<title>Install the Flash plug-in</title>

<p>Flash is a <em>plug-in</em> for your web browser that allows you to watch videos and use
interactive web pages on some websites. While HTML5, which is a more modern solution, is increasingly
offered, there are still some websites which won't work without Flash.</p>

<p>If you do not have Flash installed, you will probably see a message telling you so when you visit a website
that needs it. Flash is available as a free (but not open-source) download for most web browsers.</p>

<note style="warning">
 <p>Adobe has announced that they will stop updating and distributing the Flash Player at the end
 of 2020. Consequently, for security reasons, the Flash plug-in should not be used after 2020.</p>
</note>

<p>There are two kinds of plug-ins available:</p>

<list>
 <item>
  <p><em>NPAPI</em> for <app>Firefox</app> and other Gecko-based web browsers</p>
 </item>
 <item>
  <p><em>PPAPI</em> for <app>Chromium</app> and other Blink-based web browsers including <app>Opera</app> and
  <app>Vivaldi</app></p>
 </item>
</list>

<note>
 <p>The <app>Google Chrome</app> browser is shipped with Flash bundled, and does not need a plug-in.</p>
</note>

 <title>flashplugin-installer</title>

 <p>The <app>flashplugin-installer</app> package provides the NPAPI plug-in for Firefox.
 <link href="apt:flashplugin-installer">Install the package</link> and restart your browser.</p>

</section>

<section id="adobe-flashplugin">
 <title>adobe-flashplugin</title>

 <p>The <app>adobe-flashplugin</app> package provides both the NPAPI and PPAPI plug-ins, i.e. it provides
 Flash for both Firefox and Chromium like web browsers.</p>

 <steps>
  <item>
   <p>Make sure that the <link xref="addremove-sources#canonical-partner">Canonical Partner repository is activated</link>.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
   <p>Install the <link href="apt:adobe-flashplugin">adobe-flashplugin</link> package.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
   <p>Restart your browser.</p>
  </item>
 </steps>

 <p>Some features of the PPAPI plug-in, such as 3D acceleration and premium video DRM, are not available
 in the NPAPI plugin. If you use Firefox or some other Gecko-based browser and need those features, you
 can install the <app>browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash</app> package. It's a wrapper which makes
 Firefox use the PPAPI plug-in.</p>

 <steps>
  <item>
   <p>Make sure that <app>adobe-flashplugin</app> is installed.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
   <p>Open a terminal window by pressing <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>Alt</key><key>T</key></keyseq> and
   install the <app>browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash</app> package:</p>
   <p><cmd its:translate="no">sudo apt install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash</cmd></p>
  </item>
  <item>
   <p>Restart your browser.</p>
