How to use Phantom Extension Alongside Other Crypto Wallets

Phantom multi-chain beta uses the same dapp connect option as MetaMask. If you use Phantom and MetaMask side by side on the same browser and profile, you can select which one you want to use by Default with these steps:

  • Click the Hamburger menu (three horizontal lines on the left upper corner) and go to Settings (gear icon)
  • Click on Preferences and then click on Default app wallet
  • Choose the option that you want to be Default
