Overview of core features

Ledger Live Desktop® delivers account management, device updates, staking, swaps via partners, portfolio analytics, and app management. The Desktop app focuses on keeping private keys on-device while providing a modern UX for portfolio and asset operations.

Integrations: staking & swaps

Ledger Live Desktop® integrates with staking providers so users can delegate or stake eligible assets in-app. Swaps are implemented through partner providers; Ledger Live acts as a secure front-end and signature relayer while partners facilitate the trade execution. Always review partner terms before swapping.

Developer & third-party integrations

Developers building on top of Ledger typically use Ledger’s published SDKs and app development frameworks for secure transaction signing. Official documentation and developer guidance are on Ledger's website.
