Adobe: No Flash for Android Chrome Beta
Feb 7, 2012, 3:53 PM by Eric M. Zeman
Adobe today posted a reminder that it is no longer developing its Flash Player for mobile devices. As such, Adobe's plug-ins are not available for the newly-released Chrome Beta browser for Google's Android 4.0 platform. Flash content will not play in the Chrome beta browser on Android phones or tablets. Adobe is, however, working with Google and others to bring HTML5-powered content to Chrome and other browsers.

No flash? Seriously sounds kinda lame like an IPhone?
I love that my LG Revolution has flash. Use it all the time. Wouldn't want to update or get a device without it. Would be like owning a puny 3.5" screen, weak 800MHz, fixed memory, sealed-for-life battery, almost every app costs money, lame 3G only IPhone. What a sacrifice!! 🤣
+1!!!

I'm pretty sure every iPhone out there wishes their phone performed just like your LG Revolution, and are envious of all three people who purchased it!

I hear ya. But the truth is that an overwhelming amount of money is spent by consumers in the US, and elsewhere around the world, on a device with a 3.5" screen, ~800MHz processor, fixed memory, sealed battery, 3G-only, and expensive apps/mp3s and as...

Hey! Hey! Remember when.....
Remember everyone saying HTML5 'wasn't ready for prime time' , even though, you know, it kind of already is and Flash has always performed like garbage in the mobile realm?
And remember when Andy Rubin got up and touted Flash as a huge benefit to the Android ecosystem?
And remember how RIM touted Flash as the huge benefit to the Playbook over the iPad?
Remember? I sure do! And iOS is dead now and users are unhappy and protested and forced Apple to open Flash into its ecosystem??
Oh wait.

the lament of the Iphone user... your device stinks without Flash but you refuse to acknowledge but delude yourself
Don't remind me... I'm still trying to forget...
Good riddens!
Can we just please kill Flash now?
I never thought I'd say this, but Apple was right to exclude Flash. Anytime my browser crashes (phone or desktop) it's always when Flash content is loading.
I disabled flash from my Chrome browser on my PC, and have not seen a crash in ages. I just wish more websites supported HTML5.

Is there some sort of timeline for HTML5 to be implemented?

No, it is NEVER right for a company to deny its customers their right to choose what programs they want to run, sorry....I don't care if Adobe Flash is the worst program ever written in the history of the Milky Way galaxy, if I want to run it, Steve J...
