Switch from bing to safari as browser

I’d like to switch my default browser to safari, but I don’t see the option to select it in settings. How can I change this? Currently using bing and want to switch. I see Google, yahoo, bin, duck duck go and whatever ecosia is.

There is a Bing app, and there is a Bing search engine. To change the latter read Search for websites using Safari on iPad - Apple Support.


If you installed the Bing app, you can just remove it, or select Settings > Bing > Default Browser App and choose Safari.


In any event Safari is not a Search Engine.
