Quick overview
Trezor Suite is the official desktop/web application used with Trezor hardware wallets to securely manage cryptocurrencies, update firmware, and review transaction history. Use the Suite to initialize a device, create or recover a wallet backup, and confirm that you control the device for every transaction.
Why use Trezor Suite?
It centralizes device management, enforces firmware authenticity checks, and reduces exposure compared with hot wallets. The Suite also provides portfolio tracking and optional integrations (swap, buy, and sell partner services) while keeping private keys on the hardware device.
Before you begin
What you’ll need
New Trezor device, a USB cable, a secure offline place for your wallet backup (seed/backup), and a computer you trust. Never share your wallet backup with anyone.
Safety checklist
Do not download Suite from third-party sites; always use official links. Verify downloads and firmware signatures where provided. Trezor’s official pages host setup guides and verification instructions.
Step-by-step getting started (high level)
1. Download & verify
Get the Trezor Suite desktop app or open the official web app. If you download the installer, follow the project's verification steps (checksums/signatures) to ensure integrity before installing.
2. Install and connect
Install Suite for your OS (Windows/Mac/Linux) or use the browser option. Connect your Trezor device, follow the on-screen tutorial that appears on the device itself, and confirm prompts directly on the Trezor screen.
3. Create or recover a wallet
Create a new wallet if this is your first device or use the recovery options to import an existing wallet backup — always perform recovery using the hardware device, not on an internet-connected phone or computer if possible.
4. Firmware & authentication
Update firmware when prompted by Suite. Suite will authenticate device firmware and guides walk through “authenticate device” steps — follow them carefully to confirm genuineness.
Advanced: verification & developer resources
Verify downloads
Use the official download & verify guide to check signatures and hashes. Developers and power users can consult the Suite repository and release notes for technical details.
Where to get help
Trezor’s official support and guides pages contain step-by-step articles and FAQs for Model One, Model T, Safe devices, and Suite connectivity.
Best practices (short)
- Always verify downloaded installers and firmware.
- Record your wallet backup offline and store it safely.
- Keep device firmware and Suite up to date.
- Use strong, unique passwords where Suite requires a password, and enable OS-level full-disk encryption where available.
