The 2-adic exponential is the power series $\exp (x)={\sum }_{n\ge 0}{x}^n/n!$ interpreted with the 2-adic absolute value. Over ${\mathbb{Q}}_2$, it converges for $v_2(x)>1$, equivalently $x\in 4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$. The general p-adic exponential function has convergence condition $|x{|}_p<p^{-1/(p-1)}$.

On $4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$, the 2-adic exponential and 2-adic logarithm give inverse group homomorphisms between the additive group $4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$ and the multiplicative group $1+4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$. The stronger domain restriction compared with odd primes comes from the powers of two dividing the factorial denominators.

The 2-adic logarithm is the power series $\log (1+x)={\sum }_{n\ge 1}(-1{)}^{n+1}{x}^n/n$, convergent for $x\in 2{\mathbb{Z}}_2$. Thus it is defined on the odd 2-adic units $1+2{\mathbb{Z}}_2$.

It is inverse to the 2-adic exponential after restriction to $1+4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$, with image $4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$. On the larger domain, $\log (-1)=0$, so it is not injective there. Indeed each odd unit is uniquely a sign times an element of $1+4{\mathbb{Z}}_2$, and the logarithm forgets the sign. Distinguishing the convergence domain from the inverse-function domain avoids a frequent error.
