If you're on an iOS 14+ device and have Firefox 28.2 or higher, you can set Firefox as your default browser. By making Firefox your default, any links you click on in other apps will automatically open in Firefox, a browser that respects your privacy. Even if you have lots of links open, Firefox's easy-to-manage tabs makes browsing a breeze.

Set Firefox as default browser (requires iOS 14)

1. If you see a display card, tap Go to Settings. Alternatively, you can open the Settings, then scroll down and tap Firefox.
2. Tap Default Browser App.

   

3. Choose Firefox from the list.

   

Older versions of iOS

Apple does not allow changing the default browser on older versions of iOS (pre-14). If you're on an older version of iOS, you can use the following workaround.

Add Firefox to your share menu

If Firefox is not yet in your share menu:

1. From Safari, tap the share icon at the bottom of the screen to bring up the share menu.

   

2. Scroll the row of app icons right to the end, then tap the More button.

   

3. Tap Edit in the top-right corner.
4. Tap the switch next to Firefox to enable it.

   

5. Tap Done in the top-right corner.

Send pages from Safari to Firefox

1. From Safari, tap the share icon at the bottom of the screen to bring up the share menu.

   Note: You can also long-press on a link to bring up the share menu for that link, instead of for the page you are on.

   

2. Choose Firefox as the destination in the share menu.
