 '''Installation and Add-ons:'''
-* '''Fennec requires around 30 MB of internal storage'''. We have plans to reduce this to 20 MB or less.  Like all Android NDK apps, Firefox must copy its native libraries out of the APK file before loading them, so they end up installed twice.  We have plans to work around this problem and reduce the installation size ({{bug|588607}}).

-* '''Adobe Flash and other plugins are not supported yet.''' The "YouTube Enabler" plugin will not work because it requires Flash.
+* '''Adobe Flash and other plugins are not supported yet.'''
-* '''Fennec nightly builds do not update automatically''' on Android. You will need to download and install the new build yourself when you want to upgrade ({{bug|587384}}).
+* '''Nightly updates do not work in Android 2.1''' or earlier ({{bug|596662}}).
 '''Performance:'''
-* '''Fennec sometimes freezes and must be force-quit''' especially when resuming after being hidden or suspended.  A black screen appears when this happens.
 * '''Speed, responsiveness, power efficiency, and memory use''' are all being improved as part of our [[Mobile/Planning/2.0|Fennec 2.0]] effort.
