Strong Security Practices

  1. Only download Ledger Live from ledger.com. Counterfeit apps—especially on macOS—remain a major threat Reddit+15TechRadar+15access-ledgr-eng-web.teachable.com+15.
  2. Never enter your 24‑word recovery phrase on any computer, website, or unofficial app. Ledger will never request it TechRadar+15faq-ledgercom-docs-begin.teachable.com+15connect-ledger-faq-support.teachable.com+15.
  3. Verify every transaction on your device screen, not just on Ledger Live access-ledgr-eng-web.teachable.com+3connect-ledger-faq-support.teachable.com+3awsdx+3.
  4. Enable PIN security, choose a strong code; Nano X users should also enable biometric locks on mobile help-ledgger.gitbook.io+6access-en-ledegr.teachable.com+6livelogiin-ledge-live.teachable.com+6.

❓ Can I access Ledger Live without the device?

❓ What if I forget my device PIN?

❓ Can Ledger Live be used on multiple devices?

Yes—install it on multiple desktops or phones. But each login requires connecting your Ledger hardware and entering the PIN.

Buy a new Ledger device, choose “Restore from recovery phrase,” enter your words carefully, and reconnect in Ledger Live. Your accounts will return Reddit+12connect-ledger-faq-support.teachable.com+12livelogiin-ledge-live.teachable.com+12Reddit+13ladger-us-en-access.teachable.com+13access-ledgr-eng-web.teachable.com+13.
