Adobe Flash Plugin for Android


when adobe on bandwagon? android dominant os mobile devices more 81% of smartphone market of november 2013. why did adobe drop android browser plugins, chrome? why did same thing ios? understand ios has smaller market share android , if ios dropped understand. drop out of mobile devices running android? large market annoy. think people stop browsing web on phones , android  tablets , windows devices used? confusing action take.

 

adobe, thinking?

android dropped support flash last year (june 2012). wasn't other way around.

and... adobe didn't drop flash player chrome. microsoft has done ie, google undertook task of embedding browser, , maintaining separately activex or standard plugins.

going 2006, when apple released first iphone , ios 1, steve jobs insistent made incompatible flash player because (in words) "playing flash content processor consumptive , kills batteries, , shortening battery life in mobile devices". adobe never "dropped" flash player ios, because there never one. have been unbelievably stupid spend money , time developing plugin incomaptible format.

android came along little while after ios, reason dropping flash last year same.
adobe continued developing "security updates" flash player worked older versions of android, ended in september of year. adobe not continue development of product incompatible format.

 

android recommends either "dolphin" or "puffin" browser googleplay store (both free). use "server side" technology play flash content without taxing tablet or phone's processor.
