Ledger Live is primarily a desktop and mobile application, not a website where you enter your recovery phrase. Only download the app using Ledger’s official website at ledger.com/ledger-live. Be cautious of sponsored search results and lookalike domains.
The app password protects the app on that device; it is not your recovery phrase or a Ledger account password. Use the app’s official reset or clear-data guidance and then reconnect your Ledger device to add accounts again. Your recovery phrase can restore access to your assets, so never share or enter it into a website.
Try another USB cable or port, close other wallet applications, update Ledger Live and your device firmware through the official app, then restart both. On mobile, check Bluetooth permissions and that your device supports the connection method. Follow Ledger Support instructions for your specific device.
No legitimate support agent needs your recovery phrase. Anyone who asks for it, requests a screen share of it, or asks you to enter it on a website is attempting to gain control of your assets. Keep it offline and private.
