Can I use a tablet with Animate?

I recently bought Adobe Animate but I don't know if I can use a tablet with it. I haven't bought a tablet yet but I would like to to make animations with it because it would be so much easier than using a mouse.

    Yes, tablets should work, and with the latest version of Animate there are settings for deciding whether to use stylus pressure or tilt to affect the drawing.

    Yeah a Wacom tablet will totally work with Animate. If you intend to get something like a Surface Pro however they do not work with Animate.

    Also add Huions (specifically the KAMVAS GT-191)to the list of devices that don't work. I swear animate CC gets worse with tablet support everytime I get on these forums.
