ck_kent Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Adobe confirms it won't support Flash on Android 4.1, stops new Flash installs from Google Play on August 15th Adobe was very public about dropping mobile Flash last fall. In case that wasn't clear enough, the developer just drew a line in the sand: Android 4.1 doesn't, and won't ever, get certification for Flash. The company is stopping short of saying that Flash won't run, but it's evident that Adobe won't help you if the web browser plugin doesn't install (or breaks in spectacular fashion) on that Nexus 7. Just to underscore the point, the firm is also halting new installations of Flash from Google Play as of August 15th. Security updates and other vital patches will continue on for existing users. Any fresh downloads after that fateful day, however, will have to come from Adobe's mausoleum for old versions. The company had already said that HTML5 was the way forward on phones and tablets -- now we know just how quickly it's backing up that claim. :view: Source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator DKT27 Posted June 29, 2012 Administrator Share Posted June 29, 2012 Well is this a good thing or a bad thing? Bad if you ask me. I personally am not ready to see Flash phase out so fast. Nor I think mobile applications are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor I think mobile applications are. I were thinking the same. Ah well I'll miss Flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
