How Ledger Live Login Works

1. Open Ledger Live

Launch the Ledger Live application on your desktop or mobile device. Ensure you downloaded it from the official Ledger website.

2. Connect Your Ledger Device

Plug in your Ledger Nano S Plus or Nano X via USB (or Bluetooth for Nano X). Enter your PIN on the device to unlock it.

3. Verify Device Authenticity

Ledger Live automatically checks device authenticity using cryptographic verification before granting access.

4. Access Portfolio

Once authenticated, you can access your accounts, balances, transaction history, and crypto applications securely.

Multi-Layer Security Protection

Secure Element Chip

Ledger devices use a certified Secure Element chip (EAL5+) to store private keys safely and prevent unauthorized extraction.

PIN Code Protection

A mandatory PIN protects against physical theft. Multiple incorrect attempts trigger device reset.

On-Device Confirmation

Every transaction requires manual confirmation on the Ledger device screen.

Recovery Phrase Backup

Your 24-word recovery phrase ensures you can restore your wallet even if your device is lost or damaged.

Troubleshooting Ledger Live Login

Device Not Recognized: Ensure USB cable is functioning and Ledger Live is updated.
Forgot PIN: Reset the device and restore using your 24-word recovery phrase.
Bluetooth Issues (Nano X): Re-enable Bluetooth and restart both device and Ledger Live.
