Read transaction details on your Ledger hardware wallet screen before you approve. Don’t rely on what a website or message says.
Your recovery phrase is yours alone. Keep it private and offline; never enter it into a website, chat, or unverified app.
Check the recipient, network, and fees. If a prompt feels unexpected, stop and confirm what’s happening through official help.
Ledger Live is a companion app for viewing crypto accounts and managing a Ledger hardware wallet. In one place, users can review balances, follow activity, discover supported services, and prepare transactions to approve on their device. The app is a software interface; it does not replace the hardware wallet or its recovery phrase.
Before getting started, verify the official Ledger website and download Ledger Live from a trusted source. Connect your device using the setup guidance shown in the app. When sending funds, confirm the recipient and network carefully on the Ledger device screen; never approve a request you did not initiate. Transaction details can be difficult or impossible to reverse.
Keep your recovery phrase private and offline. Ledger support will never need you to share it, and entering it into a website, message, or unfamiliar app can put your assets at risk. Use a strong device passcode, install updates from official channels, and pause if an unexpected prompt appears.
Your balance and available features can vary by network, region, and service provider. Take time to understand fees and third-party terms before proceeding. Self-custody gives you more responsibility, not immunity from risk. Treat every transaction as a deliberate decision, and use official help resources whenever something looks unfamiliar.
