Adobe Flash was always a PC based technology - it was designed to run on devices that had keyboards and mice - such as your Windows, Mac or Linux computers. For a short period of time an older version of Flash was actually supported on the Android operating system, but it stopped getting updated in 2012 (read: Adobe: An Update on Flash Player and Android).
