Ledger Live is Ledger’s software platform for interacting with compatible Ledger hardware wallets. It provides an interface for viewing supported crypto assets, managing accounts, checking transactions, and using available wallet features.
Ledger Live is designed to work alongside a Ledger hardware wallet. The software provides account and portfolio information, while sensitive operations can require confirmation on the physical Ledger device.
Portfolio Overview: Monitor supported crypto assets and account balances.
Account Management: Add and organize supported accounts.
Send and Receive: Manage supported cryptocurrency transactions.
Transaction Review: Check transaction information before approving operations.
Hardware Wallet Integration: Connect your Ledger device to compatible Ledger software.
Software Updates: Keep the application and supported device components up to date.
Download Ledger’s official software from a trusted Ledger source.
Open the application and connect your Ledger hardware wallet.
Follow the setup or account instructions shown on screen.
Select the supported account or asset you want to manage.
Review transaction details carefully.
Confirm important operations directly on your Ledger device.
Never share your Ledger recovery phrase or PIN. Ledger should not ask you to disclose your recovery phrase through email, chat, websites, or support messages. Avoid unofficial downloads and phishing websites that imitate Ledger.
Always verify wallet addresses and transaction amounts on the physical Ledger device before approving a transaction.
Ledger Live provides a convenient interface for managing supported digital assets while working together with the security of a Ledger hardware wallet.
