Firefox/Features/Lessen App Update Displayed UI: Difference between revisions

To reduce update fatigue, don't display application update notifications and user interface unless neccessary.

Tweleve hours after an update is downloaded the user is told to restart Firefox by the display of the application update user interface. Instead of always notifying after twelve hours and possibly interrupting the user the notification should only be displayed when it is important for the user to apply the update (e.g. the update contains an important security fix the user should be notified).

If there is a pending update it is applied during startup and the updater dialog is displayed. Over the last year there have been several improvements to the updater that have made it apply updates significatnly faster. When the update is applied quickly the updater dialog should not be displayed.
