Can we check Current Default browser in iOS programatically?

Question

I am developing a browser-based application and had applied for default browser entitlements. I have received the provisioning entitlements from Apple and I am able to successfully set my app as the Default Browser. However, i am unable to determine programmatically if my App is currently set as Default Browser by the user or not. Is there any way I can determine the current Default Browser set by the user in iOS programmatically? My App supports iOS 14 and above.

Answer 1

Apple provided this API as part of the latest iOS 18.2 updates.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/UIKit/UIApplication/isDefault(_:)

It poses explicit examples for the Default Browser scenario, though it can be used for other default apps (e.g. mail app).
