Ledger Live App — Secure Crypto Management in One Powerful Platform
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The Ledger Live App is the official companion software designed to work seamlessly with Ledger hardware wallets. It combines security, convenience, and advanced portfolio management into one streamlined platform. Whether you are holding Bitcoin for the long term or actively managing multiple digital assets, Ledger Live provides a secure environment that keeps your private keys offline while giving you full control over your crypto activity.
Unlike exchange-based wallets, Ledger Live operates alongside your Ledger hardware device, meaning your private keys never leave the secure element chip. Every transaction must be physically confirmed on your device, creating an additional layer of protection against phishing, malware, and unauthorized access.

All-in-One Crypto Dashboard
The Ledger Live App delivers a unified dashboard where users can:
• Monitor real-time portfolio balances
• Track transaction history
• View asset allocation
• Manage multiple accounts
• Install and update crypto apps
This centralized interface simplifies crypto management without compromising security. From beginners to experienced investors, the layout is intuitive and designed for clarity.

Desktop & Mobile Flexibility
Ledger Live is available on both desktop and mobile platforms, allowing secure access wherever you are.
Desktop Version:
Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, the desktop version provides full functionality and enhanced security isolation.
Mobile Version:
Available on iOS and Android (with Bluetooth support for Ledger Nano X), the mobile app enables users to manage assets on the go while maintaining hardware-level protection.
Both versions synchronize with your hardware wallet, ensuring your assets remain secure regardless of the device you’re using.

Secure Asset Management
With Ledger Live, users can securely:
• Send and receive cryptocurrencies
• Install blockchain-specific apps
• Stake supported assets
• Buy, sell, and swap crypto through integrated partners
Each outgoing transaction requires confirmation directly on your Ledger device screen. This physical verification prevents remote attackers from executing unauthorized transfers.

Advanced Security Features
Security is the foundation of the Ledger ecosystem. The Ledger Live App includes:
• Genuine device verification
• Secure firmware updates
• PIN protection
• Recovery phrase backup integration
• Clear signing for transaction transparency
Clear signing ensures you can verify transaction details on your device before approving them. This significantly reduces the risk of blind signing attacks.

Broad Cryptocurrency Support
Ledger Live supports thousands of coins and tokens, including:
Bitcoin (BTC)
Ethereum (ETH)
Solana (SOL)
Polygon (MATIC)
XRP
And many ERC-20 tokens
Users can install or remove apps depending on storage capacity, making it easy to customize their device according to their portfolio needs.
────────────────────────
Built-In Buying, Swapping & Staking
Ledger Live integrates trusted third-party providers, allowing users to:
• Purchase crypto with fiat
• Swap between supported assets
• Stake selected coins to earn rewards
Even when using integrated services, private keys remain protected inside the hardware wallet. Funds are sent directly to your secure address rather than stored on centralized exchanges.
────────────────────────
Continuous Updates & Transparency
Ledger Live is regularly updated to improve security, add asset support, and enhance performance. As part of a globally recognized hardware security ecosystem, it reflects ongoing innovation and strict security standards.
Users are encouraged to download Ledger Live only from the official Ledger website to avoid counterfeit software or phishing attempts.
