature that obviously many people use? I realize AMP relies on Flash but so did a lot of other things.
Just update the app?
