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

Twelve 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. when the update contains an important security fix the user should be notified). From analyzing crashes (questionable source), approximately 15% of users run Firefox longer than 12 hours and would be affected (see {{Bug|659425}} for details).

This feature falls primarily in the '''Experience''' category (from the "Discover, Experience, and Connect" vision statement.)

|Feature users and use cases=* Users that seldom restart Firefox

|Feature requirements=* Needs to lessen the amount of times the user sees user interface associated with an application update

* The decision when the notification should be displayed must be controlled remotely (the update xml) and have a default amount of time
