* Sync web search results confusing because the AMO link shows up and we are advising to not use the Add-on on the AMO page.
* Open question: Are we forcing an update or just letting users self-discover this?
|Feature overview=Firefox Sync has been integrated into the client since version 4 and the Firefox Sync Add-on will not longer be maintained. This is a place plan to end of life the use of the Firefox Sync Add-on. Users in 3.6.* will continue to use the Sync Add-on until they upgrade to FF 4+ and the Sync Add-on will not have an update for 3.6.* users. Users who upgraded to Firefox 4 or greater and who had the Sync Add-on installed still show that the add-on is active, even though Sync is using the integrated client. This is a plan to get Sync add-on users off the Sync add-on and onto the most current version of Sync. Phase 1, is to provide a path for the users to uninstall the Sync add-on.
The benefit of moving users to the current version of Sync is that it is a supported version of the service, which is continuously being worked on.
* Provide Services Support instructions expected behavior. Owner: Jen . Status: Not Started
* Provide Product Planning and PMM the schedule of the plan. Owner: Jen. Status: Not Started
 
|Feature requirements=* Existing add-on users must have a seamless uninstall experience when updating the add-on.
* A user should see some communication as to what just happened.
