Questions, answered

Is Ledger Live Desktop free?

Yes. Ledger Live Desktop is free to download for Windows, macOS and Linux. You only pay for your Ledger hardware wallet and for network fees when you send or swap.

Are my private keys safe?

Your private keys never leave your Ledger hardware wallet. Every transaction is confirmed on the device screen, so malware on your computer cannot approve a transfer for you.

Which devices and coins work?

Ledger Live works with Ledger Nano S Plus, Nano X, Stax and Flex. It supports 5,500+ coins and tokens across 50+ blockchains, all managed from one dashboard.

What can I do inside the app?

Buy, swap, stake and send from one dashboard. You can also track your portfolio, review your history and add new accounts whenever you like.

How long does setup take?

Setup takes about 10 minutes. Download the app, connect your device, follow the on-screen steps and add your first account. No technical background is needed.

How do updates work?

Ledger Live tells you when a new version is ready. Updates add new assets and features, and your funds stay on the blockchain, protected by your device.

What if I lose my device?

Your recovery phrase restores your accounts on a new Ledger device. Write it down offline, keep it private and never type it into a website or app.

How do I reach support?
