Hey, the 24 words recovery phrase are the keys to your funds, in case anything happens to your device and you get a new one, you will restore access to funds on it with the previous 24. So anyone with the 24 words can take access of funds
Your funds are never on the Ledger, Ledger Live, or installed apps, they are on the blockchain protected by your offline generated 24 words recovery phrase: [https://www.ledger.com/academy/crypto/where-are-my-coins](https://www.ledger.com/academy/crypto/where-are-my-coins)
If the device gets stolen, the thief has 3 PIN tries, after that it will factory reset erasing all apps, 24 words, and PIN it previously held, prompting to set it up as new afterwards.
If someone had your phone, sure they can open the Ledger Live app and see the balance, but they can’t send without having the physical Ledger device connected and PIN unlocked to manually confirm the transaction on the Ledger itself.
