Steps: 1. Install the latest fennec native nightly 2. Go to apps.mozillalabs.com/appdir 3. Select an app to install and hit ok 4. Go to about:apps 5. Long press the app you installed 6. Select Add to Home Screen 7. Go to Android Settings --> Apps --> Nightly 8. Uninstall Nightly 9. Go back to your Android homescreen Expected: With no fennec native build available to run the existing app shortcuts, therefore, the app shortcuts should be removed from the Android homescreen. Actual: The app shortcuts remain post uninstall of a fennec native build that can run web apps. Running those shortcuts post uninstall will say that the app is no longer installed on the user's device. Additional Notes: UX needs to comment here to determine the best workflow. Device: Samsung Galaxy Nexus OS: Android 4.02 Build: Fennec Native Nightly
