💡 About Ledger Live
Ledger Live is the companion application for all Ledger hardware wallets. It allows users to manage over 5,000+ cryptocurrencies, view balances, send or receive crypto, stake tokens, and swap digital assets within a unified dashboard. The app integrates seamlessly with your hardware wallet, ensuring every transaction is verified on the device before approval — keeping hackers out.
🛡️ Security Tips for New Users
- Never share your 24-word recovery phrase. Ledger will never ask for it.
- Always download software directly from Ledger.com.
- Keep your firmware updated to protect from vulnerabilities.
- Enable password locks and set up strong PINs.
- Avoid connecting your Ledger to untrusted or public computers.
⚠️ Important: If any website or email asks for your recovery phrase, it’s a scam. Only your device should ever display it.
