From what I am hearing, it was a complete fabrication. Speculating a bit further on our own, we are guessing that it would be pretty convenient for Flash support to be introduced alongside the iPhone SDK, wouldn’t you say? Now, we know that there isn’t much information here, but you also know how strong our sources are too - Flash on the iPhone is coming, just take our word for it, okay?ĮDIT: We already have had a couple people ask about the supposed battery and CPU issues that were holding Flash back from being included on the iPhone in the first place. Well, we’ve just got word from a reliable source that Flash support is on its way to the iPhone, and it should be coming very, very soon. We’ve had to make do without Flash for almost eight months, and YouTube even had to convert a bunch of their catalog to H.264 in order for the service to be enjoyed on the iPhone. We’ve been waiting for Flash support to hit the iPhone ever since…well…it launched.
although Google's supplied YouTube app can play YouTube videos.EDIT: The Skyfire browser for iPhone allows you to view Flash video directly on your iPhone.ĮDIT: Here are the details on Apple and Adobe collaborating on an iPhone Flash player.ĮDIT: Here is an update on the whole Flash on iPhone situation. Adobe Flash and the iPhone have never quite gotten along, but that doesn't mean iPhone users have to live without it. Iii) A plug-in is needed to display this content, etc. Ii) You need to install Flash player to play this video, etc. I) Media playback is unsupported on your device, etc. "Puffin" browser does not appear in Play Store (location sensitive?)
11.1.115.81.apk from Adobe archive.Ģ) I have installed Firefox Beta, Dolphin, Boat Browser and Opera mini a number of times each.ģ) I have set all of these browsers to always have flash on etc.Ĥ) I have tried the browser option to 'request desktop version' both On and Off respectively.ĥ) I have tried setting the 'User Agent' option to use both Android and Desktop respectively.
I can't view news videos or YouTube videos using a number of Android browsers.ġ) I have installed Flash Player for Android 4.0 v. I was kindly given a Google Nexus 7-ii for Christmas which updated to Android v.4.2.2. Check this link on your phone to confirm that Flash is up and running. To enable Flash content all the time, select “Always on,” or to enable it selectively on each page, choose “On demand.” Or on Android 2.2 or 2.3, go to Menu > Settings (sometimes Menu > More > Settings), where you’ll find the “Enable plug-ins” option. On Android 3.0 or later, go to Menu (three dots next to the address bar on some phones) > Settings > Advanced > Enable plug-ins.When Flash is installed, head into your phone’s stock browser (again, Google Chrome won’t support your newly-installed Flash apk).Tap “Install” on the next screen to confirm. Once that’s done, pull down the notification area and tap on the file to install it.
On your phone or tablet, download the Flash for Android application downloader. (It'll then download the file directly from Adobe.) Multimedia tools downloads - Adobe Flash Player Standalone by Adobe Systems Incorporated and many more programs are available for instant and free download.On Android 4.x, you’ll find it under Settings > Security. You’ll need to check the box marked “Unknown sources.” On Android 2.2, 2.3 or 3.x, this is found under Settings > Applications. First, you’ll need to tell your device it’s OK to install apps from sources other than Google Play.The process of getting Flash for Android on a device that doesn’t already have it is pretty simple. Check your app drawer for “Browser” or “Internet.”
If you’re on Jelly Bean, check that you have a stock browser installed besides Google Chrome, as Chrome for Android doesn’t support Flash. Check Settings > About phone / About tablet to see what you’re running.
You’ll need a phone or tablet running Android 2.2 (Froyo) to 4.1 ( Jelly Bean).
