Ledger Live App — The Official Crypto Portfolio Manager

The Ledger Live app is the official software companion for Ledger hardware wallets, designed to give you full control over your cryptocurrency in one secure and user-friendly interface. Whether you’re a beginner exploring Bitcoin or an experienced investor managing multiple digital assets, Ledger Live offers everything you need to safely buy, receive, send, and track crypto, all while keeping your private keys offline.

Ledger Live works seamlessly with Ledger devices such as the Ledger Nano X and Ledger Nano S Plus, combining hardware-level security with the convenience of a modern portfolio management platform.

Secure Crypto Management

At its core, Ledger Live ensures that your private keys never leave your Ledger device. All sensitive actions — like sending crypto or signing transactions — are verified directly on your hardware wallet. This approach prevents malware, phishing attacks, and other common online threats from compromising your funds.

Key security features include:

• Device authentication: Ledger Live only interacts with verified Ledger hardware.
• PIN and passphrase protection: All sensitive operations require on-device confirmation.
• Encrypted communication: Data between your computer and the device is fully encrypted.
• Firmware verification: Ledger Live ensures your device firmware is genuine and tamper-proof.

By combining these features, Ledger Live provides an extra layer of protection compared to standard software wallets.

Portfolio Overview and Management

Ledger Live isn’t just secure — it’s also powerful and easy to use. The app’s dashboard provides a real-time overview of your assets, including balances, portfolio performance, and transaction history. You can manage multiple accounts for different cryptocurrencies and tokens, all within one app.

Advanced tools include:

• Custom labels and accounts: Organize your crypto holdings the way you want.
• Performance tracking: See how your investments are performing over time.
• Transaction history: Quickly review past transactions and monitor incoming and outgoing funds.

By consolidating all your accounts and tokens, Ledger Live eliminates the need for multiple wallet apps or web interfaces.

Buy, Swap, and Sell

Ledger Live integrates with trusted third-party services, allowing you to:

• Buy crypto directly within the app
• Swap assets between supported cryptocurrencies
• Sell crypto without transferring funds to an exchange

Every transaction still requires physical confirmation on your Ledger device, maintaining the high security standards users expect from a hardware wallet ecosystem. This ensures convenience without compromising safety.

Desktop and Mobile Versions

Ledger Live is available for both desktop and mobile platforms. The desktop app provides the most comprehensive functionality, ideal for full portfolio management, firmware updates, and device setup. The mobile app offers flexibility, allowing users to monitor balances, receive crypto, and confirm transactions on the go.

Both versions sync seamlessly with your Ledger device, ensuring consistent and secure management of your assets across platforms.

Privacy by Design

Ledger Live is built with privacy in mind. It does not store sensitive data on centralized servers. Your balances, account details, and transactions remain private, and the app only communicates with the blockchain as necessary. Advanced users can also take advantage of features like coin control and custom fees to maintain transaction privacy.

Regular Updates and Support

Ledger Live is actively maintained and updated with new features, security patches, and support for additional cryptocurrencies. Users benefit from a constantly improving ecosystem that keeps pace with the evolving crypto market.

Support and guides are available through Ledger.com/start for setup, troubleshooting, and firmware updates, ensuring that your app and device remain secure and up to date.

• Manage multiple cryptocurrencies safely
