Firefox constantly says "Download update", but never lets the user know when the update has been downloaded, or change the pop up message to "ready to restart"; it just keeps saying "Download update".

Please add code to let the user know when the update has been downloaded and the browser is ready to restart.

If you have trouble with the upgrade, use this link; http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

I'm not having trouble with it; this is apparently the way it is intended to function. It's just annoying that it is not programmed to recognize that the update is already downloaded and is ready to restart. This comment is for the programming team, but there's no way to get a message to them since FF directs all questions to non-employee volunteers.

The current release is 89.0, so with 8.0 or 88.0.1 you are behind on updates.
