How to access Ledger Live
Ledger Live is an app—not a web page where you type in your recovery phrase. Here’s the straightforward way to get started.
Open and connect
Launch the app and connect your Ledger hardware wallet when prompted. Follow the on-screen instructions on both your computer or phone and your device.
Unlock on your device
Enter your PIN directly on your Ledger device. Ledger Live does not need your recovery phrase to sign in or show your portfolio.
Important: Never enter your 24-word recovery phrase into Ledger Live, a website, or a support chat. It belongs offline and should only be entered on your Ledger device when you are restoring it.

Do I need an account password to use Ledger Live?+
Ledger Live access is associated with your app setup and connected hardware wallet. Your device PIN unlocks the device; it is not an online account password. Never share your PIN or recovery phrase with anyone.
Why can’t Ledger Live find my device?+
Try another USB cable or port, unlock the device, and confirm the relevant app is open on the hardware wallet. Update Ledger Live and device firmware only through official Ledger channels.
Can Ledger Support ask for my 24-word recovery phrase?+
No. Your recovery phrase is private and should only be entered into your Ledger device during a recovery process that you initiated. Never type it into a website, app, message, or support chat.
Is Ledger Live a browser-based wallet login?+
Ledger Live is an application. Be wary of pages claiming to be a Ledger login portal or asking you to connect a wallet and enter recovery words. Navigate to Ledger’s official site directly.
