This is a follow up to my earlier blog.

Do you wish to use your iPhone to access Flash based applications? So far you are out of luck. According to the recent news article from CNET, "Flash 10 coming to most smartphones in 2010". And iPhone is not on the list.

But why wait? With the upcoming Citrix receiver for iPhone, you will be able to run Flash based applications not only from iPhone but also from many other popular mobile devices. Initially the focus will be to support business applications.

The Citrix technology also adds another additional layer of security by only transmitting the display to the mobile devices. A typical flash based business intelligence report may contain sensitive data. If downloaded directly to a mobile device, the data may be vulnerable to leaks. For business users,the added security may be important.

Here is a quick preview of what is to come.

Here is the iPhone friendly version

A business intelligence application is demonstrated above. You can find the demo application at this Adobe web site.

If you know any Flash enabled web application/sites that may be useful when accessed from iPhone, could you let me know by posting comments?

Please check out our iPhone project community site for more details.

    We keep hearing about the soon to be released, imminent, upcoming release of the Citrix Receiver by the 1st Quarter of 2009. It's the end of February.

    Has Apple/Citrix provided any release target dates?

    I suppose I'm just tired of seeing the top free apps on the App Store taken up by Fart Noise generators and Yo Mama joke apps. 

    Although the iphone/itouch makes an adequate game console, there is a large portion of users looking for the Citrix Receiver and Adobe Flash Player to be a business game changer on the iphone.

    Thanks.

      Hi,

      Thanks for the feedback. I used the post as a test to see if anyone is really viewing our blog on iPhones. 

      I've included a link to iPhone friendly version below the embedded video.

      This is another reminder of the lack of Flash support in iPhone.

      Regards,

      Ray
