Hi,

Flash Player isn't supported on mobile devices, and hasn't been supported on Android devices since 2012 (An Update on Flash Player and Android ). To see the list of supported devices, refer to Tech specs | Adobe Flash Player .

The alternative is to use a browser, such as Puffin, that renders Flash in the cloud.

Thanks!

Flash player is not technically supported for mobile devices anymore, but there is an archive of old versions of flash player for android that may work for your device.

Archived Adobe Flash Player versions

Honestly I hope Adobe releases all of the source code for Flash and Shockwave content players.

I'd be surprised if the archived versions will work on newer Android OS versions.  Additionally, those versions are over 5 yrs old and have NOT received any security fixes since they were released.  It's strongly advised to not install any old version of Flash for Android due to this.  Instead, use a modern browser that renders Flash in the cloud.

The question has been answered by my colleague.  Flash Player is not supported on any mobile device (Android, iOS, Windows, etc).  Only option is to use a browser that renders Flash in the cloud.
