What is Ledger Live Wallet?
Ledger Live Wallet is the official desktop and web application for managing cryptocurrencies with your Ledger hardware device. It provides account overviews, transaction history, staking, firmware updates, and secure signing — ensuring your private keys always remain within the device.
Common issues & practical fixes
If you encounter errors such as "Ledger Live Wallet not working", "Unable to login Ledger Live Wallet" or "Error Connecting Ledger Live Wallet Account", try these steps:
- Update both your Ledger firmware and the Ledger Live Wallet app by visiting ledger.com/start.
- Try the desktop app if the web app fails, or clear cache and disable browser extensions.
- Reconnect the device using an official USB cable, and check the Ledger device screen for prompts.
- If you see “Can’t verify Ledger Live Wallet”, confirm the device’s fingerprint and model match what’s displayed in the app before proceeding.
- For “Ledger Live Wallet error decline”, ensure you approve the exact transaction details shown on your hardware device.
Recovery & 2FA
Ledger Live Wallet Recovery involves restoring access using your 24-word recovery phrase created during device setup. Never share your recovery phrase — it is the key to your funds. Use it only on your Ledger device following official guides at support.ledger.com.
Ledger Live Wallet 2fa reset: Ledger devices themselves don’t use cloud 2FA. If you’ve set up 2FA with an external service, reset it from there. To regain access within Ledger Live Wallet, ensure your device is connected, unlocked, and trusted by the app.
