Ledger® Live: Login | Secure Access to Your Wallet

Ledger Live is the official application for managing your Ledger hardware wallet. Logging in securely ensures that you can safely view balances, send and receive cryptocurrency, and manage multiple accounts—all while keeping your private keys offline.

Ledger® Live Login is the first step in accessing your crypto assets through Ledger Live, whether on desktop or mobile devices.

What is Ledger Live Login?

Ledger Live Login is the process of connecting your Ledger hardware wallet to the Ledger Live application. Unlike traditional online logins, Ledger Live does not store your private keys online. Instead, your keys remain securely on your hardware wallet, which provides:

• Secure access to cryptocurrency accounts
• Management of multiple accounts and crypto assets
• Encrypted communication between Ledger Live and your device
• Protection against malware and phishing attacks

How to Perform Ledger Live Login

Step 1: Open Ledger Live

• Download and install Ledger Live from the official site: Ledger.com/Start®.
• Open the application on your computer or mobile device.

Step 2: Connect Your Ledger Device

• Plug your Ledger hardware wallet (Nano S, Nano S Plus, or Nano X) into your computer using the USB cable, or connect via Bluetooth if using Ledger Nano X.
• Make sure your device powers on and displays the home screen.

Step 3: Enter Your PIN

• Your Ledger device will display a randomized PIN entry matrix.
• Enter your PIN on your computer using the mapping displayed on your device.
• This ensures your PIN cannot be intercepted by malware or keyloggers.

Step 4: Access Your Wallet

• Once your PIN is verified, Ledger Live will connect to your device.
• You can now view balances, manage multiple cryptocurrency accounts, send and receive funds, and install apps on your Ledger device.
