However, we can take this into account: + +- Adding the latest iPhone and iPad models from Apple. +- Adding the latest Galaxy series from Samsung. +- Checking out what devices Google Chrome supports in its DevTools. They keep the list hardcoded in [source](https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend/blob/79095c6c14d96582806982b63e99ef936a6cd74c/front_end/models/emulation/EmulatedDevices.ts#L645) + +## Data format + +An important field is `featured`, which is a boolean. When set to `true`, the device will appear in the RDM dropdown. If it's set to `false`, the device will not appear in the dropdown, but can be enabled in the `Edit list` modal. +Each device has a user agent specified. We can get this value by: + +- At `https://developers.whatismybrowser.com/useragents/explore/` +- With a real device, open its default browser, and google "my user agent" will display a Google widget with the user agent string. +- Looking at Google's own list of devices (they also specify the user agent) + +## Releasing the changes + +First, make sure you can have access to RemoteSettings (see https://remote-settings.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started.html#getting-started). + +You should then be able to add the device to the [RemoteSettings Stage instance](https://remote-settings.allizom.org/v1/admin/#/buckets/main-workspace/collections/devtools-devices/) using the interface. +Then use the RemoteSettings DevTools to make Firefox pull the devices list from the Stage instance (see https://remote-settings.readthedocs.io/en/latest/support.html?highlight=devtools#how-do-i-setup-firefox-to-pull-data-from-stage) +Once that is done, open RDM and make sure you can see the new addition in the Devices modal. + +If everything is good, you can then ask for review on the data change. Once this get approved, you can replicate the same changes to the [RemoteSettings Prod instance](https://remote-settings.mozilla.org/v1/admin/#/buckets/main-workspace/collections/devtools-devices/), reset the RemoteSettings DevTools settings, check RDM again just to be sure and finally ask for review on the data change. + +## Things to consider in the future + +- Galaxy Fold has two screens, how do we handle that? -- cgit v1.2.3
