What is Ledger Live?
Ledger Live is an official application that acts as a secure interface between you and your Ledger hardware wallet. Available on desktop and mobile, it provides portfolio overviews, account management, send/receive flows, staking, app management for your device, and vetted third-party integrations — while private keys remain isolated on your Ledger device. In short, Ledger Live lets you interact with blockchains safely without exposing sensitive keys to potentially compromised computers or phones.

- Third-party integrations: Access DeFi, swaps, and NFT services through vetted partners while keeping final approvals on-device.
- Cross-platform: Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and mobile (iOS, Android) support for flexible workflows.
