Ledger LiveCredit to
Pmalek with
that postSince no one has explained how to create a Taproot address on Ledger Live yet, I will briefly describe the process.
After opening and logging in to your Ledger Live account, connect and unlock your hardware wallet with your PIN.
Now click on the "Accounts" tab on the left. On the dropdown list select Bitcoin and click on "Continue".
Ledger Live will then scan all existing Bitcoin accounts that are or aren't part of your portfolio. Give it a minute to finish or stop the scanning process by clicking on the "Stop" button.
To add a Taproot account, you need to switch on the "show all address types" under "Add new account". Give your Taproot account a name and click on the "Add account" button at the bottom.
If done successfully, a confirmation screen will inform you that your new account has been added to your portfolio. You can see it at the bottom of your "Accounts" tab because it's addresses are still unfunded.
To generate a Taproot address, you now need to click on the "Receive" tab on the left, select your new Taproot account on the list, and click "Continue".
A new address will be generated for you. Compare and confirm that the address on Ledger Live matches the one on your hardware wallet and approve it by clicking on both buttons on the device.
You have now successfully created a Taproot address in Ledger Live.

that postSoftware and Hardware wallet that Husna QA used in this test:
- Ledger Live Android v3.3.2

In the "Device" option, select the hardware wallet that is connected to Ledger Live.
If the hardware wallet name doesn't appear, tap "Pair with Bluetooth" (Nano X) or connect it via a USB cable (Nano S, Nano S Plus, Nano X).
"Open the Bitcoin app on your device".
Ledger Live will scan all Bitcoin accounts.
Select "More address types" to display other Bitcoin accounts.

Here is the newly created Bitcoin (Taproot) account:
To generate a Taproot address, tap Bitcoin Account (Taproot), Select "Receive".

Verify address on Device.
Select "Copy address" or "Share address" to copy or share the Taproot address.

that postOneKey recently added support for Taproot, so here are the steps for creating Taproot addresses in their Android app
[it seems to be "open-source"]:
- When you first open the app, it creates an Ethereum account by default, so you have to change it from the top of the page and select Bitcoin.
- Then click the "create account" button:
- Choose Taproot
- Click "receive" button
