We have to think about the l10n of the product name on Google Play.

The English page now says "Firefox Browser for Android"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=en
but in other locales it's still Firefox. For example, in Japanese it can be "Android 版 Firefox ブラウザ".

Is this conversation about not preserving "Firefox browser for Android", ie changing it to something else, or about how to localize it?

I mean how to localize it.

Comment 3

[Milos Dinic [:Milos]]

For Serbian, I'd go for literal translation.

This has been "fixed" at some point. I can see "browser" in the localized product name

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=de
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=fr
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=pt-BR

though looks like some still needs l10n:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=ko
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=zh-CN
