Getting Started with Trezor Suite — Secure Your Crypto™

A concise, colorful guide to install, secure, and use Trezor Suite with best-practice tips and official resources.
Trezor Suite • Quick Intro

Overview

Trezor Suite is the official desktop & web app for managing your Trezor hardware wallet: send, receive, track balances, buy/swap, and update firmware from a secure interface. This guide walks you from download to daily use and gives clear security steps to protect your seed and device.

1. Before you start

Always buy hardware wallets from official channels or trusted resellers. Keep the device in its original packaging until setup, and never share your recovery seed. Plan to work on a private, offline-capable computer if possible.

2. Download & verify

Download Trezor Suite from the official site or GitHub releases. After downloading, verify the installer or signature using the official verification instructions — this prevents tampering and supply-chain attacks.

How to verify

  • Download Suite from the official Trezor site or GitHub releases.
  • Compare checksums or follow the documented verification steps in the Trezor guides.

3. Initial setup (step-by-step)

  1. Install and open Trezor Suite on your desktop or web browser.
  2. Connect your Trezor hardware and follow on-device prompts to create a new wallet or restore one.
  3. Choose a strong PIN and write down the recovery seed on paper (or use a metal backup solution).

PIN & seed tips

Use a PIN you won't forget but that cannot be guessed. Store your recovery seed offline and in multiple safe locations (e.g., one home, one safe deposit box). Never take a photo or store the seed digitally.

4. Using core features

Trezor Suite offers balances & history, send/receive, buy/swap services, settings, and advanced features like passphrase-protected wallets and WalletConnect for dApps. Explore settings to enable discrete mode and label accounts for clarity.

5. Updating firmware

Keep firmware up to date. Trezor Suite will notify you when a device firmware update is available; follow the update flow in Suite and never interrupt a firmware update once it starts.

6. Daily security checklist

  • Verify Suite version before download.
  • Confirm transactions on your physical device screen.
  • Keep operating system and antivirus updated.
  • Use a separate device or browser profile for crypto activity if possible.

7. Troubleshooting & support

If something seems wrong (unexpected prompts, failed verification, or mismatched checksums), stop and contact official support. Don’t continue setup until you confirm integrity.

Closing (quick recap)

Trezor Suite makes hardware-wallet management straightforward — but security habits (verify downloads, confirm on device, secure your seed) are everything. Use the official guides and support channels linked on the right for step-by-step verification, firmware updates, and troubleshooting.
