Dear Apple,

Please design an iOS identity isolation UX for Mobile Safari, Apple Mail and third-party apps.

Currently we have to use several different iOS web browsers to achieve isolation of browser logins/cookies, but Apple Mail opens all links in Safari.

Ideally, there would be an OS enforced, per-app setting which defines which web browser (or Mobile Safari identity context) will be used to open a URL.

I'd prefer creating a throwaway container/context every time. Safari allows you to store pwds.

You can get that by entering Private Mode in Safari.

A URL clicked in Apple Mail will then open in a private tab.
