Articulate Mobile Player (AMP) End Support?

Hi Rod,

Thanks for sharing your research and efforts so far and sharing them with the forum! You've been busy! For myself and my need for offline playback, it's different I'm sure than almost everyone else. Although I develop a small amount of LMS delivered eLearning, That's not the use case that I have for offline delivery.

I have been using SL360 (and earlier versions) for developing interactive multimedia sales presentations, that are downloaded via AMP and able to deliver in scenarios where a sales rep is in front of a prospect with little to no control over internet access sufficient to deliver rich content. AMP was easy for them to download and present content. It had limitations Such as I disliked the inability to pinch-to-zoom content and lack of other type typical iPad navigation features. The lack of JavaScript support was frustrating as well. But the ability to easily download and play content offline trumped its limitations IMO.

I don't want my frustration over the failure of Articulate to redesign AMP for HTML5 like they did for the entire authoring program itself, to make it sound like I dislike Articulate. I still think SL is a  great eLearning authoring program. Better than most out there now that I am aware of. However it doesn't stop me from missing Authorware every day though :-). I am however not giving up. Still hoping Articulate will eventually see the error of their ways...but not holding my breath while doing so. 

Good luck to you and please continue to share any progress you make with your research.
