I have a few web browsers on my phone (Firefox, Chrome) and none of them can currently be set as default web browsers on iOS 14. I am assuming that there needs to be some work done in the app in order for the system to consider it a web browser and show in the list of browsers you can set as default.
I am also assuming that the web browser needs to comply with some sort of minimum functionality in order to work as a default.
I have been looking for a while for the documentation for this, and I haven't had any luck. What do I need to be able to set an app as a default web browser? A plist? Conform to a protocol? Anything else? Any points to the documentation will be appreciated as I cannot seem to find it on my own.

We are excited to share details about how to configure an application as a default, but are not yet ready to provide official documentation on this topic. However, I can provide a few details now.
Applications will need to take the new Managed Entitlement 'com.apple.developer.default-web-browser'.
Applications must comply with a set of minimum functional criteria for handling web links and allowing user control of page navigation.
