On-the-go portfolio
Quickly check balances, view recent transactions and get price alerts for tracked assets. The mobile UI is optimized for fast glances and deeper account inspection when needed.
The Ledger Live App is the official mobile companion for Ledger hardware wallets. Use it to check balances, receive push notifications about portfolio changes, prepare transactions and export unsigned payloads for on-device signing. It’s designed to complement the hardware-first security model while giving you a lightweight mobile experience.

The Ledger Live App is built to extend the Ledger hardware model — it is a mobile-first companion that provides convenient access to portfolio data and interaction workflows without ever taking custody of private keys. When you install the app, the recommended flow is to first verify the app store listing and confirm you are downloading from the official publisher. After installing, the app will offer options to pair with a Ledger device using Bluetooth or to operate in a view-only mode where the app only displays public account data. For Bluetooth pairing, the app and device exchange a short pairing code which you must confirm directly on the Ledger device screen; this ensures the mobile app and the physical device are genuinely connected and prevents silent MITM (man-in-the-middle) pairing attempts.
Preparing transactions on mobile is intentionally separated from signing. The app can build a fully-formed transaction and then transfer it to the Ledger device — via Bluetooth or QR — for final signing. This keeps the critical signing operation on the device where the private keys live. Users who prefer maximum isolation will use the app in a read-only mode and only bring a trusted companion (e.g., an air-gapped computer) to perform signing tasks. The Ledger Live App supports exportable unsigned payloads which advanced users can verify and sign with external tools before broadcasting.
Security best practices for mobile usage include: enabling device-level biometrics or strong passcodes for the app, restricting notification content to non-sensitive alerts, and routine reviews of paired devices in app settings. If you lose your phone, revoke pairings and consider using backup devices or recovery workflows. Importantly, never enter your recovery phrase into the mobile app or any online device. Use the recovery flow only on the Ledger device itself during initial setup or on a secure, offline restore environment.
For developers and enterprise integrators, the app provides APIs and structured payload formats for interoperability. This allows for building custom workflows that prepare transactions on mobile while delegating signing to audited hardware. Enterprises should adopt deployment models that include MDM (mobile device management) and regular security audits. Finally, keep both the Ledger Live App and the Ledger device firmware updated using official channels — updates often include important security fixes and interoperability improvements. ¡Mantén tu app y dispositivo actualizados y verifica siempre las fuentes oficiales!
