What is Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web application designed to manage hardware wallets from SatoshiLabs. It centralizes wallet management — accounts, transactions, coin portfolios, and device settings — into a secure interface that pairs with your physical Trezor device. Think of the Suite as the command center: it never stores your private keys, only your device does.
Key benefits at a glance
1. Hardware-backed security
Private keys remain on your Trezor device; Trezor Suite handles transaction creation and broadcasting while keeping secrets offline. This separation reduces attack surface compared to hot wallets.
2. Unified view for multiple accounts
Link and watch multiple accounts across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and supported altcoins. The Suite aggregates balances and transaction history so you can monitor portfolios from a single dashboard.
3. Built-in exchange & integrations
Trezor Suite offers third-party integrations for swapping and buying crypto directly in the app. Integrations are optional — you can choose providers and review partners before interacting.
Getting started — quick setup
Step 1: Get the app
Download the official Trezor Suite from the Trezor website. Always verify the download URL and checksum. Official hubs: trezor.io, suite.trezor.io.
Step 2: Connect and initialize
Plug in your Trezor device, follow the on-screen instructions to create a new wallet or restore from a seed phrase. If restoring, enter your recovery phrase only on the device — never type it into a computer. Helpful guides: trezor.io/start, trezor.io/get-started.
Step 3: Explore features
After setup, explore portfolio view, transaction history, coin support list, and account settings. Use the built-in exchange if desired, and enable additional security like passphrase protection for advanced privacy.
Security best practices
Follow a few simple rules to keep your assets safe:
- Buy hardware devices only from official channels. Verify serials and firmware. (See: trezor.io/security.)
- Never share your recovery seed. Store it offline in a secure, fire-resistant place.
- Use a PIN on your device and consider a passphrase for extra account separation.
- Keep software updated — Trezor Suite and the device firmware — and check official release notes on the Trezor blog or support portal.
Advanced features
Passphrase (hidden wallet)
A passphrase augments your recovery seed to create hidden wallets. It increases security but adds complexity — if you forget the passphrase you lose access to that hidden account. Document your approach carefully.
Coin-specific options
Trezor Suite supports many coins natively and via integrations. Some chains require third-party explorers or additional libraries. Check supported assets at trezor.io/coins and the developer wiki at wiki.trezor.io.
