Chrome Browser as default on iPad Pro

My company uses a number of services that are optimized for Chrome so when they send me a link to my email that I need to open, when it goes automatically to Safari, I get a message that Safari is not responding. I can then go to my ThinkPad and click on the same link and since Chrome is my default browser, it opens cleanly.

Is there anyway to make Chrome the default browser in iPad Pro, or at the very least give one the choice as to which browser to use to open certain links.

Thanks.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

At present, iOS/iPadOS does not allow you to select non-native default Apps. Embedded links will open in Safari.

However, you can use the Share Sheet to open a link in a different installed browser. To to do so, touch-and-hold an embedded link; an action menu will appear. From the menu, tap the Share option - and from the Share Sheet, select the installed browser App of your choice (such as Chrome or Firefox) from the displayed App icons.
