It includes a wide array of special effects and animation tools, mainly used to create motion graphics and add special effects to your videos, help you create stunning animations using text, images, sounds and videos, and export your work to multiple media formats.

To a great extent, the decline of Adobe Flash is not the fault of the Flash technology itself, but because the known and unknown vulnerabilities of Adobe Flash Player are countless, very serious, and hard to prevent. As a consequence, in January 2016, this classic 2D animation authoring tool Adobe Flash Professional CC with 20 years of development history was officially renamed to Adobe Animate CC. At this point, the whole Internet formally started to weed Flash out (of course, the initiator is still Google Chrome).
