Ledger Live – The Official App for Secure Crypto Management

In the fast-moving world of digital assets, secure self-custody tools have become essential for anyone serious about protecting their crypto. At the heart of Ledger's hardware wallet ecosystem is Ledger Live, the official companion app that lets you manage, buy, sell, and stake your assets — all in one interface, with full control and maximum security.

Whether you're a beginner setting up your Ledger device for the first time or an experienced crypto user looking for advanced features, Ledger Live provides a complete platform to manage your digital wealth.

What Is Ledger Live?

Ledger Live is a desktop and mobile application developed by Ledger to work with its hardware wallets — primarily the Ledger Nano S Plus, Ledger Nano X, and Ledger Stax. It allows users to securely manage their crypto holdings without exposing private keys to the internet.

Unlike browser-based wallets or custodial exchanges, Ledger Live ensures that your private keys stay offline, locked inside your Ledger device. The app acts as the control panel — while the hardware device handles all signing and authorization.

Ledger Live is available on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android.
