Mobile theme with AMP?

Hi
Just want to find out if I run the mobile website plugin, do I need to run AMP plugin too?
Or is the AMP plugin only there for when you don’t use the mobile plugin?

I have both enabled but not sure if I should deactivate AMP because I am using the mobile plugin?

Or can I run both?

Slightly confused with this

Although I am not a developer, AMP is known as accelerated mobile pages. It is separate from the mobile version of your website. Just beware that although amp is great for ranking and search for mobile users, it does disable some features from the regular version of your site, for me it disables the main site menu … For some this is perfectly fine and most sites that have amp do not have a menu, but just know that. The short answer to your question is yes, you can use both. All AMP does it strip down the post so it loads faster. Your post may look a little different than your regular mobile version of the site. Also know that once you enable amp, that is pretty much all google will show for mobile users and going back after you enable amp can be tricky

Thank you for some explanation. I’m starting to think that because I already run the mobile plugin (and created separate mobile pages) I can disable the AMP plugin?

In terms of SEO, having site AMP ready is better than having mobile theme.
