iOS may not have a central browser setting yet, but apps can still invoke other apps directly. Gmail on iOS uses that to offer a choice between Chrome and Safari, and offers to save your choice.

It just tends to regularly forget that I told it to save my choice of Safari.

On iOS, it also has no way of knowing that you have installed Firefox to give you that choice, which makes using Firefox on iOS even more of a nonstarter than it already is.
