Overview: What should you know about the scenario: Do You Need to Rotate Your PIN Periodically?

Key takeaway: Your recovery phrase and PIN must never leak. Do every operation on the official device and app, and if something is wrong, stop using the device at once and migrate the assets.

Action steps:

  1. Confirm you remember the current recovery phrase first to avoid accidental wipe.
  2. Go to the device settings and choose Change PIN.
  3. Enter the old PIN, then set and confirm the new one.
  4. Reconnect Ledger Live to verify it works.
  5. Log the change date in a safe place — don't write the full PIN anywhere.

Safety reminder: Anyone asking for your recovery phrase or PIN is a scammer. Never enter the recovery phrase into software or webpages, use only official channels for updates and downloads, and migrate assets and report the incident immediately if anything looks off.
