RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1909562

People

(Reporter: acreskey, Unassigned)

Details

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start loading a web page
  2. Lose connection to the internet via some means (walk out of range of access point, etc)

Expected behavior

Chrome displays an indication on the top of the page if the page load is stalled due to a loss of internet connection.

Actual behavior

Fenix does not indicate to the user that the reason the page has stopped loading is due to loss of internet connection.

Any additional information?

A recurring Google Play Store review comment, under Felt Slowness, is issues with pages not loading.
i.e.

    Description: Users are reporting slow page loading, pages not loading, slow browsing speed, slow app responsiveness, and slow media.

Notifying the user that they have lost internet (i.e. Fenix is not the problem), might be helpful here.
