[ Questions ]

Answers before you ask

Security, devices, updates, recovery and platforms, explained plainly for over 6 million users worldwide.

Is my crypto safe in the app?

Yes. Private keys never leave your hardware device, so every transaction is signed on the device itself and never on your computer. Ledger Live only shows balances and prepares the transfer for you to approve.

Which devices work with it?

Ledger Live: Desktop works with Ledger Nano S Plus, Nano X and Stax. Connect your device by cable or Bluetooth where supported, and your accounts appear in the dashboard within moments.

Which platforms can I use?

The app is free to download for Windows, macOS and Linux. It supports 5,500+ coins and tokens, so you can buy, swap, stake and send from one dashboard without switching tools.

How do updates work?

The app tells you when a new version is ready, and firmware updates for your device are handled in the same place. Each update is verified before it installs, and your funds stay untouched throughout.

What if I lose my device?

Your recovery phrase restores access to your accounts on a new device. Write it down offline, store it somewhere safe and never share it with anyone, including support staff.

How long does setup take?

Setup takes about 10 minutes. Install the app, connect your device, follow the guided steps and add your first account. Support is available 24/7 in 6 languages if you need a hand.
