Since Apple loosened their terms again, is it posible to develop a game in FLash CS5 and publish it on the Apple App Store?
Are there actually any real apps / games on the App Store that were build on Flash?

I have some flash files and i need to integrate those files in iPad app. i searched lot but everyone's answer is
- iOS will not support flash.
- even if you integrate flash files app store will not accept.
But my app is not for app store this is an enterprise app. Instead of integrating flash files we can do all the animation in our objective-c itself. But client is demanding to integrate flash files in iPad app. Is there any alternate solution. Please guide me.
Sure you can run Flash apps on iOS, you just have to build them using AIR:
Adobe AIR is a cross-platform runtime that enables you to use your
existing Flash/ActionScript or HTML/JavaScript development skills and
tools to build and deploy applications, games, and videos outside the
browser and on mobile devices.
Here is the specific resources page on how to build Flash ActionScript 3 apps targeting any iOS device.
The beauty of AIR is that if the code of your app is well organized, you can reuse most of it for any build being it for Android, iOS, Blackberry, or even a desktop app (windows and macosx) or the web.
Hybrid way:
Flash to html5 conversion then open HTML document using webview
Google swiffy:
Swf to HTML 5
Note:
maximum of 1 mb only be converted at present

Adobe wallaby:
Fla to HTML 5
Note:
At present cs5 only supported.the lower versions have to be resaved in cs5 to convert.

Native way:
Adobe air:
One could run actioscript flash content directly in ios devices.
Note:
At present you could make stand alone ios apps only you can't integrate with existing app.

It is a detour only, but you could install the Photon browser and call it from your app.
My client wants to integrate few games to his iPhone application. For this concern we are ready to buy the paid or we can use the free games as well.
As far as I know the flash isn't supported in iPhone, can you show me a way how should I begin? Is there any way to play flash games on iPhone or are there any games you would like to share with me which can be integrated in iPhone.
There is no way to use Flash on a non-jailbroken iPhone.
I remember that I've heard about a flash cs5 feature which lets the developers export their project to iphone (.ipa file) and pretty much make games for the iphone using actionscript 3,
Is that really possible to do?
I've also heard that now in order to develop games for the iphone I could use the adobe AIR
I have no idea what or where to go to start,
if it's really possible to do so with Flash CS5 then I'd get it,
But I'd be glad if you guys could give me some direction.
Thanks
Yes now you can use Flash CS5 and AIR Sdk to do the development.. Its 100% legal.
I would like to develop a simple contact list iPhone application in Flash CS5.
I'm a web developer, and I have no experience with iPhone yet.
How can I save the data of contacts? As I know, flash just post the data to a page, but what page, if it is an app?
It's a off-line app, where the database should be?

Hai everyone, may I ask whether iphone can support .swf file or not? This is because I have developed a mini game using Adobe Flash Lite by using action script 2.0 and save as .fla file and export as .swf file. If can, can give me some guidances on how to import .swf to iphone. Thank a lot.:)
The iPhone and other iOS devices cannot run Flash apps (at least not without being jailbroken first). See http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ for Apple's official position on Flash.
Somedays the iPhone can support flash, others it can not. It all depends how Apple are feeling at the moment...
Currently the only way to run flash on iPhone is to jailbreak it first.
