Your Official Guide to Logging In and Using Ledger® Live Securely


👋 Welcome to Ledger® Live Login

Ledger® Live is your all-in-one crypto platform, designed to work hand-in-hand with your Ledger hardware wallet to help you manage, protect, and grow your digital assets securely. If you’re new or setting up again, this guide will walk you through how to log in to Ledger Live, get started, and stay safe along the way — with full support resources explained.

Whether you're managing Bitcoin, Ethereum, NFTs, or exploring DeFi, everything begins by logging into the secure Ledger Live interface.


🔐 What Does “Log In” Mean in Ledger Live?

Unlike traditional apps, Ledger Live doesn’t use a username or password. Instead, your login process is based on:

  • Connecting your Ledger hardware wallet
  • Entering your PIN on the device
  • Authorizing actions physically

Because your private keys never leave your device, there's no central account to hack or reset — Ledger uses a security-first approach.


🖥 How to “Log In” to Ledger Live (Desktop)

Step 1: Open Ledger Live

Launch the Ledger Live application from your desktop.

Step 2: Plug In or Connect Your Ledger Device

Depending on your model:

  • Nano S Plus: Connect via USB
  • Nano X: Connect via USB or Bluetooth

Step 3: Enter Your PIN

Enter your 4–8 digit PIN directly on the Ledger device. This unlocks your wallet.

Step 4: Allow Ledger Manager (Optional Prompt)

When prompted, approve access to Ledger Manager for updates or app installations.

You’re now “logged in” and can access your dashboard, portfolio, accounts, and features. 🎉


📱 Ledger Live Login for Mobile

  1. Open the Ledger Live mobile app
  2. Enable Bluetooth if using Nano X
  3. Tap Connect device
  4. Confirm the pairing code
  5. Enter PIN on your device
  6. Start managing your crypto securely!

Note: Nano S Plus does not support mobile.


🧠 Why There’s No Username or Password

Ledger doesn’t operate like a bank or web service. You don’t need to create an online profile because your identity is tied to your:

  • Device (Ledger hardware wallet)
  • PIN code
  • 24-word recovery phrase

This means:

  • No emails to verify
  • No password resets
  • No server-stored keys

It’s self-custody at its best — you are the bank 🏦


🔑 Forgot Your PIN?

If you forget your PIN:

  1. Reset the device (after 3 failed attempts, it resets automatically)
  2. Choose “Restore from recovery phrase”
  3. Enter your 24-word phrase carefully
  4. Set a new PIN and continue using your wallet

Your assets remain safe as long as your recovery phrase is secure.


🧾 Lost Ledger Live App?

If you uninstall or lose access to Ledger Live (desktop or mobile):

  • Reinstall the app from the official source
  • Open the app and select “Restore existing wallet”
  • Connect your Ledger device
  • Your accounts and balance will sync back automatically once you reinstall the apps and connect your device

Your assets are stored on the blockchain, not in the app — Ledger Live is simply the interface.


🛡 Security Reminders

Only download Ledger Live from the official Ledger website
Never share your 24-word phrase with anyone
Never enter your phrase on a website
Verify address details on your Ledger screen when sending or receiving
Always confirm every action physically on your device

🔐 Ledger Support will never ask for your recovery phrase, PIN, or to connect to remote software.
