HTML5 by default has shipped and we are currently in the process of ramping up the SEI threshold, per the schedule below.
The computer will be used only for online catalog access in my library. I need to remove the location toolbar, but keep the back buttons and home button. If I use Kiosk mode, I don't have the back buttons. I can set it up so that I have the buttons but not the URL, but a user could right click on the menu bar and re-enable the location bar.
Currently 87.5% of population have an SEI threshold score of 4 and 12.5% has a threshold score of 8 (we do this to measure the impact of the threshold change). By the end of the month we will progress on to the next phase on the ramp and everyone will be at least at 8.

Shipping Schedule
HTML5 by Default was initially rolled out to 1% of Chrome 55 Stable users (December), followed by a full deployment (i.e. to 100% of users) in Chrome 56 Stable (February).
Flash prompting will only be enabled for sites whose Site Engagement Index (SEI) is below a certain threshold. For Chrome 55, starting in January 2017 prompts will only appear for sites where the user’s SEI is less than 1. That threshold will increase to 100 through October 2017, when all Flash sites will require an initial prompt. As a reminder, users will only be prompted once per site.
Here’s a summary of thresholds and % of users:
Site Engagement Threshold | User % Enabled | |
January 2017 | 1 (Stable 55) | 1% (Stable 55), 50% (Beta 56) |
February 2017 | 2 | 100% (Stable 56) |
March 2017 | 4 | 100% |
April 2017 | 8 | 100% |
May 2017 | 16 | 100% |
June 2017 | 32 | 100% |
July 2017 | 32 | 100% |
August 2017 | 32 | 100% |
September 2017 | 64 | 100% |
