How do I change the default browser on my iPhone eight from Safari to Firefox?

Réiteach roghnaithe

If you go to your iPhone settings, you should be able to click on Firefox. After you click Firefox, there should be a Default browser button. If you click that, you will be able to set your default browser.

There's more information on the Set Firefox as the default browser for iOS page. There's also a video included in this Mozilla blog post.

You will need to have iOS 14 or higher installed on your iPhone to be able to see this feature though.

Hope this helps.
