• Content crashes with "QuickHeal" security software in scdetour.dll@0x2dd77: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1489041 - 20% of content crashes

Release

firefox release summary score: 8.86, Tuesday 2.16

• As early crash data comes in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1487194 stands as #2 top crash overall.

Mobile

• Crash rate is calculated based on usage hours (the time Firefox is actively used).
• Usage hours will be significantly lower on Fennec than on desktop Firefox, so we can't compare mobile rates to desktop rates.

• Release

fennec release summary score: 22.62, Tuesday 27.29

• Top crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1485441 - it appears as if the regressing bug was identified
• New crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1488798 seems to be a build that isn't in the Play Store

• Beta

fennec beta summary score: 31.18, Tuesday 29.76

• • Not enough data yet to report anything significant

• Nightly

fennec nightly summary score: 34.47, Tuesday 44.65
