Galaxy tablet and Firefox

#1

Post by Jaguar »

So I got a galaxy tab 3 for Christmas, and I downloaded installed the Firefox app. Everything's working fine but the YouTube videos that are embedded in posts do not show up and in says an add in is required. Does anybody know which one I need?

Thanks.

Don't try to watch in the web browser, watch in the YouTube app for Android. There's a link in here on how to make it work seamlessly. Lots of great tips in this article!

I think the problem is Adobe doesn't make flash for Android any more so it doesn't matter what browser you use. You're out of luck unless you grab an old version somewhere and sideload it on the Android device.

It's good to know there's an extension to use the Youtube app instead. :clapping:
