The Ledger Live App is the official mobile application for Ledger® hardware wallets, providing convenient access to your cryptocurrency assets from your iOS or Android device. This powerful mobile companion allows you to monitor your portfolio, receive transactions, and manage your accounts while maintaining the security of your hardware wallet.
While the app provides full monitoring capabilities, all transaction signing still requires physical confirmation on your Ledger® device, ensuring your private keys never leave the hardware wallet.
To begin using the Ledger Live App, download it from the official app stores:
If you're new to Ledger®, begin by visiting Ledger.com/start to set up your device using a computer. Once your device is set up, you can connect it to the mobile app.
Existing users can directly connect their Ledger® device to the mobile app using a compatible USB cable or Bluetooth connection (for Nano X models).
Security Note: Always download the Ledger Live App from official app stores to avoid counterfeit applications that could compromise your security.
Monitor all your cryptocurrency holdings with real-time price updates, charts, and performance metrics directly from your mobile device.
Generate receiving addresses and QR codes to easily receive cryptocurrencies anywhere, anytime.
Access your complete transaction history with detailed information about each transaction.
Add, remove, and organize your cryptocurrency accounts directly from your mobile device.

The Ledger Live login process on mobile maintains the same security standards as the desktop version. Access to your funds is controlled through your physical hardware device:
For daily monitoring, you can view your portfolio without connecting your device, but any action that requires security confirmation will prompt you to connect your hardware wallet.
The Ledger Live App provides unparalleled convenience for monitoring your portfolio on the go, receiving transactions, and quickly checking your balances without needing a computer.
The Ledger Live Desktop application offers more advanced features including full transaction capabilities, app management, staking services, and exchange integrations. For the complete experience, most users utilize both applications.

Can I use the app without my Ledger device?

How do I update the Ledger Live App?
Updates are delivered through the respective app stores (Apple App Store for iOS, Google Play Store for Android). Enable automatic updates or regularly check for updates to ensure you have the latest security enhancements and features.
