02 — STAY IN CONTROL

Your recovery phrase
is not a login.

Your 24 words are the backup to your wallet—not an account password. Keep them private, offline, and away from every app, browser, and person.

How do I log in to Ledger Live?

Download Ledger Live from Ledger’s official website, open the app, and follow its prompts to connect or pair your Ledger hardware wallet. You confirm access on the physical device with its PIN. Ledger Live does not use a conventional website password login for your wallet.

Does Ledger Live ask for my 24-word recovery phrase?

No. Never type your recovery phrase into Ledger Live, a website, a chat, or a support form. Your recovery phrase is the master backup to your assets. Anyone who gets it can take control of them. Only enter it directly on your genuine Ledger device when you are restoring that device.

Can I use Ledger Live on mobile?

Ledger Live is available for supported desktop and mobile devices. Mobile pairing options depend on your Ledger device and phone; follow the connection instructions shown in the official app and verify prompts on your hardware wallet.

What should I do if Ledger Live will not connect?

First confirm that you installed the latest official app, your device is unlocked, and the connection method is supported. Try another cable or USB port for a wired connection, or review Bluetooth permissions for compatible mobile devices. Do not share your PIN or recovery phrase with anyone offering help.
