785547 - Selecting "Don't ask again for this site" on the "open in app" web app doorhanger makes FF unable to handle the page properly on subsequent loads

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Web Apps (PWAs), defect, P1)

Description

[Michael Comella (:mcomella) [NI reported issues only: ex-Mozilla]]

Attachment: Screenshot of the app selector

1) Open Firefox (with no apps installed)
2) Go to the Apps screen
3) Click the Mozilla Marketplace link and open the app through the doorhanger (keep the checkbox checked).
4) Hit the back button to return to Firefox
5) Select "Nightly" (or your current version of FF) from the app selector

Expected: The web page opens in Nightly (or selected FF) despite the fact that the app is installed
Actual: Opening the page in Nightly causes the app selector to pop up again

The functionality this bug has issue with is similar to bug 785544.

Note that you can make the browser handle the page again by clearing the site settings, as in bug 785485.

Not blocking, since we are turning marketplace as an app off on device for v1.

No longer valid, as we aren't having marketplace as an app in the android manifest anymore.
