4 MIN READ  ·  SELF-CUSTODY

Ledger Live is the companion app used with Ledger hardware wallets to view accounts, manage supported crypto assets, and review transactions. To get started, download Ledger Live only from Ledger’s official website or your device’s verified app store. Check the publisher and URL carefully; search ads, unsolicited messages, and lookalike pages can lead to malicious downloads.

Open the genuine app and follow its on-screen setup instructions. Connect and unlock your hardware device as directed, then use Ledger Live to add accounts for supported networks. Your recovery phrase is for restoring access to your wallet and should never be typed into a website, shared with support, or entered into an unexpected app. Ledger Live support will not ask you to disclose it.

Verify before you approve

Before confirming a transfer, verify the recipient address, network, asset, and amount on your hardware device’s screen—not only on your computer. Review fees and ensure the details match what you intend. Keep your device firmware and app updated through official channels, use a trusted computer, and treat unexpected approval prompts with caution.

Ledger Live provides account-management tools, but self-custody means you remain responsible for protecting your recovery phrase and approving transactions. This guide is educational, not financial advice. Never rush a transfer, and independently verify instructions before taking action. Good security also includes protecting your computer, checking updates, and keeping a private backup in a secure place.
