Connecting when Magic Eden isn't listed (Desktop)
If Magic Eden isn't displayed as an option, use the "Prioritize Magic Eden" feature and select an alternative wallet to initiate the connection. This does not apply to mobile users.

On the Home page, click on the profile icon or name at the top left.

When "Prioritize Magic Eden" is activated, you have the option to choose other wallet providers to connect with the Magic Eden App. If you are connecting to a Solana dApp, we recommend selecting the Phantom option.
