Status: NEW

Description

[Christian Sadilek [:csadilek]]

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/17894.

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

Currently to access add on page one has to do multiple clicks
This can be solved by adding a general add on icon in address bar itself. By truncating the full url to just the domain name there will be too much space left which can be utilized to add the add on button and possibly a refresh button

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

Currently to access add on page one has to do many clicks

Who will benefit from it?

All users

In short
Truncate the url to just the domain name and then utilize the space to add the button

I think we could also add an option to hide home button hence have enough space to show add-on button. Or on tablet, which have enough space, we could show both home button and add-on button.
