Web Workers are available in Chrome for Android (which requires Android 4.0 or greater). They work fine, e.g. on the Nexus 7.

- davidarkemp2 14y agoHowever, the problem with Android is version fragmentation - a lot of users have phones that they can't trivially upgrade to ICS, and therefore can't use Chrome for Mobile/Android. Asking someone to root their phone and install a custom ROM, and then install a different browser is a bit crazy if you ask me.
- CrazedGeek 14y agoTrue, but both Firefox for Android and Opera Mobile support web workers and work on Android 2.2+. Installing an ICS rom is wholly unnecessary.
