Scope: readable transaction confirmation
Ledger's Clear Signing explainer describes two useful ingredients: an understandable description of the action and human-readable transaction fields. These let a user inspect the intended recipient, assets and requested authority on the device. Coverage depends on the supported device, application and transaction flow.
A short confirmation checklist
Identify whether you are transferring an asset, approving a spender or performing another contract action. Compare the recipient or contract with a separately verified address. Check the amount and any allowance against what you meant to authorize. Read the device's display rather than treating a website's friendly explanation as the final instruction.
When details are missing
An unreadable hash or blind-signing warning leaves information you still need to resolve. Stop and consult the application's official guidance instead of enabling a setting simply because a support stranger requests it. Clear presentation improves review; it does not independently establish a contract's safety or make an excessive approval appropriate. Keep a note of the wallet and application versions when documenting an unusual screen. This is a general review checklist, not a claim that all interactions are supported by every hardware wallet.
