Skyfire browser a very very hit among iPhone users because it is capable of playing Flash


Here is a thing which how much iPhone users love Adobe Flash. Skyfire browser, pseudo-Flash-capable browser who got approval after two long months for the Apple app store is DOWN mere hours after its debut.

Do you know why?? Skyfire didn't expect the response they would get for their apps.

Skyfire said that demand for a Flash video workaround is apparently so high that the company's having server issues and decided to pull the app rather than introduce new users to a sub-par experience.

Skyfire assures us that it's adding servers as quickly as it can, but didn't provide an ETA on when we might see the app once more.

Skyfire complying to the iPhone's Flash restrictions, the browser actually transcodes the video in a way that lets the phone only see HTML5, and it compresses all videos by about 75 percent in the process to ease bandwidth concerns.

The company also notes that Hulu is currently blocked but that "scores of other premium sites are supported."

Skyfire also points out that the browser has more than just Flash going for it -- it's a full-fledged Webkit browser in its own right, and packs a few other tricks like easy sharing to Facebook and Twitter, and a so-called Facebook Quickview mode.

It is being sold for $ 2.99
