Ledger Live is designed to work with compatible Ledger hardware wallets, allowing users to manage supported digital assets and accounts through the official application. Rather than relying on a conventional web-based username-and-password login, access to wallet functions can involve connecting and verifying a Ledger hardware device.
To begin, open the official Ledger application and connect your compatible Ledger device. Follow the instructions shown in the application and confirm important actions directly on the physical device.
Depending on the feature being used, Ledger Live may require device authentication or additional security verification.
Open the official Ledger application on your computer or mobile device.
Connect your compatible Ledger hardware wallet.
Unlock the device using your device credentials.
Follow the on-screen instructions to access supported accounts.
Review transaction information carefully before approving an action on the Ledger device.
Keep your Ledger device, PIN, and recovery phrase secure. Never share your recovery phrase with anyone or enter it into a website, email, or support form. Be cautious of fake Ledger login pages, phishing messages, and fraudulent support accounts.
Always obtain Ledger software from official Ledger sources and verify the application before entering sensitive information.
Ledger Live provides a convenient interface for managing supported digital assets with a compatible Ledger hardware wallet. Using hardware-based authentication and on-device transaction confirmation can provide an additional layer of security while managing your accounts.
