Ledger® Live Login® (en-US) | Ledger Support
In today's cryptocurrency landscape, strong security practices are essential. With hardware wallet leader Ledger®, protecting your digital assets starts at the login stage. While many ask about “Ledger Live Login®,” there’s no username or password — your Ledger device itself (Nano S Plus, Nano X, or Stax) is your key. This guide explains how Ledger Live’s login system works, best security practices, and how Ledger Support (en‑US) can assist you.
🔐 What Is Ledger Live Login®?
Ledger Live is the official app for managing your crypto via your Ledger wallet. Available for desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and mobile (iOS, Android), it doesn't require traditional credentials. Instead, you log in by:
- Launching Ledger Live (download via Ledger.com/start).
- Connecting your Ledger hardware (USB or Bluetooth).
- Entering your PIN on the device.
- Confirming your identity by approving actions on-screen.
This ensures your private keys never leave the device
