5. Supported Platforms & Requirements

  • Desktop: Windows 10+, macOS 10.11+, Linux (Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora)
  • Web: Firefox, Chrome, Brave, Chromium; requires Trezor Bridge for hardware connectivity

Ensure your device meets system requirements for optimal performance.

6. First-Time Setup with Trézor Suite

  1. Order from trezor.io/start to ensure genuine hardware
  2. Unbox and verify the tamper‑proof seal
  3. Choose between creating a new wallet or recovering from a seed
  4. Record your recovery seed offline
  5. Set a strong 4–9 digit PIN
  6. Optionally enable a passphrase for hidden wallets

Once initialized, your wallet is ready for Suite integration.

7. Installing & Launching the App

  • Desktop: Download from trezor.io/suite, install, open the app
  • Web: Visit suite.trezor.io/web, connect hardware
  • No account required—all data and privacy are local
  • Browser users must install Trezor Bridge for communication

Both versions offer the same core experience, tailored to security needs.

8. Connecting Your Trézor Device

  1. Plug in your device via USB
  2. Desktop Suite auto-detects it; web users must install Bridge
  3. Enter your PIN
  4. Confirm the connection on the device screen
  5. Suite displays your wallet dashboard

Every Suite session requires device authentication—no hidden access.

9. Receiving Crypto with Suite

  • Go to "Receive"
  • Select your coin account
  • Verify the address displayed matches your Trézor device
  • Copy, scan, or share the verified address
  • Track confirmations live in Suite

On‑device verification ensures authenticity against malware.

10. Sending Crypto Securely

  • Select "Send"
  • Input recipient address and amount
  • Set fee (predefined or custom)
  • Review details within Suite
  • Confirm the transaction on your Trézor device

Your private keys remain secure and never exposed.

11. Portfolio Management & Analytics

Suite provides detailed insights:

  • Asset allocation and value over time
  • Transaction history with filtering/tagging options
  • Exportable CSV files for tax or accounting use
  • Support for multiple crypto accounts

Customize your dashboard with clear visualizations.

12. Buying, Swapping & Exchange

Within Suite you can:

  • Buy crypto via MoonPay, Coinify, Ramp
  • Instantly swap between assets via Wyre, ChangeNow, Invity
  • Compare rates from different providers before confirming

All transactions require your physical approval on-device.

13. Staking, DeFi & dApp Integration

  • Earn staking rewards for coins like Ethereum, Tezos, Polkadot, Cosmos, etc. (according to availability)
  • Access DeFi and Web3 dApps through integrated links
  • Use third-party wallets (e.g., MetaMask, Unicorn) alongside Trézor to sign transactions securely

Suite serves as a secure launching point for web3 activities.

14. Advanced Security: PINs & Passphrases

  • PIN protection prevents unauthorized access even if your device is stolen
  • A passphrase acts as an additional secret—generating new, hidden wallets not backed up by your standard seed
  • Hidden wallets unlock with the passphrase only, enabling plausible deniability

Use these features to enhance your security posture.

15. Hidden Wallets & Privacy Settings

Hidden wallets also support CoinJoin on Bitcoin (Model T only). Additional privacy tools include:

  • Option to disable analytics and auto-sync
  • Labeling transactions without data leaving your machine
  • Tor support for desktop users routing network communication securely

Build your desired level of privacy control with Suite.

16. Token & NFT Handling

  • Support for ERC-20, BEP-20, Polygon tokens
  • NFT gallery for managing Ethereum/Polygon-based NFTs
  • Hidden wallets keep specific token/NFT data invisible by default

Use third-party Web3 interfaces when full token interaction is required—but all signing stays secure on-device.

17. Firmware, Coin Apps & Updates

  • Suite's Manager pane alerts you to firmware updates
  • Updates secure your device and enable new coin support
  • Coin app management is integrated—simplify installation and removal

All actions demand user confirmation on the device.

18. Troubleshooting Common Issues

  • Device not recognized: Check USB ports, cables, reinstall Bridge
  • PIN entry fails: Use alternate keypad layout or reset after recovery
  • Transaction errors: Confirm fees & network status
  • App crashes: Reinstall Suite, clear cache, or restart machine

Consult SatoshiLabs’ support guides or community forum if issues persist.

19. Staying Safe from Phishing & Scams

  • Always use trezor.io, suite.trezor.io, or the desktop app
  • Never install browser add-ons unless from the official source
  • Avoid sharing your PIN or seed—support never asks for them
  • Verify your device on Suite with the genuine check
  • Use antivirus, VPNs, and strong passwords to protect your environment

Cybersecurity vigilance is your safety net.
