Publishing for a mobile Device
You can also publish Flash content for mobile devices running on Android or on
Apple’s iOS, such as the iPhone or iPad. To publish Flash content for a mobile
device, you target AIR for Android or AIR for iOS to create an application that
viewers download and install on their devices.
Creating an app for mobile devices is a little more complicated than creating an
application for the desktop because you have to obtain specific developer cer-
tificates for distribution. Moreover, you have to factor in the additional time and
effort required for testing and debugging on a separate device. However, Flash
Professional CS6 features a mobile device simulator that can help make that testing
and debugging easier. The simulator can emulate specific mobile device interac-
tions such as tilting the device (using the accelerometer), touch gestures such as
swiping and pinching, or even using the geolocation functions.
