Use the Ledger Live application to pair with Ledger devices and perform secure operations such as sending assets, staking supported tokens, managing NFTs, and updating firmware — all while private keys remain inside the device.
Ledger Live’s workflow requires physical confirmation on your device for every sensitive action, ensuring that transactions initiated in the app cannot be altered by software on your computer. This model keeps the attack surface minimal and preserves trust in cryptographic operations.
The app provides portfolio summaries, historical charts, swap integrations, staking partners, and device management tools. Ledger Live centralizes common tasks so you don’t need to juggle multiple apps while staying in control of your keys.
Ledger Live interoperates with a broad ecosystem of wallets, DeFi services, and marketplaces. Developers can integrate signing flows and rely on Ledger Live for consistent UX across chains and devices.
