Improve Sync discoverability | UX mockups done, figuring out resourcing. | 2011-04-20 | Ragavan Srinivasan |
Summary
It's really hard for users to discover the Sync feature. By improving discoverability, we hope to:
- Increase user uptake
- Ensure users are already syncing & have data waiting when they setup Sync on Fennec.
Team

- Lead Developer: TBD
- Product Manager: Ragavan Srinivasan

Release Requirements
