In earlier versions of iOS, the default web browser on your iPhone was supposed to be the Safari browser. Luckily, in iOS 14, you can use something else by default, like Google Chrome.
While the default Safari browser on the iPhone is a very good browser, fast, and easy to integrate with many of your apps, you might just want to use something else.
Several third-party browsers are available for iPhone in the App Store, including popular options like Firefox and Chrome.
Our guide below will show you how to use Google Chrome as your default web browser so that the links you open on your device use Chrome and not Safari.
