What is Ledger Live?

Ledger Live is the companion software for Ledger hardware wallets. Designed for both beginners and advanced crypto users, Ledger Live lets you securely manage your portfolio, connect to decentralized applications, and access decentralized finance (DeFi) markets from a single trusted interface. Whether you prefer Ledger Live Desktop or the Ledger Live App on your phone, the experience is consistent and secure.

Ledger Live Wallet: A Secure Foundation

The Ledger Live Wallet is not a custodial service — your private keys remain on your Ledger device. Ledger Live provides an intuitive UI to view balances, check transaction history, and verify addresses on-device. Use it to manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and hundreds of other cryptocurrencies while keeping keys isolated in hardware.

Ledger Live Login & Account Safety

Ledger Live Login is intentionally simple: the app pairs with your Ledger device and verifies actions using the device screen. There is no online password that can expose your keys — every critical step requires device confirmation. For added safety, never share your 24-word recovery phrase and only download Ledger Live from ledger.com/start.
