Download Trezor Suite View Setup Steps

Safety first: No app, website, or “support” should ever ask for your 12/24-word recovery seed. If you see such a prompt, stop—it’s a scam.

1) Download & Install Trezor Suite

Windows

Get the 64-bit installer from the official site. If SmartScreen appears, verify the publisher and proceed. Launch Suite from the Start Menu and allow auto-updates to keep features and security fresh.

Get Windows

macOS

Download the universal build (Apple Silicon & Intel). If macOS blocks the app, open System Settings → Privacy & Security to allow it, then move to Applications for convenience.

Get macOS

Linux

Use the AppImage or a distro package. Add udev rules for USB access, log out/in, and verify checksums when provided. Start Suite from your launcher.

Get Linux

Bookmark the official domain and avoid search-ad lookalikes. Installer integrity is step zero of good security.

2) Device Setup: New or Restore

A

Set Up as New

Open Trezor Suite and choose Set up new wallet. Create a strong PIN (not reused elsewhere). Confirm each action on the device screen—the device display is your source of truth.

B

Restore from Seed (if you already have one)

Select Recover wallet. Enter words on the device, never on your keyboard. After recovery, add accounts for each network (BTC, ETH, etc.) so Suite can index balances from the blockchain.

Finish by sending yourself a tiny test transaction. Verify the address and amount on your device screen before approving—practice builds confidence.

3) Backup & Recovery Seed

Your recovery seed (12/18/24 words) is the master key to your funds. Write it legibly on paper or store in a metal backup. Keep it offline, private, and protected from moisture, fire, and cameras. Do not photograph or upload it; digital copies create permanent risk.

Use two geographically separated backups if possible.
Practice a dry-run restore on a spare device before storing large value.
Consider an optional passphrase (a “25th word”) for a hidden wallet—powerful, but irrecoverable if forgotten.

4) Security Best Practices

On-Device Verification

Suite prepares transactions, but your device confirms reality. If anything differs between app and device, cancel. Only the hardware display is trusted.

Updates & USB Discipline

Update firmware and Suite via official prompts. During updates, use a direct motherboard USB port and don’t disconnect mid-process.

Rule #1: if anyone asks for your seed, it’s a scam—no exceptions.

5) What You Can Do in Trezor Suite

Portfolio & Accounts

Track multi-asset balances, label accounts (Savings, Spending, Cold), and review detailed history in one clean dashboard.

Send / Receive

Generate verified receive addresses, choose fees clearly, and approve transactions with physical confirmation on the device.

Privacy Controls

Use account separation, labeling, and optional privacy features as needed. Connect to Web3 cautiously and review every permission.

6) Quick FAQ

Is Trezor Suite free?

Yes. Network and partner fees may apply when transacting or swapping.

What if I lose the device?

Restore on a new device using your recovery seed. Protect the seed above all else.

Should I enable a passphrase?

It adds powerful protection and plausible deniability, but it’s unforgiving—forget it and that hidden wallet stays locked forever.
