Ledger Live App® | Official Ledger Mobile & Desktop Application

What is Ledger Live?

Ledger Live is the official application for Ledger hardware wallets. It connects to your Ledger device to let you send, receive, stake, and manage more than a thousand supported cryptocurrencies while keeping your private keys offline on your Ledger device.

Security First

At the core of Ledger Live is a security model that separates your private keys from your online environment. Your Ledger hardware device signs transactions locally, so sensitive keys never leave the device. Ledger Live complements the hardware with firmware updates, device checks, and secure pairing flows.

Key Features

• Portfolio overview — one dashboard for balances, asset allocation and recent activity.
• Multi-platform — native apps for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android.
• Swap & Buy — integrated partners let you buy and swap assets without exposing keys.
• Staking support — stake supported tokens directly from the app to earn rewards.
• Manage apps — install or remove cryptocurrency apps on your Ledger device safely.

Designed for Users

Ledger Live focuses on a clean, modern experience. Whether you’re a beginner checking balances or an advanced user interacting with DeFi, the UI balances clarity with power. Features like transaction previews, device verification, and step-by-step guides reduce mistakes and increase confidence.

How Ledger Live Works

Ledger Live pairs with your physical Ledger device via USB or Bluetooth. When you create an account, the app discovers public addresses derived from your device’s seed. Transactions are composed in the app but must be confirmed and signed on the device — this dual-layer flow protects you from remote attacks and phishing attempts.

Getting Started

1. Download Ledger Live from the official Ledger website and open the app.
2. Connect your Ledger hardware device and follow the setup screens.
3. Add accounts for the cryptocurrencies you want to manage, and start checking your portfolio.

Advanced Integrations

Ledger Live integrates with third-party services for swaps, market data, and partner buy flows. It also supports linking to external apps (like DeFi bridges or NFT marketplaces) while still ensuring transaction signing remains on-device.

Tips for Safe Use

• Always download Ledger Live from the official Ledger domain.
• Verify your device’s firmware and use a strong PIN.
• Keep your recovery phrase offline and never share it.
• Use the app’s built-in address verification when sending funds.
