Lédger® Live and Browser Extensions with Official Site
The Lédger® Live Chrome extension has been discontinued and is no longer supported by Ledger. Users searching for a "Ledger Live Chrome extension" often encounter outdated information or, more dangerously, malicious fake extensions designed to steal cryptocurrency assets.
The legacy Chrome apps—including Ledger Manager, Ledger Bitcoin Wallet, Ledger Ethereum Chrome App, and Ledger Ripple Wallet—have been officially deactivated and replaced by Ledger Wallet™ (formerly Ledger Live). This is a unified desktop and mobile application that provides complete device and asset management.

None—Ledger Live is not a browser-based application
The official Ledger Live application cannot be installed directly as a browser extension. Any Chrome extension claiming to be "Ledger Live," "Ledger Helper," "Live Fix," or similar is unauthorized and potentially malicious.
Search Engine Ads: Fake Ledger apps are frequently advertised via search engines
Phishing Websites: Fake sites with URLs like "ledgeractivate.com" or "ledger-live-activate.com" trick users into entering recovery phrases
Fake Features: Extensions claim to "speed up sync," "fix signatures," or "improve connections"—all designed to gain your trust
Side-loading Instructions: Attackers direct users to download CRX/ZIP files from third-party sites and manually install them via Developer Mode
The extension asks for your 24-word recovery phrase—Ledger never requests this online
The extension requests clipboard access, screen recording, or file system permissions
The extension is installed by side-loading a CRX/ZIP file rather than from an official source
The extension appears in search ads or third-party sites, not on ledger.com
While there is no Ledger Live Chrome extension, you can still use your Ledger hardware wallet with web-based decentralized applications (dApps) through:
Compatible Web Wallets: Many dApps support direct hardware wallet connection via USB or Bluetooth
WalletConnect: Enables secure connection between your Ledger device and supported web applications
Your private keys remain on the hardware device and are never exposed to the browser.
