Ledger Live is a secure crypto management app that lets users manage cryptocurrencies with device-backed protection. Ledger Live connects with Ledger hardware wallets to keep private keys safe while offering a modern interface for portfolio tracking, secure transactions, staking, and app integrations. Ledger Live gives you clear insights into balances, transaction history, and performance across all supported assets. As the Ledger Live app centralizes wallet management, it prioritizes security, privacy, and ease of use for both beginners and power users.
Device-backed security
Ledger Live pairs with your Ledger device so private keys remain on the hardware. Verify addresses and sign transactions directly on-device.
Portfolio & analytics
Track portfolio performance, set alerts, and view historic balances. Ledger Live provides tools to understand and manage your crypto holdings.
Staking & earnings
Stake supported assets directly inside Ledger Live to earn rewards without giving up custody of your keys. Ledger Live offers simple staking flows.
Core features of Ledger Live
Ledger Live includes account management, secure send/receive functionality, an app catalog for decentralized applications, a buy/sell/convert marketplace, and device management for firmware updates and recovery. Ledger Live supports a wide range of tokens and chains, enabling multi-asset management from a single interface. The Ledger Live app emphasizes clear confirmations, device verification, and an audit trail for transactions.
Easy onboarding
Get started quickly: install Ledger Live, connect your Ledger hardware wallet, and follow guided onboarding. Ledger Live provides step-by-step setup, recovery seed guidance, and safety checks to prevent tampering and phishing attempts.
Privacy & telemetry
Privacy is a priority. Ledger Live collects minimal telemetry by default and provides settings to control data sharing. Transaction details and private keys never leave the hardware device.
For developers & integrators
Ledger Live exposes developer APIs and an app catalog for third-party integrations. Use the Ledger SDK and recommended endpoints to integrate secure signing and transaction flows within your applications. Ledger Live supports testnets and developer tools to validate integrations without risking real funds.
Security practices — keep your crypto safe
When using Ledger Live, follow basic security practices: always verify the device screen for addresses and amounts, never enter your recovery seed into a computer or mobile device, and keep your recovery seed in a secure offline location. Use passphrase protection for advanced privacy and consider multi-sig setups for additional security. Ledger Live helps enforce these practices with clear UI prompts and device verification steps.
Recovery & support
If you need to recover funds, use your recovery seed on a compatible device or follow the official restore flow. Ledger Live provides support resources, guides, and community help to assist with restores and troubleshooting.
