Login to Ledger Live Support & Help

Login & Getting Started with Ledger Live

Ledger Live is the official desktop and mobile companion app for your Ledger hardware wallet. To login, download Ledger Live from the official Ledger domain and open the app. Connect your Ledger device via USB (or Bluetooth with supported models) and unlock it using your device PIN. The app will pair and show your accounts — every transaction you confirm is signed on-device for maximum security.

Never enter your recovery phrase into Ledger Live or any website. Ledger Live will never ask for your recovery words — the device displays signing prompts that you must confirm in person.

1
Download & verify: Always download Ledger Live from Ledger.com/start and verify signatures if you want added assurance.
2
Connect & unlock: Connect your Ledger device and enter your PIN to unlock; Ledger Live will detect the device and guide you through synchronization.
3
Confirm on-device: Approve addresses and transactions directly on your Ledger — never via the computer alone.

Private keys stay offline

All signing happens on your hardware wallet. Ledger Live acts as an interface — keys never leave the device.

Multi-account dashboard

Manage many blockchains and view portfolio data in one secure place.

Firmware & updates

Ledger Live manages firmware updates; accept only signed updates through official prompts.

Troubleshooting Quick Tips

If Ledger Live doesn't detect your device, try a different USB cable or port, ensure the device is unlocked, and confirm you installed the latest Ledger Live version. For Bluetooth issues, check system permissions and pair via the official mobile app.
