The official crypto app for secure asset control. Download Ledger Live to manage, send, receive, swap, and stake your digital assets — all while keeping your private keys safe on your hardware wallet.
Download Ledger LiveLedger Live is Ledger’s official application that works in tandem with Ledger hardware wallets (like the Nano X, Nano S Plus, or others). It provides a secure interface to manage your cryptocurrencies, check your portfolio, and perform operations like sending, receiving, staking, and swapping — all while your private keys stay on the device. It’s designed for both desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and mobile (iOS & Android). :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
Your private keys are stored securely in a hardware device (secure element chip). Ledger Live never has access to them. Every transaction must be physically confirmed on the device. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Ledger Live supports thousands of coins and tokens, including major blockchains like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and many more. You can install apps for each coin on your Ledger device and manage them all from one dashboard. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Track total asset value, recent transactions, performance over time, and see breakdowns by asset or by account. Desktop and mobile versions both update balances and display historical charts. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Every critical action requires manual, physical confirmation on your Ledger hardware device — be it sending funds, swapping tokens, or installing a new coin app. The software acts as the interface, but your device retains sole control over your private keys. Verify addresses, use strong PINs, and keep recovery phrases offline. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}

Mac users have been targeted by malware posing as Ledger Live. Always check the domain, verify SSL, and never enter your seed phrase anywhere. Ledger’s statements warn strongly about this. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
Write your 24‑word phrase on paper or metal. Don’t take photos or store in cloud. This phrase is the only backup. :contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}
Regular updates fix vulnerabilities and add features. Ledger Live will prompt for firmware updates; verify on device before approving. :contentReference[oaicite:16]{index=16}
