What's New

Regarding Video:

Skyfire attempts to offer additional browsing benefits by working to enable Flash video on iPad. Flash video playback is a complicated problem to solve (There is a reason why it is not offered native on iPad). As a reminder (clearly stated in the AppStore description) Skyfire does NOT render Flash video that is hidden behind pages with Javascript or proprietary video players, Flash animations, website interaction (buttons), games or educational Flash tools. May we kindly ask that prior to leaving a negative rating on iTunes, please confirm that the issue you are experiencing is not related to these traits and please reach out to us at www.getsatisfaction.com.skyfire_iphone.

To engage missing video with Skyfire, browse to a page with Flash video (Disregard and do not click on the "You Need Flash Warning Download" message) > Instead, click on the "Video" icon in the top right-hand corner of the the Skyfire top toolbar > Skyfire will then analyze the page to determine if there is accessible Flash video code > If the code is available (and not hidden behind proprietary/publisher code, Skyfire will present a "Play" button – and you are on your way to enjoying Flash video on your iPad.

Please realize we do our best to offer support for as many websites and video players as we can and we thank you for your continued support!

More great things to come from Skyfire in 2013! - Happy Browsing!

===== Skyfire’s Top Award-Winning Features =====
Install Now to Watch Flash Videos
✔ Skyfire allows you to watch Flash videos that otherwise don’t work on iPhone! Ever see a 'black rectangle' instead of a video while browsing with the native iPhone browser? That's when you need Skyfire!
âś” Enjoy videos from sites across the web that have not been optimized for iPhone such as live streaming video (breaking news, sports, concerts & more), South Park, The Daily Show, niche websites, and more.
âś” More than 200,000 websites are supported

Facebook and Twitter Integration
âś” Try the 'Popular' feature to see what your friends and the Facebook community have found most likeable on the site you are browsing, or 'Fireplace' to quickly use the power of Skyfire to showcase only the media content on Facebook that your friends are sharing.

==== Limitations (Please Read) ====
✔ Videos may take up to 10-20 seconds to start – this is how we encode Flash video into a format your iPhone can support; this also compresses the video and saves you valuable data megabytes as well.
âś” Skyfire supports Flash videos! (Flash animations, Flash-based apps, Facebook & Zynga games etc. are not supported)
✔ Skyfire can’t support every site (over 200,000 sites are enabled, but not all video players are supported and some sites like ESPN3 do not support 3rd party browsing) . Any site that hides its Flash video behind a user name and password is not something we can support; there are also some sites that “geo-block” content and don’t allow it to be played in certain countries.

===== Support & Feedback =====
✔ Please come to our support pages at https://getsatisfaction.com/skyfire_for_iphone if you are not satisfied with any aspect of the product. If you just mention it in the App Store, our support team has no way to respond to you to resolve your issue. We’d love the opportunity to help.
