 > So in mobile after this patch, in places where `tor-browser-brand.ftl`
 is used the brand will be `Tor Browser`, while in some other places in UI
 it might be `Nightly` or `Alpha`. Not sure if this is ok, or we should fix
 these branding inconsistencies between mobile and desktop.

 We looked a bit at the branding Mozilla ships and it seems they are using
 essentially the same branding on desktop and mobile (there is a small
 difference for the nightly channel but that seems to me more an oversight
 than an actual intentional decision). I think we should follow Mozilla
 here, in particular as giving the same branding across platforms seems to
 be an important goal. So, let's fix the branding inconsistencies while we
 are at it.

 Anto: Steph: what do you think?
