Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is my recovery phrase ever transmitted to Ledger?

+
No. Ledger Live never transmits your recovery phrase. It is created and kept offline — only transaction signatures are sent to the network and verified by your hardware device.

2. Can I use Ledger Live without a Ledger device?

+
The full security model requires a Ledger hardware device for signing. You can explore read-only features (portfolio tracking) without a device, but sending or signing transactions requires the device.

3. How are software updates handled?

+
Updates are published, signed, and verifiable. Ledger Live checks signatures before applying updates; always confirm update prompts and download from official sources.

4. What happens if I lose my hardware device?

+
If you lose your device, you can restore accounts and funds on another compatible Ledger device using your recovery phrase. Keep the recovery phrase secure and offline.

5. Are my token balances accurate in real-time?

+
Ledger Live uses trusted node providers and indexers for balance updates. Network latency or provider sync delays may cause small drift; you can rescan an account if values look incorrect.
