Trezor Suite — Everything you need to manage your hardware wallet

Trezor Suite acts as the user interface between you and your Trezor hardware device. It helps you create and manage accounts, send and receive coins, view transaction history, and interact with additional features like coin swaps or connect to external dApps (when available).

Key features at a glance

Secure device pairing

Pair Trezor Suite with your hardware wallet via USB or WebUSB — transactions always require you to confirm on the hardware device.

Account and portfolio view

See balances across supported accounts, transaction history, and portfolio valuation (where supported).

Transaction signing

All private keys remain inside the device; Suite prepares transactions, your device signs them, then Suite broadcasts the signed transaction.

How to get started (basic)

  1. Download Trezor Suite — from the official Trezor website. Use the official link only.
  2. Install & open Suite — choose desktop or use the protected web version.
  3. Connect your Trezor device and follow on-screen instructions to unlock/initialize.
  4. Backup your recovery seed — write it down offline and store it safely. Do not take pictures or store on cloud services.
  5. Create accounts & receive funds — generate receive addresses from Suite and verify on your device screen before sharing.

Security model & best practices

The core security promise is that private keys never leave the Trezor hardware device. Suite is the interface that constructs transactions and displays human-readable details for you to verify before signing.

  • Verify addresses on device: Always confirm that the receive address shown in Suite matches the device screen.
  • Keep your recovery seed offline: Store it physically (steel backup is preferred by high-security users).
  • Update firmware carefully: Only update firmware through official Suite prompts, and verify firmware signatures where indicated.

Note: No wallet is a silver bullet. Combine hardware security with safe operational practices.

FAQ
