Manage your crypto securely with the official Ledger Live app for desktop.
Ledger Live is the official application for managing your Ledger hardware wallet and digital assets. Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, it’s designed to simplify crypto management while maintaining top-tier security. Download Ledger Live only from official sources to ensure authenticity and protect your assets.
To start, visit the official Ledger.com/start page. Choose your operating system and download the latest version of Ledger Live. Avoid unofficial websites to prevent downloading tampered software that could compromise your wallet.
After downloading, install the app by following the on-screen instructions. Once installed, open Ledger Live and connect your Ledger device using the provided USB cable. The setup process will guide you through steps to verify your device and configure security settings.
Plug in your Ledger Nano X or Nano S Plus. The app will detect your device and prompt you to confirm your PIN and recovery phrase. Always verify information directly on your device’s screen to prevent phishing attacks.
With Ledger Live, you can buy, sell, and exchange over 5,000 digital assets. You can monitor your portfolio performance in real time, stake cryptocurrencies, and even manage NFTs — all from one simple, secure interface.
For maximum security, regularly update both Ledger Live and your device’s firmware. The app will notify you of updates and guide you through safe installation. Updates ensure compatibility, performance improvements, and the latest security enhancements.
Your recovery phrase is your ultimate backup — never share it with anyone. Ledger will never ask for it. Bookmark Ledger.com/start and use it as your only trusted source for downloading Ledger Live and firmware updates.
