I am using an iPad and get a flash required notification when I attempt to record an audio. How do I work around this?
@khbower I'm no iPad or iOS expert but I did see this guide How do I record audio using Flash in the Rich Content Editor as an instructor?. Are you using Safari on your iPad? Do you get this prompt on Chrome or another browser with your iPad?

I am having the same problem with my IPad. I have tried Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. I don’t think Flash works on an IPad. I am hoping someone has a work around.
I came to the conclusion I could not load Flash on my IPad (or IPhone)
without loading yet again another browser and use my desk top Mac. I
encountered this for my French class no less in May.

Flash is not supported on any mobile device. Not Droid nor Apple iOS.
Flash is an Adobe product. Adobe will cease to support Flash effective 12/31/2020. Shortly afterwards, Microsoft will reportedly release a Windows update to remove Flash from all Windows computers. I have not heard what Apple will do with the MacOS.
Adobe announced that they were discontinuing Flash several years ago.
Unless Canvas has a solution waiting in the wings, Canvas will cease to be fully operational by the end of 2020.
