I have few questions still, I want to know if connecting software wallet to your hardware wallet gives it the security as intended? If I start using software wallet on my hardware wallet does it add more to it's security? Or it's a bad idea?
Yes, in order to improve security, software wallets can be linked to hardware wallets. The two wallets work well together to secure your assets and keys, and some software wallet providers suggest using their products in addition to hardware wallets for optimal security. Read quote below

Luckily, even when you must use a software wallet, you can combine it with a hardware wallet to experience the best of both worlds. While the software wallet provides you access to the platform you want, your hardware wallet can protect your private keys and sign transactions offline. This way, you can easily access apps and services with the confidence your private keys are secure.
