Steps to reproduce: 1) Use Android 8 2) Open the Firefox new tab view. 3) Long-press any history entry to bring up the menu. 4) Choose Add to Home Screen. Actual results: Nothing is actually added to the home screen. Expected results: Expected to see an icon for the site on the home screen. Additional info: Happens with both release channel and nightly. Using the Pixel Launcher on Google Pixel. Chrome can add sites to home screen, but their icons get a small Chrome icon super-imposed on them. Hopefully we could avoid that and retain the experience from previous Android versions where our added home screen icons look as good as app icons.
