02 / About Ledger Live

A companion for
confident self-custody.

Ledger Live is the companion app designed to work with Ledger hardware wallets. It brings your crypto portfolio into one place, helping you check balances, follow asset activity, and discover supported features from a single interface. Your private keys remain secured by your Ledger device, so you stay in control of authorizing transactions.

Getting started is straightforward: download the app from Ledger’s official website, connect your device, and follow the on-screen setup instructions. Use the app to review your portfolio and manage supported assets. For important actions, take a moment to verify transaction details on the device itself before approving.

Security begins with a few careful habits. Keep your recovery phrase private and offline; it is never needed to log in to Ledger Live. Avoid links in unsolicited messages, confirm you are on Ledger’s genuine website before downloading, and never install software from unfamiliar sources. Ledger Live is a tool for self-custody—not a substitute for protecting your own recovery phrase. This independent guide is informational only and is not affiliated with Ledger.
