1370066 - Please use bookmark names in Activity Stream if they are available on Android

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Andrei Petcu]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:55.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/55.0
Build ID: 20170603100243

Steps to reproduce:

I create a few bookmarks on the desktop to point to Reddit subs and I gave them names. For example "refi" was the name of this bookmark https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/new and "remo" of this one https://www.reddit.com/r/mozilla/new/

Enabled activity stream in Nightly on Android from Settings > Advanced > Activity Stream

Open a new tab on Android


Actual results:

My recent bookmarks were called "new" both https://www.reddit.com/r/mozilla/new/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/new instead of their bookmark name


Expected results:

The current new tab page uses the bookmark name and my bookmarks appear "refi" and "remo" but not "new" and "new".

I expect the new tab powered by activity stream to do the same.

I added some images to explain better.

Here is the Activity Stream bug I initially reported. https://github.com/mozilla/activity-stream/issues/2593

I think this is a regression since it changed previous functionality.
