Ledger Adds Compatibility With MetaMask Mobile
Ledger's latest update brings enhanced security to MetaMask Mobile users by enabling Ledger Nano X connections via Bluetooth.
The Deets
- Enhanced Security: Connect Ledger Nano X with MetaMask Mobile for secure transactions.
- Bluetooth Connectivity: Easy pairing process for seamless account management.
- Single Account Sync: Initially, sync one Ledger account with MetaMask Mobile.
- Broadened Accessibility: Ledger and MetaMask partnership enhances user experience and security.
The Bulk
For the first time, MetaMask Mobile users can pair their Ledger Nano X devices via Bluetooth, introducing a new layer of security to their mobile web3 activities.
The process of connecting the Ledger Nano X to the MetaMask Mobile app is straightforward, designed with user convenience in mind. Users simply navigate to the accounts section within the app, select the option to add a hardware wallet, and follow the prompts to complete the Bluetooth pairing.
However, it's important to note that this feature currently supports syncing one Ledger account with MetaMask Mobile at a time, and due to the Bluetooth requirement, the Ledger Nano S Plus is not compatible with this setup.
