Really, it’s more about what Apple did with Flash. iOS not supporting it is what killed it.

  Flash being a persistent security hole and memory hog is what killed it. Adobe should have gotten their shit together. Apple saved us from the hell of fixed resolution flash apps and dozens of flash ads on a page.

    Steve Jobs talked about this- when asked by the audience why he wasn't supporting Flash, he said the main thing people will be missing out on is banner ads. And he was mostly right.

    That’s true, but I think the primary reason Apple did not include support for it was that it killed batteries on mobile devices.
