Can we use Flash content in an Android application?


Will Flash content work in applications on Android Jelly Bean, as it's not supporting Flash... Share your knowledge about this..


Solution

  • Whether mobile devices support Flash / AIR player runtime plugins or not, apps may always be packaged with Captive Runtime.

    A captive runtime bundle is a package that includes your application code along with a dedicated version of the runtime. An application packaged in this manner uses the bundled runtime instead of the shared runtime installed elsewhere.

    Users can then run the application even on a device that does not already have AIR installed on it. Depending on the platform to which you are exporting the package, you can use a captive runtime or a shared runtime.

    Captive runtime is mandatory for iOS devices.

    Flash apps packaged with captive runtime may be deployed regardless of mobile browser Flash integration.
