Ledger Live — Secure Crypto Management

Take full control of your crypto assets with Ledger Live: a beautifully designed app that connects to your Ledger hardware wallet to send, receive, stake, and manage over 5,500+ tokens and coins — with privacy and security at every step.

Why choose Ledger Live? Military-grade security, transparent updates, open-source components and seamless hardware integration.

All your crypto — one secure app

Ledger Live pairs with your Ledger hardware device (Ledger Nano S Plus, Ledger Nano X and others) to keep your private keys offline while letting you interact with blockchain networks for everyday operations. The app balances ease-of-use with deep security controls so both beginners and power users feel at home.

Secure by design

Your private keys never leave your device. Transactions are signed on-device and verified by you.

Multi-currency support

Manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and thousands of ERC-20 and SPL tokens.

Built-in exchange & staking

Swap assets and earn rewards with integrated partners — without exposing your keys.

Fast setup — secure forever

  1. Download Ledger Live for desktop or mobile and install the app.
  2. Initialize your Ledger device and write down your 24-word recovery phrase in a secure place.
  3. Connect Ledger Live to your device, add accounts for the coins you hold, and start managing funds.

Daily security best practices

  • Always verify the address on your Ledger device screen before confirming a transaction.
  • Never share your 24-word recovery phrase — Ledger will never ask for it.
  • Keep Ledger Live and your device firmware up to date to receive security improvements.

Privacy & transparency

Ledger Live is designed to minimize data collection. You can use the app to view balances and create transactions locally. Optional features that use remote services — such as market data, exchange partners or third-party integrations — are explicitly named so you can opt in or out.

Advanced features for power users

Connect Ledger Live to third-party Web3 apps using WalletConnect, manage multiple accounts and passphrases, and export transaction logs for accounting or taxes. Developers can explore Ledger's open-source libraries to build custom integrations.

Frequently asked questions

Can Ledger Live recover my funds?

If you lose your Ledger device you can recover funds using the 24-word recovery phrase on any compatible hardware or software wallet that supports BIP39/BIP44 standards. Keep the recovery phrase safe and offline.

Is Ledger Live free?

The app is free to download. Network fees still apply when sending transactions; optional service fees apply for swaps and partner services.
