It's the only browser I have installed besides Safari, and my default browser but instead of just opening the link with my default browser, it advertises these other browsers to me and makes me click 'Default browser app' by default. wtf I'll be turning that off, should have never been a feature.

At least you can uncheck "ask me every time"

[–] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago

Set Firefox as your default browser by going to Settings > Firefox > Default Browser App.

Also, by adding your Gmail to iOS, you can get your Google calendars through the Apple Calendar app.

............OK? This is a pretty standard prompt in most OS. Not sure why this is such a huge deal.

[–] AWittyUsername@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Except the OP doesn't have chrome installed the options should be Firefox, Safari, Open with default.

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hate Apple as much as the next guy but this is some next level complaining.

Step 1: Select "Open with Default."

Step 2: Accept that the mere suggestion that you use literally any option that's not your preference isn't a personal attack and the end of the FOSS world.

Step 3: Profit.

Does iOS not have like a "default Apps" system?

[–] sixfold@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It does. And Firefox is my default browser app.

[–] FiniteLooper@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

So if Firefox is your default, what happens when you tap that “open with default app” button at the bottom?

[–] And009@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Predatory design for non techy people. It's a deliberate decision to put that as the most uninviting option. Also creates doubt in the user by not showing any logo/icon

[–] FiniteLooper@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t know anything about iOS development, but my guess is that since this is a google app they do show the chrome icon regardless if you have chrome installed or not. If you don’t have it, clicking that will take you to the App Store.

They show safari because that comes on an iPhone that that’s the default default browser (i guess that’s the way to say that?)

I don’t think they have a way to scan your phone for what other apps are installed and list the ones it thinks are web browsers here. What I mean is that I don’t think that it’s technically possible of feasible to display a Firefox icon here. How could it know you have that app?

[–] narwhalperson@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It opens Firefox. They’re complaining about nothing.

[–] EddieTee77@lemdro.id 1 points 1 year ago

It makes the choices look strange though. You see the Google suggestions and the Apple suggestions even though those aren't the default. This is that walled garden in action on both Apple and Google's side.

[–] Moonrise2473@feddit.it -2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Blame Apple. This is from when Safari was forced to be the default in all cases, so Google hard coded their other browsers to open the link. The possibility to set another browser as default is pretty new, probably Google is waiting to switch to the new API or otherwise people with iPhone 7 or older wouldn't be able to run the app anymore (no more updates for them)
