Ledger® Live: Desktop is the official application that lets you manage your Ledger® hardware wallet with ease and security. Whether you're using a Ledger Nano S Plus or Nano X, Ledger Live connects your wallet to the blockchain without ever exposing your private keys online.
To begin, visit the official site at https://www.ledger.com/start and follow the guided setup. Download Ledger Live for Windows, macOS, or Linux and install it securely. Connect your Ledger device via USB and follow the prompts to create a PIN and back up your 24-word recovery phrase — your only backup to recover your assets.
Once set up, install crypto apps (like Bitcoin or Ethereum) through My Ledger, then add accounts to manage your funds. You can send, receive, and swap assets — all confirmed with a physical tap on your device, ensuring every transaction is verified by you.
Ledger Live also allows you to stake crypto, track portfolio performance, and manage NFTs — all while keeping your keys offline.
For maximum safety and control, always download software and updates from Ledger’s official site. Ledger Live: Desktop gives you the tools to manage your digital assets securely and confidently.
