Ledger Live App is the official application developed by Ledger SAS that allows users to securely manage, monitor, and grow their cryptocurrency holdings. Available on both desktop and mobile platforms, it delivers a unified environment where you can store, send, receive, stake, and swap crypto — all while maintaining complete control of your private keys.
The Ledger Live App serves as the central hub for interacting with your Ledger hardware wallet. It bridges your physical device and the blockchain networks you use daily. With support for over 5,000 digital assets, Ledger Live provides real-time portfolio insights, secure transaction validation, and integrated access to DeFi, staking, and NFTs.
Always download the Ledger Live App exclusively from ledger.com/start or the official mobile app stores (Google Play or Apple App Store). Each release is digitally verified to ensure authenticity. Never download from third-party websites or file-sharing links that may contain malicious modifications.
Once installed, open the app and connect your Ledger device. Ledger Live automatically detects your model (Nano S, Nano X, or Stax) and helps configure it. During the setup, users can create a new wallet or restore an existing one using their 24-word recovery phrase — which should always remain offline and private.
Ledger Live App follows a simple but powerful model: your private keys never leave your hardware wallet. Every transaction requires confirmation directly on your Ledger device, ensuring that even if your phone or computer is compromised, your funds remain secure.
Ledger frequently updates the Ledger Live App to improve security and expand supported features. Regular updates can be checked directly in the app’s settings menu. It’s recommended to install firmware and app updates together for seamless synchronization between your device and the Ledger Live App.
The mobile version of Ledger Live brings the same power and control to your pocket. With Bluetooth-enabled Ledger devices (such as the Nano X), users can manage assets on-the-go without compromising safety. All connections remain encrypted, and transactions still require confirmation on the physical device.
If you encounter connectivity issues, ensure that your operating system and Ledger Live App are updated. Disconnect other wallet software that may conflict with the connection. Official troubleshooting guides and firmware checks are available at support.ledger.com.
Ledger Live operates with full transparency: it collects no private keys, passwords, or recovery phrases. The open-source components of the app can be audited by the community, ensuring public confidence in its security model.
Ledger Live unites simplicity with uncompromised protection. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced investor, it allows you to manage all digital assets in one secure ecosystem. Instead of relying on third-party custodians or centralized exchanges, Ledger empowers you with full ownership — giving you the keys, literally and digitally, to your crypto journey.
