Trezor Suite — Secure Desktop & Web App for Hardware Wallet Management

Trezor Suite is the official application designed to manage Trezor hardware wallets, combining setup, secure key storage, portfolio tracking, and transaction management in one trusted interface.

What is Trezor Suite?

Trezor Suite is the desktop and web application developed to manage Trezor hardware wallets. It offers native wallet setup, secure transaction signing via the hardware device, portfolio tracking, and an integrated interface for sending, receiving, swapping, and buying supported assets. Trezor Suite is maintained alongside the Trezor hardware ecosystem and is the recommended client for direct device management. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Key features of Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite centralizes device setup, firmware updates, and account management. Core features include secure device pairing and verification, transaction signing on the hardware device (so private keys never leave the device), integrated coin and token support for a wide range of assets, portfolio tracking, and optional fiat on/off ramps via trusted partners. These features are designed to keep cryptographic secrets offline while enabling modern usability. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Security model and best practices

The security model of Trezor Suite builds on the hardware wallet principle: private keys are stored on the Trezor device and signing happens inside the device. Trezor Suite shows transaction details for on-device verification so users confirm each action physically, reducing risk from malware and phishing. For advanced protection, Trezor supports optional passphrases which create hidden / separate wallets tied to the same recovery seed — a powerful, but high-responsibility feature that should be used with understanding. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Supported coins and integrations

Trezor Suite supports a wide and evolving list of cryptocurrencies and ERC-20 tokens. Some assets are managed natively in Suite while others use recommended third-party wallets with Trezor as the signer: the device still retains exclusive control of private keys in all cases. Always consult the official supported coins page before transferring large amounts to ensure full compatibility. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

How to get started with Trezor Suite

To begin, download Trezor Suite from the official Trezor website and follow the guided setup to initialize your device: connect the hardware wallet, install or confirm firmware, create a PIN, and record the recovery seed securely. When you pair the device with Trezor Suite, all subsequent transaction approvals occur on the hardware device itself. Use the desktop app for the most feature-complete experience or the web app for quick, cross-device access. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Advanced features: firmware, passphrases, and third-party wallets

Advanced workflows include firmware updates (signed by Trezor), using passphrase-protected wallets for added deniability/privacy, and connecting Suite to third-party wallets (e.g., for assets not yet supported natively). Follow step-by-step instructions in the official guides before using advanced features — mismanagement of passphrases or recovery seeds can cause permanent loss of access. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Practical best practices

Keep these rules in mind: never share your recovery seed or passphrase; verify receive addresses on the physical device screen; download Trezor Suite only from trezor.io; and maintain up-to-date firmware. For larger holdings, consider using multiple device backups and split-storage for recovery data. These steps drastically reduce common attack vectors. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
