Google has interfered with my photos when I chose Firefox as my default browser. On my ipadmini4 I can’t even use Safari....it goes straight to google! I’m getting ads that won’t go away or return immediately if they do. How can I get Firefox as my default browser without this constant interference?

Hello,

Try by opening Settings, scroll all the way down until you see Firefox. Click on Firefox > Default Browser App > then choose Firefox.

Yes that’s how I originally set Firefox as default but then the problems with photos started....also does anyone know why I can’t get Safari as a default browser on an iPad? It goes straight to the google browser. Thanks for the response.

I have just been automatically updated by firefox, which I donate to. The new edition goes straight to google browser, when I type the first letter in the firefox browser bar. I have done everything, set firefox as default and it says it is. Why isn't firefox addressing this problem that everyoine who has the latest edition is experiencing. Does anyone have a cure?
