1160604 - Advertise privacy coach add-on in privacy settings page

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Settings and Preferences, defect)

Description

[:Margaret Leibovic]

In the past, we've talked about finding contextual places in the app to promote add-ons, and I think promoting privacy coach in the privacy settings would be perfect. We could do something like "Want to learn more about your privacy settings? Install the Privacy Coach add-on."

kar, what do you think of this idea?

My initial reaction is that I worry we would have other partners asking us to promote their add-on in our app pages in a similar way (and we may end up doing so), but I want to ensure it would be done in a scalable way that we would be comfortable with.

I'd like to think about it a bit more. We may want to do a similar concept when thinking about promoting other 'services' (if we can treat some of them as add-ons).

Robin - I know you've looked at add-on discovery previously. Could you throw some visuals together for some options so we can see how something could look that could be scalable and doesn't feel advertise-y?
