Version   31.0a1

STR: 
1. launch "settings" app for 2 phones
2. turn on "NFC" for 2 phones
3. launch "browser" from phone A, phone B installed multiple browsers
4. tap 2 phones
5. swipe shrinking UI on phone A

Expected result:
The user can select one of the apps to open the URL. The user also can tap the radio button to use one as default app.

Actual result:
No radio button to use one browser as default app (please refer attached image)

Does UX design this? It seems out of 2.0 scope.

Hi, please refer the UX doc page 8.

Thanks,
Garner, it seems a function of NFC manager, I wonder if your team can help this.

Is this a new feature of the system wide activity chooser (I think there was some talk about it in the past for a user selectable future default), or rather it needs to be added?
Flags: needinfo?(dgarnerlee) → needinfo?(ashiue)
I think this design is based on considering browser as an app, and user could install multiple browsers. 
But currently,
    (1) we are not sure if browser is an pure app in the future 
    (2) user could not install third party browsers (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
The above two issues still need PM's confirmed.
The purpose to fire this bug is to record the different between UX design and current implemented.

This bug blocks NFC 2.0 release.
Blocks: b2g-NFC-2.0
(In reply to ashiue from comment #5)
For 2.0 most likely we'll just have current browser instead of system browser.
At this point, I don't see 3rd party browser app on Marketplace but I believe we don't block the installation if there's any in the future.

Question is the application picker works, but there's no radio button to set default.
NI? Juwei to see if we can live with it in 2.0.

If we only have our current Firefox browser right now, I'm ok with skip this part in 2.0.
Yet I still highly recommend to have the radio button to set the app by default once we have more than two apps to open the URL (including our own app or 3rd party app), otherwise users will encounter the dialog box every time when they try to open the URL, which is annoying.

According to comment 8, remove it from 2.0 features.
No longer blocks: b2g-NFC-2.0
