Question

Will there ever be an Animate CC for iPad Pro?

I'm kind of baffled that Adobe haven't entered the iPad animation market yet. There is a real lack of decent animation software for iPad Pro, with the best out there so far being Rough Animator. 
Animate seems like a natural fit for the iPad, please make it happen Adobe!
By the power of my invested CC money, I humbly request you to get on this, stat 🙂

    I'm gearing up to use Wick Editor with my high school animation students.  We have full CC in our lab , but since we're learning remotely because of COVID we have to make due with substitute apps like wick editor and Vectornator.  I wish adobe understood student needs, especially during remote learning.

      Adobe Animate should run on all iPads -- not just Pro. I've got disadvantaged students who will never have the money for the Pro. They were gifted iPads by NYC Dept of Education. That is amazing and also frustrating to have a good tool that is hamstrung. Adobe should help close the digital divide we have in this country!!!

        Andrew,

         

        There are a few good iPad apps that can sub for Adobe Animate. 

         

        1. Rough Animator: basic but feature rich. Only $5.00 one-time fee

        2. Callipeg: Amazing app. Lots of features. Subscription based or one-time fee of $50

        3. Procreate: Fun for simple animation. $10 one-time fee

         

        All these apps will work perfectly fine with iPads. Depending on what gen your students have you should be able to use an Apple Pencil with it as well. 

         

        Take care,

        Zak

        You can always put in a feature request - be sure to justify the reasons for it in order to have it considered with some weight: https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.html

          I hope animate cc will be come to ipad. We use iPad for professional works. But we have not a professional Animation app on iPad. Adobe is powerfull in this endustry. If not, another app's will be here, on iPad.

            Personal opinion: I don't think so.

              I think they will eventually. I mean they did Photoshop. They're working on Illustrator for the iPad, I think Animate for the iPad Pro will be right around the corner.  I am just guessing.
