The secure command center for managing your crypto assets with Ledger hardware wallets
Official Ledger™ Live Desktop is a powerful desktop and web-based application designed to work seamlessly with Ledger hardware wallets. It allows users to securely manage, buy, sell, stake, and monitor digital assets from one unified interface. Whether you are a beginner entering the world of cryptocurrencies or an experienced investor managing a diversified portfolio, Ledger Live Desktop offers an intuitive yet highly secure environment.
Built with security-first architecture, Ledger Live ensures that your private keys never leave your Ledger device. The app acts as a visual and operational layer, while all sensitive cryptographic operations are confirmed directly on your hardware wallet. This design makes Ledger Live Desktop one of the most trusted solutions for long-term crypto storage and daily asset management.
Ledger Live Desktop is the official companion application for Ledger Nano hardware wallets. Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, it also offers web connectivity features for enhanced accessibility. The platform bridges the gap between offline security and online usability, enabling users to interact with blockchain networks without compromising control over their private keys.
By connecting your Ledger device to the Ledger Live app, you gain access to real-time portfolio tracking, transaction history, account management, and firmware updates. The web app functionality complements the desktop version, allowing supported operations through secure browser connections while maintaining the same security standards.
Ledger Live Desktop allows you to manage thousands of cryptocurrencies and tokens securely. All transactions must be physically approved on your Ledger device, ensuring protection against malware, phishing attacks, and unauthorized access.
The application provides a clear, real-time overview of your crypto portfolio. You can track balances, monitor market values, and view performance trends across all supported assets from a single dashboard.
Through integrated partners, Ledger Live Desktop enables users to buy, sell, and swap cryptocurrencies directly within the app. These services are designed to be simple and secure, reducing the need to transfer funds to third-party exchanges.
Ledger Live supports staking for multiple cryptocurrencies, allowing users to earn passive rewards while retaining full control of their assets. Staking operations are transparent and can be managed easily from within the desktop interface.
Official Ledger™ Live Desktop is fully compatible with Ledger Nano S, Ledger Nano S Plus, and Ledger Nano X hardware wallets. Each device integrates smoothly with the app, providing the same high level of security and user experience.
Security is at the core of the Official Ledger™ Live Desktop experience. The app itself never stores private keys or sensitive recovery data. Instead, all critical actions are isolated within the secure element of your Ledger hardware wallet.
Each transaction must be verified on the device screen, adding a physical layer of security. Even if your computer is compromised, attackers cannot access your assets without direct confirmation from your Ledger device.
Setting up Ledger Live Desktop is a straightforward process. After downloading the official application for your operating system, you can connect your Ledger hardware wallet via USB or Bluetooth. The guided setup walks you through device verification, account creation, and asset installation.
The app also provides firmware update notifications, ensuring your Ledger device remains protected with the latest security enhancements and features.

Customization options allow users to tailor their experience, such as choosing display currencies, managing notifications, and organizing accounts for better visibility.
Choosing the Official Ledger™ Live Desktop app means prioritizing security, transparency, and control. Unlike software-only wallets, Ledger Live works in tandem with hardware wallets to provide unmatched protection against online threats.
