The Ledger Live App is the mobile companion to Ledger's desktop application, providing secure cryptocurrency management directly from your iOS or Android device. This powerful application allows you to monitor your portfolio, send and receive crypto, and manage your Ledger® hardware wallet—all while maintaining the highest security standards.
Unlike traditional mobile wallets that store private keys on your device, the Ledger Live App works in conjunction with your Ledger® hardware wallet, ensuring your private keys never leave the secure element of your hardware device.
Getting started with the Ledger Live App is a straightforward process designed with security as the top priority. Follow these steps to begin managing your crypto on mobile:
Visit the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and search for "Ledger Live" to download the official application. Always verify you're downloading the authentic Ledger Live App by checking the developer name (Ledger®) and reviews.
If you haven't already set up your Ledger® hardware wallet, follow the on-device instructions to generate your recovery phrase. This 24-word phrase is your ultimate backup—store it securely offline and never share it with anyone.
The Ledger Live login doesn't use traditional passwords. Instead, you'll connect your Ledger® device via Bluetooth (Nano X) or USB-C cable (Nano S Plus) and verify operations directly on your hardware wallet. This ensures that even if your phone is compromised, your assets remain secure.
For a seamless experience, you can sync your mobile app with Ledger Live Desktop by scanning a QR code. This allows both applications to display the same portfolio information while maintaining separate security contexts.
Mobile Security Tip: Enable biometric authentication (Face ID or fingerprint) in the app settings for an additional layer of security when accessing your portfolio information.
Get a comprehensive overview of your cryptocurrency holdings with real-time price updates, allocation percentages, and performance charts optimized for mobile viewing.
Send and receive cryptocurrencies directly from your mobile device. All transactions must be verified on your Ledger® hardware wallet, ensuring security isn't compromised for convenience.
