Enable cookies on ipad (Chrome and Firefox)

I've searched here and the web and can't find a recent fix that shows how to allow cookies in the Chrome and Firefox apps on ipad. The steps described don't match the current view of these browsers in ipad and I can't find a place that actually allows cookies to be enabled.


I have been able to allow cookies in Safari but not Chrome or Firefox.

iPad, iPadOS 18

For privacy and security, many decent browser Apps now block third-party cookies by design. While Safari's Advanced settings allow you to reenable them, other browsers for iOS/iPadOS may not provide this level of granular control.


For Firefox, while not necessarily recommended (and entirely at your own risk) you can disable Tracking Protection in Firefox settings; this effectively re-enables third-party cookies...


From the Firefox App, tap the "hamburger" icon at top-right of the screen - and from the menu select Settings:






This will open the Settings menu. From the Privacy sub-menu, select Tracking Protection - and then deselect Enhanced Tracking Protection.
