Welcome — Access Ledger Live with Confidence
The Ledger Live Login portal combines industry-leading hardware security with a modern, easy-to-use interface. Ledger devices keep your private keys completely offline; Ledger Live acts as the secure companion application that reads only public account data and requests signatures directly on your device. This page explains how the login flow works, how to keep your accounts safe, and what to do if something goes wrong.
Why Ledger Live Login is important
Ledger Live uses your physical Ledger hardware (Nano S, Nano X, Stax, etc.) to authenticate actions — not passwords or cloud accounts. Because private keys never leave the device, remote attackers cannot extract them from your computer. Every send or account-modifying action requires your explicit, on-device approval, which significantly reduces phishing and malware risks.
How the login flow works — step by step
- Download Ledger Live: Install the official Ledger Live app from the Ledger website.
- Connect your Ledger device: Use USB or Bluetooth (Nano X) and unlock with your PIN.
- Open the manager or account: Ledger Live detects your unlocked device and synchronizes account balances.
- Approve on-device: Whenever Ledger Live asks for a signature or to connect, confirm directly on the device screen.
Security checklist — protect your assets
- Only download Ledger Live from the official ledger.com domain.
- Never disclose your 24-word recovery phrase — Ledger support will never ask for it.
- Use a secure PIN on your device and keep firmware up to date.
- Verify addresses and amounts on the device screen before confirming transactions.
Troubleshooting common issues
If Ledger Live does not detect your device, check the cable and port, ensure the device is unlocked, and confirm firmware compatibility. On mobile, enable Bluetooth and necessary permissions. Restart the app and device if needed; reinstall Ledger Live as a last resort.
When to seek official support
If you suspect your recovery phrase or device has been compromised, move funds to a fresh wallet immediately and contact official Ledger Support for step-by-step assistance. Always verify support URLs and avoid third-party services that request your seed phrase.
