Ledger Live App is the official mobile and desktop application developed by Ledger to securely manage Ledger hardware wallets. It allows users to buy, sell, send, receive, stake, and track cryptocurrencies while keeping private keys safely offline on the Ledger device.
The app is designed to give users full control over their digital assets with maximum security.
The Ledger Live App is a secure interface that connects your Ledger hardware wallet to the blockchain. It works with devices such as Ledger Nano X and Ledger Nano S Plus, enabling users to manage crypto assets from a single platform.
The app is available for:
Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux)
Mobile (iOS and Android)
The Ledger Live App does not store private keys. All sensitive actions, such as signing transactions, are performed on the Ledger hardware wallet. Every transaction must be approved physically on the device screen.
This ensures protection even if your phone or computer is compromised.
Follow these steps to get started:
Download the Ledger Live App from the official Ledger website or app store
Install and open the app
Connect your Ledger hardware wallet
Choose “Set up as new device” or “Restore from recovery phrase”
Create or confirm your device PIN

Once setup is complete, you can start managing your assets securely.
The Ledger Live App does not use a traditional login system with email and password. Access is controlled by:
Your Ledger hardware wallet

Physical confirmation on the device
Each time you connect your Ledger wallet, you must unlock it to access your accounts.
The Ledger Live App offers a wide range of features, including:
Real-time balance tracking
