I didn't know you could change your default browser on iOS.
- exelius 9y agoYou can install other browsers, but the page rendering must be done by Apple’s iOS system version of WebKit. Basically it’s only good for things like bookmark / history syncing.
- TwoNineA 9y agoI know, I was pointing out waterbell's silly argument.
- walterbell 9y agoI'm referring specifically to the Mail app on iOS. Other apps, e.g. Wire for replacing iMessage and Mail, will let you choose which browser will open links.
- majormajor 9y agoRight, and even then, Apple isn't going to help you at all: links from other apps won't open in Firefox, so you jump through hoops to try to get your Firefox bookmark/history syncing support... Unfortunately people are better at copying Apple on the annoying shit like this than at the stuff they're actually really good at.
- hbosch 9y agoYou can't, but you can change your default browser in many apps (such as Gmail).
