Adobe confirms Flash Player is dead for mobile devices

Adobe confirms Flash Player is dead for mobile devices

Some people are hoping for it, while others are expecting it in one way or another, and now here's the confirmation: Flash Player for mobile devices is officially dead. Adobe is reaffirming its commitment to “aggressively contribute” to HTML5, a platform with broader support and capabilities than Flash was ever able to deliver. Adobe will of course also be pushing developers to work in its AIR platform for a more native experience, and the company will continue to work on Flash Player for desktop operating systems, but one can't help but see the platform as a whole standing on fairly shaky footing at this point.
