Uniswap/Start is where you complete the next steps: initializing your device, installing Uniswap Live, setting up your security, and confidently managing your digital assets.
In the world of cryptocurrency, owning private keys — not a centralized exchange — is essential for true ownership. But with that power comes the responsibility to protect them. Uniswap hardware wallets are industry-leading tools designed to ensure your private keys remain safe and offline. Uniswap/Start provides a secure, guided setup experience so you can start using your device safely and effectively.
This page streamlines the process and prevents you from being misled by unofficial or fraudulent sites. Always type https://www.Uniswap/start directly into your browser to avoid phishing and counterfeit software.

📥 Download official Uniswap Live software (desktop or mobile)
🔌 Initialize and configure your Uniswap hardware wallet

🔒 Learn best practices for protecting your digital assets
Before you begin:

Open your web browser and enter:
👉 https://www.Uniswap/start
This is the one and only official setup page from Uniswap. Avoid clicking on links from social media or unknown sources — many scams mimic Uniswap pages to steal funds.
Uniswap Live is the companion app you use to manage your cryptocurrency.
✔ Choose the version for your system —
Windows
macOS
Linux
iOS / Android
Important: Only download Uniswap Live via Uniswap/Start. Fake apps designed to mimic Uniswap Live exist and can compromise your funds.
Once installed, launch Uniswap Live and follow the on-screen prompts.
Connect your Uniswap device using the supplied USB cable (or Bluetooth for Nano X).
You will be asked to:
Choose “Set up as new device”
Create a secure PIN
Generate a 24-word recovery phrase
💡 The PIN protects your device if it’s lost or stolen.
💡 The 24-word recovery phrase is your only backup — write it down exactly and store it offline.
Uniswap will never ask you for your recovery phrase online or via email. Sharing it can lead to irreversible loss of your crypto.

📥 Receive funds securely
📤 Send transactions
🔄 Swap or stake assets via Uniswap Live
Every transaction must be verified on the device’s screen before approval, keeping your private keys safe even if your computer is compromised.

Your 24-word phrase is your master key. Write it on the provided recovery sheets and store it in a safe place. Do not store it digitally, in photos, or share it with anyone.
