How to set your Phantom app to automatically lock

To help keep your crypto assets secure, Phantom includes an auto-lock feature. When enabled, this feature automatically locks your wallet after a period of inactivity. It adds a layer of protection if you forget to manually lock the app or if someone gains temporary access to your device.

Lock the Phantom app instantly or after a set time

1. Open Phantom and on the Home tab, select the three-dot menu.
2. Select Wallet Settings.
3. Go to Security & Privacy.
4. Choose your auto-lock settings:
   • On the extension: select Auto-Lock Timer.
   • On the mobile app: select Require authentication.
5. Set the timer from Immediately up to 8 hours.

After the timer expires, Phantom will prompt you to authenticate:

• On the mobile app, use your device’s authentication method (such as Face ID or fingerprint).
• On the extension, enter your password.
