How Ledger Live keeps your crypto safe
Ledger Live is built around the principle that private keys never leave your Ledger hardware device. The app provides a user-friendly interface and connects to the device only to sign transactions. This separation of interface and key storage keeps you protected from online threats.
Download the app and set up your Ledger hardware wallet. During initialization you will create a recovery phrase — write it down and keep it offline.
Pair your device with Ledger Live to view balances, approve transactions, and install app-specific managers for different blockchains.
Transactions are composed in Ledger Live but must be physically confirmed on your device — protecting against remote tampering.
Advanced capabilities
Ledger Live supports staking, DeFi app integrations, portfolio analytics, and developer tooling. Use Ledger Live as a secure gateway to the broader Web3 ecosystem while retaining full custody of your assets.
- Multi-asset support with live pricing
- Transaction batching and custom fees
- Seed phrase & device management tools
- Open APIs for third-party integrations
Security & privacy
Security is the foundation of Ledger Live. Your private keys remain in your Ledger hardware device; the app only requests signatures. Ledger Live never stores or transmits your recovery phrase, and we recommend keeping your recovery data offline and secure.
Best practices: update firmware regularly, verify addresses on your device before confirming transactions, and avoid entering your recovery phrase into any app or website.
Customer support & resources
Access step-by-step guides, FAQs, and community forums from inside the app or at the official help center. Ledger Live also shows in-app warnings for suspicious activity and offers guided steps to recover or move funds if you suspect compromise.
