requires Adobe Flash
promytiusFebruary 3, 2013
Pros
DLs ok, installs OK, almost...
Cons
WILL NOT RUN unless you already have Adobe Flash Player...
Summary
Note: since I refuse to have Adobe Flash on my PC with their obnoxious "same-save-me" messages any more, I could not get this program to run. So what's the point? It's not a substitute, it is an ADOBE Add-On. Since I was looking for a replacement, this is useless to me, or anyone looking to get rid of Adobe once and for all. The search continues...
Yes it works fine and good ... but

Pros
Does the job. Plays SWF files easily and well Simply to install and use
Cons
Simply basic No features at all Full screen is not full screen
Summary
If you just need a basic player to simply view your SWF files then this is great. But if you are creative or like to play or enhance etc then this is not the tool. Good playback for viewing but that is it. No frills at all.
Play swf easily!

Pros
Easy, lightweight, free install that is versatile and works perfectly. Couldn't find anything that did this in the past.
Cons
Might not work with Windows 7, but since I still have XP that doesn't matter (yet).
Summary
Periodically look for something to play saved swf (Shockwave Flash) files. Was giving up hope something would turn up at all, let alone something as easy and versatile as this! And FREE, and light on system resources. Thanks, Swift Player! But now I won't be able to upgrade my system from XP to 7 since -- at least according to the specs -- you don't support that LOL!

Pros
Easy to install, runs flash movies without problems.
Cons
UI looks a little plain.

ArtemusBlackDecember 12, 2008
Pros
Minimalistic, quick to load. Free and it has what's needed in playing .swf files except...
Cons
The ability to change movie quality to view how it looks in other modes.
Summary
Will replace my current player, hoping for the minor improvement.
cool idea

Does what it says on the tin
robcboffMay 21, 2005
Pros
Standalone and simple. Can't get any easier than that. Just click the SWF file and open. That's it. Nice and quick tool for those interested in SWF files (or something like that).
Cons
Why can't you move the slider frame per frame? Wouldn't that be good?
