Welcome to Roland Tanglao, the new Firefox for Android support lead!


Input is still down for the count, we are monitoring feedback by hand. Unfortunately this doesn't give us the ability to get as detailed reports as we'd like, but we haven't seen major or new issues cropping up. Major complaints remain the same as before, UX issues around Privacy, bookmarks, history, etc. Users want to edit the start page or have their own home page. Noticing alot of feedback of users not wanting to use the mobile version of the site, unfortunately not all of it is linked to a device so can't tell if it's mainly tablets or not.

Major Topics for This Week

\o/
Over 20 million total installs, >100K 5-star reviews and solid 4.1 rating. Yay team!
Tabs Tray UI Plans
We have a bunch of new work that will start on updating parts of the tabs tray UI on tablets and phones (bug 817675). The initial parts are tied into some of the Private Browsing work and will land on m-c as part of Fx20. Other parts will likely start work on a "twig" (cypress) and be merged back when it's ready, which will likely be Fx21.
UI Overdraw Problems & Layout Complexity
Using some guidance from an Android dev, we are working on reducing "overdraw" in the UI. This should improve responsiveness and animation performance. We'll also be taking this opportunity to try to simplify our layout complexity, which also adds to the responsiveness and animation problems.
