Introduction — Why Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web app designed to work with your Trezor hardware wallet. It provides a secure user interface to manage, send, receive, and track supported cryptocurrencies. The Suite pairs with your device to sign transactions on the device itself, keeping your private keys offline and protected.
Quick overview
The typical onboarding flow covers:
- Download and install Trezor Suite (desktop or web).
- Connect your Trezor device and follow the on-screen initialization steps.
- Create or restore your wallet (record your recovery seed securely).
- Start managing assets (send, receive, buy, swap — within Suite or through compatible services).
Step-by-step: Getting started
1. Download and install Trezor Suite
Visit the official download page to get the latest version: trezor.io/trezor-suite. Choose the desktop installer for your OS or use the web version if you prefer not to install software.
2. Connect your Trezor hardware
Use the provided USB cable and connect your Trezor device. Trezor Suite detects the device and walks you through firmware installation if needed. Always confirm device prompts on the physical device display — this is where authenticity and important confirmations happen.
Tip:
If the Suite asks to install firmware, only proceed if you are using the official app and connected via the official link. The device will show the firmware fingerprint before you confirm.
3. Create or restore a wallet
When initializing, you can create a new wallet (this generates a recovery seed) or restore an existing wallet using your seed phrase. Write the recovery seed down on paper (or another secure offline medium) and store it in a safe place — never share it online.
Security best practice
Never type your recovery seed into a computer or phone, never photograph it, and never store it in cloud services. Consider splitting and storing backups across multiple secure locations.
4. Managing funds
Once set up, you can receive funds to addresses generated in Suite (check address on-device), send by composing a transaction in Suite and confirming on your device, and track balances from the dashboard.
Address verification
Always verify the address shown in the Suite against the address displayed on your Trezor device. This prevents malware from substituting addresses.
Common questions
Can I install Trezor Suite on multiple machines?
Yes. You may install Suite on any number of trusted machines — your seed and device remain the source of truth. Treat every machine where you install Suite as a potentially sensitive environment and follow good security hygiene.
What happens if my device is lost or damaged?
If you lose the physical device, you can restore your wallet (with the same addresses and funds) on a new Trezor or on any compatible recovery method using the recovery seed you recorded when you first set up the device.
