If you’ve forgotten your Phantom browser extension password, reset the extension, restore your wallet, and create a new password.

Resetting the extension doesn’t change your wallet’s recovery phrase, private keys, or funds. You’ll need your wallet credentials to restore access afterward.

1. Prepare your wallet credentials #

Before resetting, make sure you have what you need to restore every wallet you use:

• Google or Apple wallet: Access to the same Google or Apple account you used to create your wallet and your four-digit PIN, if you set one.
• Recovery phrase wallet: Your 12- or 24-word Secret Recovery Phrase.
• Additional imported wallets: A backup of each recovery phrase or private key you imported. You’ll need to import these wallets again after the reset.

If you’re still signed in to Phantom on another device, see View your recovery phrase or private keys in Phantom to back them up.

Don’t reset the extension until you have the credentials needed to restore your wallets.

2. Reset the extension and create a new password #

1. Click the Phantom browser extension icon.
2. Click Forgot password > Reset & wipe app.
3. When Phantom opens in a new tab, click I Already Have a Wallet.
4. Restore your wallet using your original credentials.
5. Create a password with at least eight characters, including at least one special character, one capital letter, and one number.

If you had additional imported wallets, import them again using their recovery phrases or private keys.
