How to Add Flash Capability to an iOS Device

Mar 1, 2011 12:58 AM

We all remember that feeling, when we first held our very own iPad—there was an excitement running through your body, and a smile on your face. And you say to yourself, "It's true the iPad can do just about everything."  But as you're surfing the internet, you get a constant screen that says, "!!!Flash not supported!!!".  Then, there you are moping and downloading app after app just to get the iPad to do what Safari should do in the first place. Getting Flash on your iPad or other Apple devices can be done in two ways—jailbreaking your device and voiding your apple care, or just simply download one app. In this how-to article, I will show you how to install Flash the simple way.
