IOS 14 allows third-party web browsers and email clients to be the default default, so if you don’t really like Safari and Apple Plus Mail, you now have other options.
With the latest update on Google Chrome, now available on the App Store, you can change your default browser from Safari to Google Chrome, iPhone and iPad. Here’s how to do it …
With iOS 14, Apple Play has added system support for third-party web browsers and email applications. In the future, they may open even more categories.
The default default web browser will be used when tapping on any application link. Until iOS 14, you may have an alternative browser like Google Chrome, but link actions always open in Safari. Here’s how to replace it on iPhone and iPad in iOS 14.
How to set Google Chrome as your default browser on iPhone
- Download the latest version of Google Chrome from the App Store.
- Open the Settings app and open the Settings page for Google Chrome.
- Tap ‘Default Browser Application’.
- Tap ‘Chrome’.
With this set, any application that triggers standard open URL activity will now direct the system to open Google Chrome instead of Safari.
If you ever change your mind, you can go back to settings and change the default browser application back to Safari. If you want to use a different third-party browser that is not Chrome, you will have to wait for the developer’s application to update. The same goes for changing email apps: So far, we haven’t seen any compatible email apps highlight this feature.
Obviously, all this requires is to install iOS 14 or IPOS DOS 14. Right now, we’re at iOS 14 Developer Beta 8. Apple Plus is expected to unveil iOS 14 to all users over the weekend, with a release date to be part of next week’s Apple Plus event.
