How to connect your Ledger hardware wallet to the Songbird network

​

Hardware wallets are considered among the more secure options to manage crypto assets and store private keys. Your crypto assets can remain safe, even if your computer or phone is compromised, as long as you keep your recovery phrase safe and review all transaction details before confirming transactions.

 

 

Requirements

​

To use your Ledger device with Songbird (SGB), first make sure that you have:

  1. Initialized your Ledger device with a recovery phrase

  2. Protected your Ledger device with a PIN code

  3. Ledger Live is installed, open and ready to use

  4. Installed the latest Ledger device firmware

  5. Installed the latest version of the Ledger Ethereum app

  6. Installed the latest version of Google Chrome​

  7. Installed the MetaMask browser extension​

 

 

Install the Songbird App (Optional)

​

After meeting the requirements, you can install the Songbird app by following these steps:

  1. Open the Manager in Ledger Live

  2. Connect and unlock your Ledger device

  3. Allow the manager on your Ledger device by pressing both buttons

  4. Find Songbird in the app catalog

  5. Click the Install button of the app

  6. Your Ledger device will display Processing…

  7. The app installation is complete

 

You may skip installing the Songbird app as the bridge between MetaMask and Ledger Live currently requires the Ethereum app to be used. Both Ledger apps can be used to sign transactions for the Songbird network.
