I have been told that there is a flash player that can be obtained for the apple ipad called photon flash player. Does anyone know if this would allow me to play bridge on bbo with my ipad?

I tried it. I would not recommend Photon to solve the flash problem unless you are desperate. (It only costs $4.95, non-refundable, to form your own opinion.)

It does work (marginally), but it seemed pretty impractical for BBO (and for that matter even viewing Amazon instant videos - kept prompting whether you were still using flash!).

I also suspect that the BBO audio does not work on it. But I did not test that completely enough to say it definitively.

That said, the non-audio vugraphs are fine WITHOUT using Photon. You don't even have to login! :) You also can't chat watching the vugraph on iPad.


My results were on iPad (3).
