GoAnimate for schools

On June 30, 2019, support and services ended for GoAnimate for Schools. GoAnimate for Schools was built on older technology (Flash) that will no longer be supported by all major browsers beginning in 2020. In preparation for this, we decided to retire GoAnimate for Schools instead of rewriting it using newer technology.

Vyond does not offer a direct replacement for this product. If you are looking for a similar platform, we strongly encourage you to find one that is committed to safeguarding the personal information of children. Good questions to ask are: Are you COPPA compliant? Are you GDPR compliant?

Business Friendly is a theme by Vyond/GoAnimate/GoAnimate4Schools, that was introduced on March 1, 2012. It went on to become the new major and default theme for Vyond/GoAnimate, and the most used theme to still be around, after the old themes were retired on January 4, 2016 for the original Vyond/GoAnimate website. And on July 26, 2016 for GoAnimate4Schools. Alongside Whiteboard Animation, Business Friendly is the only original theme to be HTML5-compatible and get added on the Vyond Studio player.
