One of AMOS BASIC's disadvantages, stemming from its [[Atari ST]] lineage, was its incompatibility with the Amiga's [[AmigaOS|operating system]] functions and interfaces. Instead, AMOS BASIC controlled the computer directly, which caused programs written in it to have a non-standard user interface, and also caused compatibility problems with newer versions of hardware.
 
Today, the language has declined in popularity along with the Amiga computer for which it was written. Despite this, a small community of enthusiasts are still using it. The [[source code]] to AMOS was released around 2001 under a [[BSD licenses|BSD style license]] by [[Clickteam]], a company that includes the original programmer.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://clickteam.com/eng/downloadcenter.php?i=58 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071130053321/http://clickteam.com/eng/downloadcenter.php?i=58 | archive-date=2007-11-30 | title=Amos & Stos » Main Download}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://github.com/AOZ-Studio/AMOS-Professional-Official | publication-date=2020-04-26 | first=François | last=Lionet | via=AOZ Studio | access-date=2024-11-29 | website=GitHub | title=AOZ-Studio/AMOS-Professional-Official: The official source code of AMOS Professional on the Amiga}}</ref>
