[Bug 1250995] Re: Choose another default start page

 

This bug was fixed in the package webbrowser-app -
0.23+14.04.20140115.1-0ubuntu1

---------------
webbrowser-app (0.23+14.04.20140115.1-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium

  [ Olivier Tilloy ]
  * Bump version to 0.23 in preparation for the next major release.
  * Split the app into two executables: webbrowser-app and webapp-
    container.
  * Cleaner workaround for bug #1248620. Thanks Thomi for the
    suggestion!. (LP: #1248620)
  * Update the link to the list of overrides for B2G.
  * Add ignore rules for generated ninja files.
  * Use the local test server everywhere instead of writing temporary
    html pages on disk.
  * Fix FTBFS with Qt 5.2. (LP: #1258038)
  * Ensure the test server is up and responding before starting the
    tests, and use standard logging everywhere.
  * Re-execute web application in the dedicated container (compatibility
    mode for legacy webapps).

  [ Omer Akram ]
  * move the close button of the running activity to the left.

  [ Alexandre Abreu ]
  * Further separate the two webbrowser-app & webapp-container projects.
    (LP: #1246935)
  * Restrict url webapps pattern replacement depending on which part is
    being affected. (LP: #1240685)
  * Fix back forward hud actions.

  [ daker ]
  * Fix for uppercase urls. (LP: #1244329)
  * Fixed UA string for huffpost.com. (LP: #1223937)

  [ Timo Jyrinki ]
  * libqt5v8-5-private-dev will be dropped from Qt 5.2. qtdeclarate-
    private-dev 5.0.2 now depends on it until then.

  [ Adnane Belmadiaf ]
  * Change the default homepage to start.ubuntu.com. (LP: #1250995)
  * Fixed UA string for huffpost.com. (LP: #1223937)

  [ David Barth ]
  * Make sure we are redirected to the mobile version automatically, by
    presenting a mobile user-agent string on the /whole/ youtube domain
    (not just m.youtube.com). The string is also changed to the simpler
    ua string used for facebook.com. It gives the same UI, but avoids
    being seen as an Apple browser, which itself prevents rtsp/3gp
    content to be served to our browser. We (barely) support html5 video
    now.
  * Re-execute web application in the dedicated container (compatibility
    mode for legacy webapps).

  [ Ubuntu daily release ]
  * Automatic snapshot from revision 435

  Choose another default start page

Status in Web Browser App:

  Fix Released

Bug description:
  which does not consume ~1MB (!) of mobile data every time the browser
  is started.

  ______
  The start page design will change with the next major design of the browser to a launch page similar to what's used by Chrome for Android and Safari for iOS7.

  For now though, we could direct it to Google.com? That seems to be
  pretty low load and is a good spring board for exploring and using the
  browser?
