Ice Cream Sandwich does not support for Flash
Version 4.0 of Android, better known as Ice Cream Sandwich, which came on November 14, has no support for Flash videos and also has an application that can play this format on mobile, for now. However, according to the website Slash Gear, Google believes it will soon have an application to solve this problem on devices that have the latest version of the operating system.
And one of the features to different Android for iPhone operating system was that its devices did include Flash, but the new Ice Cream Sandwich debuted without Adobe format as confirmed by Google. “Flash has not been released yet for Ice Cream Sandwich, but from what we know, Adobe will support Flash to Ice Cream Sandwich,” the company said.

With this announcement from Adobe, the previous of Microsoft that would not Flash support in their tablets with Windows 8, and after observing the temporary absence of Flash on the Ice Cream Sandwich, one could say that the trend started by Apple continues to gain strength to implement a new trend, since this format seems to end up disappearing from mobile devices.
