Summary
Context
- Queue links in Firefox instead of switching applications each time
- Give users the ability to load links, without having to switch apps every time. The idea is to defer that choice to the user.
- The idea was that Firefox would load all the links in this “list” next time the user opened the app
- There might be an unpredictable amount of delay between opening and consuming. So, the notifications was introduced — a more subtle way to remind users “those links are waiting for you”.
Implementation
1. Enabling/disabling this feature in Settings
2. After a user presses a link, a feedback notification is displayed
3. If there is an amount of delay until switching to that link, a notification is displayed in the android notification bar
