Secure, manage, and track your crypto portfolio on Desktop and Mobile with Ledger® Live.
Ledger® Live is the official management software for your Ledger® hardware wallet, designed to give users a secure and user-friendly way to manage crypto assets. Available on both desktop and mobile platforms, it provides portfolio management, crypto staking, and account setup within one integrated environment. With Ledger® Live, your private keys never leave your device, ensuring maximum security while accessing your funds.
To install Ledger® Live, always download it directly from the official Ledger® website. The platform supports multiple operating systems — Windows, macOS, and Linux for desktop, and Android or iOS for mobile.
After installation, open Ledger® Live and connect your hardware wallet via USB or Bluetooth. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up or import your existing wallet. You’ll be prompted to create a password for app access. Ensure your Ledger® firmware and software are updated to maintain security and compatibility with the latest crypto assets.
To log into your Ledger® Live account, launch the app, enter your password, and connect your Ledger® device. Approve the connection by confirming on the device’s screen. If you encounter issues such as Ledger® login not working or unable to login Ledger®, it may be caused by outdated software, faulty cables, or permission errors.
If you lose access to your Ledger® device, you can recover your accounts using your 24-word recovery phrase. Enter the phrase on a new Ledger® device to restore access. Ledger® does not offer traditional two-factor authentication (2FA) because the hardware wallet itself provides physical verification. Never share your recovery phrase online, and avoid entering it on any third-party platform.
For persistent issues or setup guidance, the Ledger® Help Center provides detailed troubleshooting steps, guides, and direct support options. Use it to resolve firmware update failures, device pairing problems, or software errors. Remember, Ledger® Support will never ask for your recovery phrase or private keys.
