Ledger® Live®® — Official App for Managing Your Ledger Wallet
Ledger Live App: Your All-in-One Crypto Command Center
Managing crypto shouldn’t feel like juggling ten different apps, passwords, and platforms. That’s where Ledger Live comes in. Designed as the official companion to Ledger hardware wallets, Ledger Live is a powerful, user-friendly application that lets you securely manage your digital assets, track your portfolio, and interact with the world of crypto — all from one place.
Whether you're just starting your crypto journey or you’re a seasoned investor managing multiple assets, Ledger Live gives you the tools, visibility, and control you need — without compromising on security.
What Is Ledger Live?
Ledger Live is a desktop and mobile application that works seamlessly with Ledger hardware wallets. It acts as your personal crypto dashboard, enabling you to:
- View and manage your crypto portfolio
- Send and receive digital assets
- Buy, sell, swap, and stake supported coins
- Install and manage blockchain apps on your Ledger device
- Track performance in real time
Instead of relying on multiple exchanges or third-party wallets, Ledger Live brings everything together in a single, secure environment built around self-custody.
Security at the Core
Crypto ownership comes with responsibility — and security is everything. Ledger Live is built around the principle that you control your assets, not a platform.
Your private keys never leave your Ledger hardware wallet. Ledger Live acts as the interface, but transaction approvals always require physical confirmation on your device. This adds a strong layer of protection against online threats such as malware or phishing attacks.
Key security benefits include:
- Hardware-backed protection for your private keys
- Manual transaction verification on your device screen
- Secure onboarding and recovery setup
- Protection from unauthorized access to funds
With Ledger Live, convenience doesn’t come at the cost of safety.
Manage Multiple Assets in One Place
One of the standout features of Ledger Live is the ability to manage a wide variety of cryptocurrencies from a single interface. Instead of switching between wallets for different blockchains, you can organize everything in one clean dashboard.
You can:
- Add multiple accounts for different assets
- Label and organize accounts for clarity
- View balances and transaction history
- Monitor asset allocation across your portfolio
The app gives you a clear overview of your holdings, making it easier to understand where your investments stand at any moment.
Send and Receive Crypto with Confidence
Ledger Live makes sending and receiving crypto simple and transparent. When receiving funds, you can verify your address directly on your Ledger device screen, ensuring it hasn’t been altered by malicious software.
When sending assets, every transaction must be physically approved on your hardware wallet. This extra step ensures that even if your computer or phone is compromised, your funds remain protected.
The process is designed to be beginner-friendly while still meeting the expectations of advanced users who value precise control.
Buy, Sell, and Swap — Directly in the App
Ledger Live goes beyond basic wallet functionality. Through integrated services, users can buy, sell, and swap crypto directly within the app. This reduces the need to transfer assets to external exchanges, helping you maintain greater control over your funds.
Benefits include:
- Streamlined crypto purchases
- Easy conversion between supported assets
- Fewer steps between managing and transacting
- Assets remain secured by your Ledger device
This all-in-one approach saves time and simplifies your crypto experience.
Earn Rewards Through Staking
Ledger Live also supports staking for selected assets, allowing you to put your crypto to work while keeping custody of your keys.
Staking through Ledger Live lets you:
- Participate in network validation
- Earn rewards on eligible assets
- Track staking performance from the dashboard
- Maintain security through your hardware wallet
This makes it easier for long-term holders to grow their holdings without moving funds to potentially riskier platforms.
Real-Time Portfolio Tracking
Understanding your portfolio performance is essential. Ledger Live provides visual tools and insights to help you track how your assets are performing over time.
You can:
- View total portfolio value
- Monitor price changes
- Track gains and losses
- Analyze asset distribution
Everything is presented in a clear, easy-to-read interface that helps you make more informed decisions.
Install and Manage Apps on Your Device
Different blockchains require different apps on your Ledger device. Ledger Live makes this simple by allowing you to install, update, or remove apps directly from the Manager section.
This ensures your hardware wallet stays optimized and ready to support the assets you use most.
Desktop and Mobile Flexibility
Ledger Live is available on both desktop and mobile platforms, giving you flexibility without sacrificing security.
- Desktop version for detailed management and full functionality
- Mobile version for on-the-go portfolio checks and transactions
Both versions are designed to deliver a consistent, intuitive experience.
Built for Beginners, Trusted by Experts
Ledger Live strikes a balance between simplicity and power. New users benefit from guided setup, clear instructions, and an intuitive layout. Advanced users appreciate the depth of control, security model, and integrated features.
You don’t need to be a blockchain expert to use Ledger Live — but the app is robust enough to meet professional-level expectations.
Take Control of Your Crypto
The crypto world moves fast, but your security and control should never be compromised. Ledger Live empowers you to manage, grow, and interact with your digital assets in a secure, streamlined way.
Instead of trusting third parties with custody, you hold the keys — and Ledger Live gives you the tools to use them confidently.
One app. One dashboard. Full control.
That’s the Ledger Live experience.
