Ledger Live: The Secure Crypto Management App for Ledger Hardware Wallets
Ledger Live is the official secure crypto management app that connects to Ledger hardware wallets so you can manage digital assets with confidence. Ledger Live (often referred to as the Ledger Wallet app) enables you to check balances, send and receive coins, buy and swap assets, stake eligible tokens, and track NFTs — all while keeping private keys safely offline on your Ledger hardware wallet. This combined Ledger + Ledger Live model offers a user-friendly interface while preserving hardware-level security.
All-in-one Ledger Wallet Experience
Ledger Live provides an all-in-one experience: portfolio view, transaction history, built-in on-ramps to buy crypto, swap integrations, and staking dashboards. The Ledger Live app is available for desktop and mobile — download Ledger Live from the official Ledger site and pair it with your Ledger device for secure management.
Security-first Design (Ledger + Hardware Wallet)
The core strength of Ledger Live is that it never has access to your private keys — all signing happens on the Ledger device itself. Ledger Live acts as a secure interface, displaying transaction details and forwarding signing requests to the Ledger device. You confirm each sensitive action directly on your Ledger device’s screen for maximum safety.
Supported Assets & Ecosystem
Ledger Live supports hundreds of crypto assets and tokens through native integrations and third-party providers. Use Ledger Live to manage mainstream coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum, explore token support, or connect to third-party wallets when specialized functionality is required. Ledger Live’s supported assets list is continuously updated to reflect the broader crypto ecosystem.
Buy, Swap, Stake, and Track
Ledger Live simplifies common tasks: buy crypto via partner on-ramps, swap assets through integrated swap providers, stake PoS tokens to earn rewards where supported, and track NFTs and DeFi positions — all presented in a single portfolio view. Ledger Live compares providers so you can choose services that fit your needs without leaving the secure Ledger environment.
Verification & Authentic Install
For safety, always download Ledger Live from the official Ledger site and verify the installer signature/checksum where provided. Ledger publishes signature hashes to help users confirm file integrity. Never enter your recovery seed into any software — the seed must remain offline. Ledger Live includes guidance and links to official verification steps to reduce risk from counterfeit apps or malicious installers.
Designed For Everyone — From Newcomers to Power Users
Ledger Live is approachable for beginners with guided setup flows and device onboarding, while providing advanced tools for experienced users who need multi-account management, custom fees, or third-party wallet connections. Pairing Ledger Live with a Ledger hardware wallet creates a seamless experience that balances usability and high security standards.
Practical Tips & Best Practices
- Always download Ledger Live from the official Ledger website and check published signatures or checksums.
- Keep your recovery seed offline, never share it, and store it in secure, redundant locations.
- Confirm transaction details physically on your Ledger device before approving.
- Use the latest firmware updates for your Ledger hardware and keep Ledger Live up to date.
- Be cautious of fake apps and phishing sites — Ledger publishes recommendations to help you spot imitations.
