647866 - Unable to register/login from the Android stock browser landing page

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Websites :: spark.mozilla.org, defect)

Description

[Guillaume Lecollinet]

Opening this bug per TBG's request to include a registration/sign in link on the Android stock browser landing page.

This page currently only includes a link to the Android market to download Firefox (since you're on a compatible device).

Caitlin/Mozilla: Please confirm that this change should be made.

Can someone attach or point me to a mockup or design file so I am clear about the recommendation? Most importantly, I am focused on adding registration/sign in on desktop site, but don't feel mobile is an issue.

Attachment: Design spec

Attached the design spec to this bug.

This is the proposed enhancement for the Spark home page that users will see if they use an Android phone with the stock browser.

Currently, this page does not contain the link to login/registration. It only includes the link to download Firefox. Originally, the reason for this was that since they're on a firefox-compatible device, we're inciting users to install Firefox before they can join the game.

The issue here is that adding the possibility to join the game at this point means that we'll potentially distract users from downloading Firefox – that's why I've asked for confirmation before fixing this bug.

Correction to my last comment:

This is not the home page, it's a user page. In other words, it's the page that people land on when they visit someone else's personal link.

So they would be potential new users, so having a link to download Firefox and/or login to the game (and then) download Firefox would suffice as a workflow.

Ok, gotcha. Just looked at the spec. Yes, PLEASE REMOVE the join and login enhancement. The copy is clear in saying to "Get Firefox to start a spark."

Thanks for confirming.
