Browser Extension
- Open Phantom in your browser.
- Tap the Explorer icon in the lower-right corner.
- Use the search bar to find the dApp’s website and open it.
- On the dApp, click “Connect Wallet” (or a similar button—often in the top-right corner).
- A Phantom pop-up will appear. Review the connection details and click “Connect.”
Mobile App
If you’re prompted to download Phantom or the connection keeps failing, you’re probably outside the in-app browser.
- Open Phantom on your phone.
- Tap the Browser (🌐) icon at the bottom-right.
- Enter the dApp’s URL directly in the in-app browser’s address bar and load the site.
- Select “Connect Wallet” on the dApp. When the Phantom overlay appears, tap “Connect.”
Troubleshooting
- Still redirected to the App Store/Play Store?
• Copy the dApp’s URL, open the Phantom in-app browser, and paste the link there. - No connection pop-up?
• Make sure you’re using the latest version of Phantom.
• Refresh the dApp page in the in-app browser or desktop tab.
Security Reminder
When you connect a wallet, the dApp will be able to view your public address and request transaction approvals. Always verify you trust the dApp before connecting. Phantom will never ask for your secret recovery phrase or private key.
