Ledger® Live: Desktop® — Getting Started | official

Ledger Live Desktop puts your Ledger experience on your computer, with a clear interface for checking crypto accounts, managing assets, and viewing activity.

Ledger Live Desktop: Navigate Your Crypto With Confidence

Managing cryptocurrency does not have to feel complicated when your wallet routine is well organized. Ledger Live Desktop provides a desktop environment for users who want to review supported accounts and manage digital assets alongside a compatible Ledger hardware wallet.

A Workspace Designed for Desktop Users

A computer screen can provide a useful perspective when reviewing wallet information. With more space available, users can comfortably navigate account details, monitor supported assets, and examine transaction activity.

Ledger Live Desktop is intended to work with compatible Ledger hardware as part of this workflow.

Understand Your Account Activity

Regularly reviewing your wallet can help you stay familiar with your digital assets. Instead of checking information only when you need to send or receive crypto, making account reviews part of your routine can provide a clearer picture of your activity.

The information and features available depend on your specific setup.

What Can You Expect?

Depending on the device, supported cryptocurrency, region, and current software version, Ledger Live Desktop may provide access to:

  • Supported crypto accounts
  • Portfolio information
  • Sending and receiving functions
  • Transaction records
  • Hardware-wallet connectivity
  • Other supported services

Because features may change, confirm current availability through official resources.

Protect Your Digital Assets

Security remains essential regardless of the application you use. Download software from trusted official sources and avoid suspicious websites or unexpected support messages.

Your recovery phrase should never be shared or entered online. Keep it offline and private, away from screenshots, cloud storage, email, websites, and messaging apps.

When making a transaction, carefully review the destination and amount. Confirm the information displayed on your hardware wallet before approving the transaction.

Make Each Step Deliberate

A reliable routine is more valuable than rushing. Review the account, prepare the action, double-check transaction information, and confirm only after verifying the details.

This simple process can help reduce avoidable errors.

Final Thoughts

Ledger Live Desktop gives users a convenient desktop workspace for interacting with supported crypto accounts and compatible Ledger hardware wallets. With careful account reviews, deliberate transaction verification, and strong protection of recovery information, it can support a more organized crypto-management experience.
