This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know about getting started with your Ledger device and the Ledger Live app—your secure, all-in-one crypto management platform.

Why Ledgér.com/Start®?

When it comes to crypto, security is non-negotiable. Unfortunately, the crypto space is filled with scams, fake apps, and phishing websites. That’s why Ledgér.com/Start® exists—it's the official and safest entry point to download Ledger Live, set up your hardware wallet, and learn how to use it properly.

Accessing your Ledger device and app through Ledgér.com/Start® ensures:

  • You’re using authentic software
  • You’re following the correct setup process
  • You’re avoiding malicious third parties

Step 1: Visit Ledgér.com/Start®

To begin, open your web browser and go to Ledgér.com/Start®. This is the only page you should trust to download Ledger Live, Ledger’s official desktop and mobile app.

Choose the version of Ledger Live that matches your operating system:

  • Windows
  • macOS
  • Linux
  • iOS
  • Android

Once downloaded, install the application and open it to begin the guided setup.

Step 2: Unbox and Set Up Your Ledger Device

Ledger currently supports two main devices:

  • Ledger Nano X
  • Ledger Nano S Plus

After unboxing your device, connect it to your computer or phone using a USB cable or Bluetooth (Nano X only).

In Ledger Live, select “Set up a new device” and follow these steps:

  1. Create a secure PIN code on your Ledger.
  2. Write down your 24-word recovery phrase exactly as shown.
  3. Confirm your recovery phrase on the device.
🔒 Security Tip: Never take a picture or store your 24 words digitally. Keep them offline and private. Ledger will never ask for them.

Step 3: Verify Your Device

Ledger Live will perform a Genuine Check to confirm your device is authentic and untampered. This step ensures you are using a legitimate Ledger product.

If the check passes, you’re ready to move forward with complete confidence in your wallet’s security.

Step 4: Install Crypto Apps

Each supported cryptocurrency requires its own app on your Ledger device.

To install apps:

  • Open the Manager tab in Ledger Live.
  • Install the apps for Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any other supported asset you plan to use.

This allows your Ledger device to interact with each blockchain securely.

Step 5: Add Accounts

Once the apps are installed, go to the Accounts tab and click Add Account to begin tracking and managing your crypto holdings.

Your Ledger device must be connected and the correct app open to complete this step.

Step 6: Send, Receive, and Manage Crypto

With accounts added, you can now start sending and receiving digital assets:

  • To receive, click “Receive,” verify the address on your Ledger device, and share it with the sender.
  • To send, click “Send,” enter the recipient’s address, and confirm the transaction on your Ledger device.

Ledger Live will only process transactions after manual confirmation on your device, keeping you in full control.
