Hi everyone,

Quick update. We landed a bunch more features that expose the Strings that
you have been working on:


• In the Private Browsing empty state, there is now a 'Learn More' button:

• When you start the app for the first time, we have two new tour slides.
I'm listing all the slides for completeness:

It is best to look at all screens since I think the text for all of them
has updated slightly.

You can see the tour again via the 'Show Tour' option in the Settings.


• We have support for bookmark sync now. There are two strings exposed in
the application currently, which is the 'Desktop Bookmarks' folder name
that you should see when you navigate into your bookmarks and the back item
that goes back to your top level 'Bookmarks'

https://www.dropbox.com/s/el0tnt4op1kzv1h/Screenshot%202015-10-07%2012.20.38.png?dl=0

The two 'Bookmarks Menu' and 'Bookmarks Toolbar' folder names are not
localized. We currently follow Desktop and Android and use the names that
were configured for those in the locale that you initially used on your
other devices. This means that you may or may not see those strings with
non-English text. We are not entirely sure yet how to handle this.


As usual you can grab a daily L10N build at
https://people.mozilla.org/iosbuilds/l10n.html (requires LDAP)

Note that the last TestFlight build does not have all these changes yet. We
are planning to push out #1106 either today or tomorrow.

Hi Everyone,

Quick update on yesterday's update. We have now also landed a change that
will localize the bookmark folder names. For example, this is what you will
see in Dutch:

Previously that would say 'Bookmarks Menu' and 'Bookmarks Toolbar' even in
a non-English system locale.

Build at https://people.mozilla.org/iosbuilds/l10n.html

(I have to confirm this, but I *think* that all new Firefox for iOS v1.1
functionality has now been exposed!)

Please don't hesitate to ask questions here or on the #mobile IRC channel.
