Quick, clear, and practical — this guide walks you through setting up Trezor Suite, securing your device, basic day-to-day workflows, and tips to avoid common mistakes. Wherever you see the link below, it points to the official place to download and learn more:

Overview: What is Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite is the desktop/web companion app that helps you manage your Trezor hardware wallet. It offers a secure interface to view balances, send and receive crypto, manage accounts and settings, and connect to supported networks and tokens. Always download Trezor Suite from the official source linked here:
Official Site® — Trezor Suite®.
Why use Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite reduces risk by separating your private keys (kept on the physical device) from the user interface. The Suite handles network communication and transaction construction while the device signs transactions — keeping private keys offline.
What you'll need before you begin
A Trezor hardware device (Trezor Model T or One).
A computer with a supported browser and USB port, or the desktop app downloaded from the official site: Official Site® — Trezor Suite®.
Your recovery seed (created safely during setup) — write this down and store offline.
Step-by-step setup
1. Download the Suite safely
Always go to the official source. Use this link to get the right installer for your OS: Official Site® — Trezor Suite®. Verifying the download signature where provided adds an extra layer of safety.
2. Connect and initialize your device
Connect your Trezor to the computer, open Trezor Suite, and follow on-screen prompts. If you're creating a new wallet, generate the recovery seed when instructed — write it down on the supplied card or a secure metal backup. Never store the seed as plain text on your phone or cloud storage.
Device PIN & seed
Choose a PIN you can remember but that isn't guessable. The recovery seed is the ultimate backup — protect it physically. If you ever need to recover your wallet, the seed is what restores access.
Daily use: sending, receiving and account management
Receiving funds
To receive crypto, open the receive tab in Trezor Suite and verify the address on the device screen before sharing it. The Suite will display the address but only trust the address that matches the device display.
Sending funds
When sending, always confirm the transaction details on the device. Trezor Suite will build the transaction but the final signature must be approved on the hardware device — this prevents remote tampering.
Advanced options
Use the fee slider to adjust transaction priority. For many networks, Suite provides recommended fee suggestions; if you're unsure, choose a middle option to balance speed and cost.
This is non-negotiable: anyone with your seed can control your funds. Trezor employees or support will never ask for your seed or PIN. If someone requests it, it's a scam. Use the official support channels listed at the official site: Official Site® — Trezor Suite®.
Keep firmware updated
Periodically check for firmware updates in Trezor Suite. Updates can add features and fix vulnerabilities. Only update using Suite and verify the update prompts on your device.
Offline backups
For long-term storage, consider using metal backup plates and multiple geographically separated copies of your recovery seed. Treat those backups as cash — physical and secret.
Troubleshooting & FAQs
Suite won't connect to device
Try a different USB cable or port, and ensure no other wallet software is holding the connection. Restart Suite and reconnect the device. If problems persist, consult the official documentation: Official Site® — Trezor Suite®.
Lost device — how to recover?
Use your recovery seed with another compatible Trezor device or supported recovery method to restore access. If your seed is compromised, move funds to a newly created wallet as soon as possible.
Contact support safely
Always use the verified support pages or contact methods listed on the official site to avoid impersonators: Official Site® — Trezor Suite®.
