Ledger Live App – Official App to Manage Your Ledger Wallet

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.

What Is the Ledger Live App?

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)
  
  

How the Ledger Live App Works

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.

6. Add crypto accounts inside the app
   
   

Once setup is complete, you can start managing your assets securely.
