Google and Apple removed adobe flash player from their devices. Still, there are a lot of websites built with flash based videos and addictive games. The Android users have to depend on flash player to play videos and games hosted on these web sites. This article we are going to demonstrate how to manually install Flash Player on Android tablet or Android Phone. We mentioned an article for a list of iOS browsers supporting Flash Plyer for iPhone and iPad devices. Most of these flash based browsers are not free, and some of them need to pay an annual fee for using their browser on your Android device. This article shows you how to install Android manually into your Android device instead of depending on the paid flash based browser. These steps are relatively easy, and you can complete the manual installation of Android flash player with a few comfortable way that we described in this article with screen shots.
1. Prepare Android Device to Install Android Flash Player.
First of all, you have to allow Andorid device to install APK from third party sites. This permission is required for your device to install adobe flash player APK file directly from adobe.com.
Make sure your Android connected to the Internet. Go to the Android phone or tablet Settings > Security > select Unknown Sources > Click OK to confirm and close settings.
2. Download Adobe Flash Player APK to Install.
Now open your browser on Android device, use Android built-in browser or chrome that you already have on your device. Click the link Adobe Flash Player Archive page and scroll down to reach Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives. Select the one below the new release (usually stable version) of Adobe Flash Player from that list.

Once you install the Dolphin browser, open the Dolphin browser setting by tapping on dolphin icon on right top. Go to Setting > Web content > Flash Player and set to “Always on” or “On Demand.”
Close the dolphin browser and reopen with your flash based website and enjoy the moves and games on your tablet.
