Just as announced last week, Skyfire submitted their mobile browser to the Apple App Store, and announced the move officially via their blog.

According to the company, the solution comes with support for Flash videos playback, while also complying to all the guidelines Apple set on the HTML5 open-video standards on Apple devices.

Moreover, Skyfire notes that their browser is the first solution built specifically for the social media generation, thus being able to deliver a faster mobile Internet experience, as well as Flash support and more.

“We’re excited to submit a mobile browser for iPhone and iPod Touch that addresses Apple’s concerns regarding Flash deployment on mobile devices,” explains Jeff Glueck, CEO of Skyfire.

The launch of Skyfire 2.0 for iPhone follows the release of a solution for handsets running under Google's Android operating system, which already became one of the most popular applications in the Android Market, with around a million downloads in its first three months.

Some of the main features of Skyfire 2.0 for iPhone include:
- Flash Video –The “Video” icon enables users to play millions of Flash videos around the web that otherwise do not play on mobile. This unlocks content trapped behind those error messages with question marks and blue Legos by transcoding the Flash content into HTML5 on Skyfire’s servers.
- Related Content – The “Explore” icon brings the most relevant content on the Internet to a user’s fingertips based on what they are viewing at the time. The Explore button pulls video, buzz, news, images and other sites from the web based on what is on the current page.

The new software solution was developed in accordance with Apple guidelines, and includes a WebKit browser core shared with Safari, as well as h.264 adaptive streaming.

“Rather than enabling Flash, Skyfire will translate videos into Apple standards. Skyfire supports HTML5 but at the same time, we recognize that the transition to HTML5 for 100 million Flash publishers will take years,” Jeff Glueck stated.

All in all, it seems that iPhone users are about to get a new, highly appealing mobile browser for their devices, though it still remains to be seen whether Apple would approve the inclusion of this browser in the App Store.
