Managing crypto should be powerful yet simple — and it should never compromise security. Ledger Live brings together the best of both worlds: a polished, user-friendly interface paired with industry-standard security practices. Whether you're new to crypto or managing a multi-asset portfolio, Ledger Live puts control back in your hands while protecting your private keys on a Ledger hardware wallet.
Track the value of your crypto holdings across multiple accounts and devices. Detailed charts show performance over time, asset allocation, and transaction histories so you always know where your portfolio stands.
Send and receive crypto with confidence. Every transaction must be validated on your Ledger device — preventing remote theft or unauthorized transfers.
Access fiat on-ramps and off-ramps, plus in-app swaps between supported tokens. Execute trades directly from Ledger Live without exposing private keys.
Stake supported assets to earn rewards while keeping custody of your funds with your Ledger device. Manage all staking operations through a simple flow in the app.
Discover, view, and manage your NFTs in one place. Ledger Live shows your collectibles and metadata — letting you keep an eye on high-value pieces without exposing keys.
Connect Ledger Live to a wide ecosystem of decentralized apps (dApps) and services. Use companion apps for advanced DeFi, analytics, or custody workflows.
At the heart of Ledger Live is a simple but critical principle: your private keys never leave your Ledger hardware wallet. The app serves as a secure dashboard and transaction builder — the final signing step happens on the device itself (e.g., Ledger Nano S, Nano X, or other supported devices).
Private keys are generated and stored inside the hardware device. Ledger Live communicates with the device to create transaction data, but signing must be confirmed physically on the device.
This model protects you from malware and remote attackers. Even if your computer were compromised, an attacker cannot sign transactions without physical access to your Ledger device and its PIN.
Setting up Ledger Live and your Ledger device takes only a few steps:
Tip: Always download Ledger Live from Ledger's official domain and verify any download checksums/signatures if provided.
Ledger Live suits a wide range of users:
No — Ledger Live does not store your private keys. Your keys are generated and kept on the Ledger hardware device. The app only reads public addresses and constructs transactions that must be signed on-device.
Yes. Ledger Live is available for desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and mobile (iOS, Android). You can manage accounts from either platform and sync actions with your Ledger device.
If you've securely stored your recovery phrase, you can restore your wallet on a new Ledger device or any compatible wallet that accepts your seed. Never share your recovery phrase — anyone with it can control your funds.
Ledger Live supports a wide range of major blockchains and tokens. For some networks or advanced tokens, you may need to use third-party wallets in conjunction with Ledger Live. Always check supported assets in the app when adding new accounts.
Ledger Live brings together security, convenience, and control. By combining a Ledger hardware wallet with Ledger Live, you get an ecosystem built around the core idea that you — not a third party — should hold and protect your crypto. The app's clean interface, in-app services, and strong security model make it a reliable choice whether you're just starting or managing a sizable crypto portfolio.
