Troubleshooting

“The Download button isn’t working”

On phantom.com/download, Download doesn’t start a file download right away. It opens a list of platforms and browsers.

Try this:

  • Make sure you select a platform and then choose your browser’s icon.
  • If nothing opens, refresh the page and try again.

Nothing happens when I click a browser icon

Some settings and tools can prevent the store page from opening.

Try these steps:

  • Temporarily turn off ad blockers, privacy extensions, or strict tracking protection for phantom.com.
  • Allow pop-ups/redirects for phantom.com (some browsers treat store redirects like pop-ups).
  • Try a private/incognito window.
  • Clear site data for phantom.com (cookies/cache), then try again.
  • Try a different supported browser.

I added Phantom but don’t see the icon

  • Select the Extensions icon in your toolbar and look for Phantom.
  • Pin Phantom so it stays visible (steps above).
