For mobile

 

Bring better apps to more mobile platforms more easily with Flash Player’s extensive support for mobile development and deployment across Android, Blackberry tablet, and iOS.

Support for mobile platforms

Support for mobile platforms

Deliver content to mobile devices. Targeted mobile operating systems include Android and Blackberry Tablet OS. A porting kit and Linux® based reference implementation is available to partners to port Flash Player to other platforms.

Stage Video hardware acceleration

Enjoy beautiful, smooth playback of high-definition H.264 video across the web in both embedded and full-screen mode. Adobe Flash Player leverages the Stage Video hardware accelerated video pipeline to provide higher frame rates and less power consumption.

Multitouch and gestures

Take advantage of the latest hardware and operating system user interaction capabilities using new ActionScript 3.0 APIs for multitouch and native gesture events. Create multitouch-aware content for a wide range of devices.

Accelerometer input

Leverage accelerometer input for user input control and to control screen orientation. Read acceleration values in x, y, and z axes from native device accelerometer sensors, and specify the rate of accelerometer updates to conserve battery life.

H.264 video hardware decoding

Deliver smooth, high-quality video with minimal overhead across supported devices. Hardware decoding offloads tasks from the CPU, improves video playback, reduces use of system resources, and preserves battery life.

Audio hardware decoding

Reduce CPU load and improve battery life on mobile devices by using hardware to accelerate audio decoding, avoiding CPU-intensive parsing and decompression.

Optimized SWF management (mobile only)

Optimize SWF loading and playback for mobile CPU and memory limitations to provide a better user experience. SWF playback automatically pauses when not in view to reduce CPU, battery, and memory use.

Sleep mode (mobile only)

Reduce CPU and battery consumption on mobile devices by slowing down the Flash Player timer when the mobile device goes into screen-saver or similar mode, with no interruption in audio/video playback. Incoming phone calls pause Flash Player.

Deeper integration with the Android browser rendering engine (requires Android 3.0.1 or later)

Take advantage of faster and better rendering of rich, interactive web content for a smoother and more responsive browsing experience, thanks to deeper integration of Flash Player and the enhanced Android 3.0 browser.

Enhanced performance for the latest smartphones and tablets

Experience performance improvements designed to take advantage of next-generation processors in new smartphones and tablets. Flash Player intelligently leverages multicore and GPU technologies to smoothly deliver FLV files.

Automatic soft keyboard support

Enjoy a more optimized experience on your touchscreen device interacting with rich content that requires keyboard input. Simplify development of apps that require keyboard input, making it easier to optimize desktop apps for mobile devices.

Mobile text input

Input text using native device virtual keyboards with TextField support if no physical keyboard is detected. A virtual keyboard is automatically raised and lowered when editing text on mobile devices to enable unobstructed and intuitive text editing.

Multitouch and gestures

Take advantage of the latest hardware and operating system user interaction capabilities using new ActionScript 3.0 APIs for multitouch and native gesture events. Create multitouch-aware content for a wide range of devices.
