Flash?

[silvertemplar]

If you don't want to dish out the $5 for Skyfire, there's a "video only" version of Skyfire called "Skyfire videoQ" for $2 . Basically you browse in Safari and whenever you hit a Flash video you send the link into SkyFire VideoQ . That will give you a good indication of what Skyfire can and can't do....and is essentially what Skyfire does anyway. Advantage is, you can stay in Safari for most of your browsing needs (and i like Safari for the most part)

anyway as others mentioned, the best flash browsers [without remote desktopping to your own pc] i've found so far is

1. iSwifter [Plays anything, videos and flash applications]

2. Photon & Puffin (they're very much the same to me in terms of compatibility for me)

3. Skyfire & Skyfire VideoQ [videos only]

Now i must add, i've had the most success with Skyfire when it comes to playing videos. Yes, you wait like 20 seconds for a video to start, but the FPS and Sound is solid. Photon/Puffin on the other hand, videos are slow and choppy (especially higher quality clips) . iSwifter which seems to handle most flash sites have sound quality issues on my end (poor sound quality) , if i could fix the sound it will be perfect.

So right now , i use iSwifter for sites that have flash games or flash applications (like booking a movie ticket within a flash website) . Skyfire seems to the good for simply playing a video.

Most workarounds will be. iPad was never meant to support flash. Most solutions will be unpredictable and sluggish.

Splashtop has a lite version that you can try for free.

Look it up on the Appstore.

Flash doesn't exist on the iPad. This is why we read up on what we intend to purchase...

This is sad but true. Always do your research before purchasing.

Does anyone know how to download flash player for iPad 2

Does anyone know how to get flash player for iPad 2

You can't. Ipad doesn't support flash. There are apps that you can try, but most are sluggish and unpredictable.

Flash! UGH!

I know the answer, but Steve needs to stop this feud with a
adobe and let us have flash. I love my iPad, but no flash is making me look at other platforms.

You'll find plenty of existing threads on this topic, so have a look at other Member's views.

As there's so many existing threads on the iPad and Flash.

The feud will never end.....I haven't a need for flash in months....and if I ABSOLUTELY needed to use it then splashtop is what I use.

Some sites need for Flash player. But IPad can't handle it. Now what??
