I have an iPhone, and I have recently been using Brave. Firefox is a favorite.

I use Firefox Focus as well, but I had to disable the "top 250 websites" recommendations when typing in the URL bar, it's like adverts to my mind.

Funny, I actually started out with them disabled but I re-enabled them in the past year since I’m terrible at mistyping.

I wish there were a way for only the app to know which sites you’ve visited previously so it could do a better job of helping my typos without exposing that data to websites you visit.

Edit: oh I also wish you could have the address bar on the bottom :/

You can in fact set any URL you want to autofill. The setting is under search > automatically fill in URLs > manage websites.

even so, I would prefer my typo go to DuckDuckGo and then I choose among those options than be auto-corrected and directed to an irrelevant website Firefox chose (which is what happens to me). That said, I'm not usually going to a top 250 website, so - your use case might be different.
