When you connect your Phantom wallet to an app (also called a decentralized app or dApp), the app can see your public address and request transaction approvals. Only connect to apps you trust.
Important: On mobile, always connect to apps using Phantom’s in-app browser (Explore → enter URL → open) so the connection stays inside Phantom. Don't use other mobile browsers.
Connect Phantom to an app
Browser extension
When connecting to an app on your computer, use a supported browser where the Phantom extension is installed: Chrome, Brave, Edge, Opera (and other Chromium browsers), Firefox and Tor. Safari isn't currently supported.
- Click Explore.
- Search for the app and open its site in your browser.
- On the site, click Connect wallet (often in the upper-right) and choose Phantom.
- In the Phantom pop-up, review the details and click Connect.
- If prompted, approve a Sign message request to finish connecting.
Mobile app
When connecting to an app on mobile, you must use Phantom’s in-app browser. This allows Phantom to connect securely to apps directly from your smartphone. Other mobile browsers don’t support wallet connections with Phantom.
- Tap Explore.
- Enter the app’s name or URL and then do one of the following:
- If the app appears under Sites: tap it, then tap Open to launch it in Phantom’s in-app browser.
- If the app doesn’t appear under Sites: tap Search with Google, then open the app’s website from the search results. The site will load in Phantom’s in-app browser.
- In the app, tap Connect wallet (or a similar button) and choose Phantom.
- In the Phantom sheet, review the details and tap Connect.
- If prompted, approve a Sign message request to finish connecting.
