Especially it should be mentioned, that reviews shouldn't be used for bug reports.

The support URL and support email design works well for me, but I wonder if we can simply say something like “Would you like to [submit a bug] instead?” and that link will lead to another form that will submit a bug? Another way to do this: when app is rated 3 stars or lower, another button appears besides [Cancel] and [Submit]. It’s called [Report a bug], and it does exactly what it describes. This might be confusing and unnecessary, though. I am thinking to see if there is something more we can do for users to offer feedback other than provide indirect links. Here are some problems with offering links: * If email address is tapped, then it will open an email program. But what if a user doesn’t use a local email client? Would it be helpful if the email is auto-filled with the subject line: “Support with [AppName]”? * If website is tapped, then user will have to browser the website and seek the developer’s contact information manually, then either fill out a form or send an email. At the point of wanting to offer feedback, our user’s mental state isn’t at his/her highest point. In fact, s/he is probably angry and frustrated. Understanding this situation, can we make the reporting step really short and actionable? I think we can. I think we can build a reporting system that’s very similar to the review system. Of course, this report won’t have a star, and is used solely to offer feedback and bug reports. I think considering some of the ideas above will help mitigate some of the tricky root issues. But maybe it’s not on the scope of this bug. If so, I like cvan’s idea of displaying support URL + support email. But I also think that we should open a new bug to talk about how best to offer feedback and report bugs.

Mailing list please (dev-marketplace@l.m.o). :) I like your idea, but what happens when you click "report a bug" isn't clear to me.

I suggest going with my changes until we decide to do a huge overhaul of this: https://github.com/mozilla/fireplace/pull/476
(In reply to Christopher Van Wiemeersch [:cvan] from comment #4) > I suggest going with my changes until we decide to do a huge overhaul of > this: https://github.com/mozilla/fireplace/pull/476 That works for this bug. Any other follow up should be another bug or mailing list post. Thanks.

Bram, do you want to take a second pass on this? I was hoping we can do a more incremental change here than the options proposed in comment 2. See my comment 1 for screenshots of my initial attempt.

I’m still concerned that putting a link to Support URL and Support Email will distract users from the activity that she wants to perform. But because we don’t yet have a way for users to contact developers directly from the Marketplace interface, we should go with your idea on comment 1. I like the support URL + support email variant the best, because email might not work for all users (those without copy-paste feature, those who hasn’t registered an email using Mail.app, etc.) Sounds good?

This is a nice suggestion. If UX is OK with this, we can go forward.
