Ledger: General Troubleshooting Print
Modified on: Fri, 28 Apr, 2023 at 12:18 PM
⛔ READ THIS FIRST!
You can allow a Ledger account on all chains only if it has been added directly on the Polkadot-JS UI. Ledger accounts added in the Polkadot extension cannot be used on all chains.
However, it is strongly recommended that you use a Ledger account only on one network. Otherwise, you may lose access to your funds.
You can find more information in this article.
