Since the first iPhone was released, Apple have not enabled people to change their default browser and email apps to their personal preference. Safari and Mail have been the pre-installed apps that come downloaded onto every iPhone you turn on.
However, with the release of iOS 14, Apple have made a change to this restriction, now allowing you to personalise your browser and mail default settings. There are now a huge variety of third-party apps available to be set as your defaults, including Gmail and Chrome.
Changing your default mail app will mean when you perform a task that requires an email, your iPhone will open your new app that you have set as the default. The full list of default mail apps include Gmail, Outlook, Spark, Hey, Airmail, Boomerang, DecoMailer, and Twobird.
