Ledger Live App — App guide & troubleshooting

Everything you need to install, fix, recover and verify your Ledger Live App.

What is Ledger Live App?

The Ledger Live App is the official desktop and web application for managing cryptocurrencies with your Ledger hardware device. It provides account overviews, transaction history, staking, swaps, firmware updates and secure signing — all while ensuring your private keys remain inside your Ledger device.

Common issues & practical fixes

If you encounter messages like "Ledger Live App not working", "Unable to login Ledger Live App" or "Error Connecting Ledger Live App Account", try these troubleshooting steps:

  • Ensure your Ledger device firmware and the Ledger Live App are up to date (visit ledger.com/ledger-live).
  • If the web version fails, use the desktop Ledger Live App instead, or clear cache and disable conflicting browser extensions.
  • Reconnect the Ledger device, use an official cable, and confirm any prompts directly on the hardware wallet.
  • If you face verification or "can't verify Ledger Live App" issues, double-check the device’s fingerprint and connection authorization.
  • For "Ledger Live App error decline," verify that the transaction details displayed in the Ledger Live App match those on your device before confirming.

Recovery & 2FA

Ledger Live App Recovery refers to restoring access using your recovery phrase (the 24-word seed phrase created during device setup). Never share your recovery phrase — use it only with your official Ledger device.

Ledger Live App 2fa reset: Ledger devices do not rely on standard 2FA. If you use 2FA for external services, reset it from that service. For Ledger-specific authentication, ensure your device is connected, unlocked, and the Ledger Live App recognizes it correctly.
