Ledger® Live®® — Official App for Managing Your Ledger Wallet
Managing cryptocurrencies securely has never been easier. Ledger Live is the official application developed by Ledger to help users control their crypto assets safely and efficiently. It works seamlessly with Ledger hardware wallets like the Ledger Nano S Plus and Ledger Nano X, providing a secure and user-friendly interface for all your digital assets.
What Is Ledger Live?
Ledger Live is a desktop and mobile application that allows you to:
- Send and receive cryptocurrencies securely
- Track your portfolio in real-time
- Manage multiple accounts and wallets
- Exchange crypto directly within the app
- Stake supported assets
Unlike online wallets, Ledger Live works in tandem with your Ledger hardware device. Private keys remain offline at all times, protecting your crypto from hacks and phishing attacks.
Key Features of Ledger Live
