Exodus® Web3 Wallet | Getting started with Exodus®
A friendly, colorful, step-by-step guide to set up and use the Exodus Web3 wallet — for beginners and experienced users alike. Learn the essentials, best practices, and find official resources (10 official links included).
Exodus has grown into a polished, multi‑platform crypto wallet that combines an easy-to-use interface with powerful Web3 capabilities. Whether you want to manage tokens, connect to decentralized apps (dApps), swap assets, or view NFTs — Exodus bundles these features into one place with an emphasis on design and accessibility.
This guide will walk you through:
Start by downloading Exodus from official sources only. Below are quick links to the official Exodus pages and stores — these ten links are included later in the resources section as well.
Exodus is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. Choose the version appropriate for your device and follow the installer prompts.
The Exodus Web3 extension turns Chrome/Brave into a Web3-enabled browser — handy for connecting to dApps and managing NFTs from your desktop.
When you open Exodus for the first time, you’ll be prompted to create a new wallet. Exodus is non-custodial — which means you control the private keys. This leads to responsibility: you must securely store your recovery phrase.
If you ever need to restore your wallet, choose the Restore option and enter your recovery phrase exactly. Exodus supports restoring across desktop, mobile and the Web3 extension.
To receive crypto, copy your address for the chosen network and share it with the sender. To send, paste the recipient address carefully, double-check network and amount, then confirm.
Exodus has a built-in swap engine that lets you exchange supported tokens inside the wallet. Fees and rates are shown in the UI — check them before confirming.
The Exodus Web3 extension allows you to connect to decentralized applications like marketplaces, games, or DeFi platforms. Typical steps:
Use a separate browser profile for Web3 activity if you want to minimize risk from unrelated extensions or cookies.
Your recovery phrase is the master key to your assets. Write it down, store it in a safe place (or split it using a secure method), and never share it.
Always verify site URLs and download links. Exodus official support cautions against third‑party downloads and will never ask for your full recovery phrase via email or chat.
Consider a hardware backup: keep a copy in a home safe and (optionally) a second copy in a separate secure location.
If something goes wrong, visit the Exodus support center or contact their official support channels. Common issues include network fees, pending transactions, or restoring a wallet.
Support email: support@exodus.com — only use official channels.
