Keeping your Flash set to Tap to Play is important for your security on the web because it ensures that you decide what plugins are trusted. However, you can customize Firefox for Android to enable Flash by default for all web sites or to completely disable plugins for all websites, as follows:

#Tap Plugins in the Content section.
#: The Plugins context menu appears.
#To enable Flash to play for all websites by default, tap Enabled.
