Trezor Suite (Official)** | Congrats on Your New Trezor - Trezor®
Congratulations on your new Trezor® device—one of the most secure ways to protect, manage, and interact with your cryptocurrencies. With the increasing risks of cyber threats, phishing attacks, and online wallet vulnerabilities, opting for a Trezor hardware wallet backed by Trezor Suite is a strong commitment to safeguarding your digital assets.
Whether you’ve purchased the Trezor Model One or the Trezor Model T, the Trezor Suite application serves as the central command hub for managing your wallet, coins, and privacy settings. This guide will walk you through what Trezor Suite is, how to use it, and the features it offers to elevate your crypto security experience.
What is Trezor Suite?
Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web-based application developed by SatoshiLabs, specifically designed to work seamlessly with your Trezor device. It replaces the older Trezor Wallet interface and brings enhanced security, privacy, usability, and functionality—all in one platform.
Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Trezor Suite is where you’ll:
- Set up your Trezor device
- Send and receive crypto
- Check your portfolio
- Update firmware
- Adjust security preferences
- Use third-party integrations for exchanges and swaps
First Steps with Your New Trezor
1. Unbox & Verify
Before anything, unbox your new Trezor device. Make sure it hasn’t been tampered with and verify the device’s authenticity by visiting the official website.
2. Install Trezor Suite
Go to the official Trezor website and download Trezor Suite for your operating system. Alternatively, you can use the web version, although the desktop version offers better security by avoiding browser-based attacks.
3. Connect Your Device
Use the USB cable provided to connect your Trezor to your computer. Open Trezor Suite, and it will automatically detect the connected device.
Setting Up Your Wallet
4. Install Firmware
Most new Trezor devices ship without pre-installed firmware. Trezor Suite will prompt you to install the latest, officially signed firmware. This ensures the device has not been pre-configured by a third party.
5. Create a Wallet
Once firmware installation is complete, you’ll be given the option to create a new wallet. The Trezor device will generate a 12- or 24-word recovery seed, displayed only on the device screen—never on your computer. Write this down and store it offline securely.
6. Set Your PIN
Next, you’ll choose a PIN code. You’ll need to enter this PIN every time you connect your Trezor. It acts as a first line of defense against unauthorized access.
Optional: Enable Passphrase Protection
For additional security, you can enable passphrase protection—a feature that creates a “hidden” wallet. This adds an extra layer of encryption, perfect for advanced users.
