The Safari browser on your iPhone is deeply ingrained into the functionality of your iPhone, and is generally a fast and responsive browser. But if you use a third-party browser on your laptop or desktop computer, and you have an account with the browser that allows you to sync data across devices, then you might opt to use that browser instead. Firefox is one of the more popular Web browsers, and they have an iPhone app that works very well.
You can customize many of the settings on the Firefox iPhone app, including the homepage that is displayed when you open the app. Our guide below will show you where to find this setting so that you can use whatever Web page you would like as your Firefox iPhone homepage.
