Installation & Initial Setup Issues
❓ I'm a Patron, but I can't find or install the module.
This usually happens if your Patreon account isn't linked to your Foundry VTT account.
- Log in to the official Foundry VTT website.
- Go to your user profile and navigate to the "Patreon" tab.
- Ensure your Patreon account is linked correctly. You may need to "Pledge Again" on that page to force a sync.
- After linking, go back to the Foundry application, check for new packages, and you should be able to find and install the Smartphone Widget via the module installer.
❓ The smartphone icon doesn't appear on my token controls.
This almost always means a module wasn't activated correctly.
- Go to Game Settings > Manage Modules.
- Make sure that both Smartphone Widget and socketlib have a checkmark next to them.
- Click Save Module Settings. The page will reload, and the icon should now appear.
❓ I'm a GM, and when I try to create a phone, the Actor I want to assign it to isn't in the list.
This is by design! The list is filtered to only show Actor types you've approved. By default, it's only set to Character.
- Go to Configure Settings > Module Settings.
