Comment (by antonela):
Yep, `Connect` is confusing if users need to choose between `Configure`
and `Connect`, like our Tor Launcher for desktop scenario. In fact, there
is not any hierarchy at the UI that allows users to understand which one
will do the main action. This is not the situation here, though.
For sure, the ideal scenario is not having an opt-in from users to start a
bootstrapping. We already have this consent when they launch the app.
That said, I'm happy to test other options. I'm thinking about "Start"
since a while, but it doesn't change the overall user experience. What are
your ideas? :)

> Two questions.
>
> 1. Do you have a preference for the gear icon we use? There is one
available in [https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-
browser.git/tree/browser/themes/shared/icons/settings.svg?h=tor-
browser-60.4.0esr-8.5-1 Tor Browser] already (but it isn't used on mobile,
as far as I know). It's slightly different from the gear in the mock-up.
This is the icon next to "Preferences" in the menu bar, from the hamburger
button.
> 2. From the user-studies, is presenting a "connect" button confusing? I
know we discussed this and we want **something** the user may click/press
so tor browser doesn't automatically begin bootstrapping, but should we
experiment with using another word/phrase instead of "connect"? Or, should
we simply use "connect" (because it is good enough)? :)
