Open issues/risks

`

Stage 1: Definition

1. Feature overview

This feature aims to provide a marketing channel to improve user engagement on Android. Some evidence suggests that system notifications can improve stickiness without negatively affecting user feedback; this channel aims to provide a mechanism for delivering those system notifications.

The 2012 Firefox Mobile goal is to achieve 4.2 M ADIs.

2. Users & use cases

  • Reactivation - Reactivate 2 - 4% of installed-but-non-users into an incremental 530,000 – 1M ADIs
  • User Research (surveys, etc)
  • App or System update messages (not necessarily confirmed as a use case)

3. Dependencies

`

4. Requirements

  • P1 - Enable messaging to users who have not used Firefox Mobile in X (what?) period of time
  • P1 - Enable messaging with a call to action in the message
  • P1 - Must be opt in
  • P1 - Can be opted out
  • P1 - Must work for Firefox Mobile Beta
  • P2 - Must work for Firefox Mobile GA

Non-goals

This service is not for the Aurora and Nightly channels of Firefox Mobile.

Note that Google Cloud Messaging is not a suitable implementation strategy for this, for various reasons.

5. Functional specification

`

6. User experience design

8. Reviews

Security review

l10n is an open question; campaign messages need to be localized.

Accessibility

Nothing special required for Android.
