Use adobe flash videos in Apple IPHONES IPADS, IPODS
Last week I bought a new Apple IPAD, I love this product, lot of cool features. Only thing I hate when I want watch some online videos which flash embedded in it. After my online research I found that you can use flash in IPAD if I have different browser because
safari does not support adobe flash videos. So I want share some good application which you can download so that you can enjoy flash in your apple IPOD, I PAD or IPhones. Adobe's Flash player is one of the most widely used tools for delivering audio, video, and animation on the Internet. But the Flash player for iPhone is conspicuously absent.
Here are some cool apps that bring Flash to the iPhone and IPADS. In my experience I love Puffin and Skyfire both are very cool to use.
Puffin
Puffin Browser is the other app on this list that's able to bypass Hulu's blocking of the iPhone. However, once it does, the quality of its Flash playback simply isn't that good. Video looks more like a series of still images than a smooth movie. It's speedy, though, and offers a solid array of other features, so it could be a real contender if its Flash features are shored up.
SkyFire
SkyFire is an interesting case. Rather than trying to actually play Flash movies on your iPhone, when you try to load one, SkyFire's servers take over and automatically convert the Flash file to an iPhone-compatible version and then stream it down to you. It's a relatively young app, and in its early days its servers got overloaded by the heavy-duty video conversion, so we don't have a final grade yet. If it works, though, it could be the best option for bringing Flash to the iPhone.
Flash Browser
Flash Browser copyright Retina Software (P) Ltd.Since it's called Flash Browser, you'd expect this app ($1.99) to be better at playing Flash. Alas, I was never able to get it to play Flash files. Add that to it being very slow and you've got an app that you should skip.
Photon
Photon offers the best Flash playback of all the apps on this list. It achieves this by connecting your iPhone to a remote computer running Flash and then streams its desktop to you. Flash is solid: you'll see some pixelation, but over Wi-Fi, it's acceptable for occasional viewing (3G is a bit worse). Photon can access Hulu or online game sites like Kongregate. Some of its other features are a bit weak, but it's your best bet for Flash.
CloudBrowse
This app that streams a remote desktop session to your iPhone seems aimed at corporate users. That's because not only does that app cost $2.99, it has a $9.99/month subscription attached to it. CloudBrowse is surprisingly fast, but its Flash playback is spotty. Video is jerky and audio gets out of sync quickly--plus, Hulu blocks the browser. A good attempt, but probably not the right choice for the average user.
iSwifter Browser
While Skyfire's Flash integration is aimed at watching Flash videos, iSwifter is aimed squarely at playing Flash games. The browser supports a large number of Flash-based games, including many popular Facebook games. It also comes with a 7-day free trial, so you can try it out and see how well it works with your favorite games.
One drawback to iSwifter is the requirement to use a Wi-Fi connection
