Mobile/Projects/Quickshare: Contexts

Tracking

• Meta-bug to be filed

Goals

Users often use different services to share different sorts of things -- URLs, photos, videos, text-centric articles, etc. We would like Firefox to, over time, provide sensible defaults for Quickshare buttons for each of those contexts, so users can get even more value out of our Quickshare feature from the very beginning.

We also want it to be possible to set initial default services for the Quickshare buttons for each recognizable context, so localizers can set those to what makes sense for their locales, and also that those defaults be settable in distribution files for partners.

Use cases & user stories

• When I first start using Firefox's Quickshare feature, I want there to be sensible default services set for each of the Quickshare contexts, selected due to popularity, what makes sense in my locale, or because of service partnerships.
• When I have specific services I want to use, I want to be able to set those as the defaults for my various Quickshare contexts in my Firefox Settings, overriding the standard frecency algorithm entirely.
