Security first

Ledger Live is the companion software to Ledger hardware devices. Private keys are generated and stored only on the device, not on the computer. Every transaction must be confirmed on your device screen — this ensures a secure, tamper-resistant signing flow.

Important safety practices

  • Never share your 24-word recovery phrase — Ledger will never ask for it.
  • Only install apps from the official Ledger catalog inside Ledger Live.
  • Verify addresses on your device screen before confirming a transfer.
  • Keep firmware up to date and use a strong PIN on your device.
