Learn how to securely set up your Trezor hardware wallet, install Trezor Suite, and protect your cryptocurrency assets with our step-by-step guide.
Get StartedSetting up your Trezor hardware wallet is a straightforward process that ensures maximum security for your cryptocurrencies. Follow these steps to get started:
The recovery seed is the most critical component of your Trezor setup. This 12 to 24-word phrase is your backup in case your device is lost, stolen, or damaged. Store it securely offline and never share it with anyone.
Trezor hardware wallets are physical devices that securely store your cryptocurrency private keys offline, protecting them from online threats.
The Trezor Wallet interface allows you to manage your cryptocurrencies securely. Trezor Login provides passwordless authentication for web services.
Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web application for managing your Trezor device, offering an intuitive interface and advanced features.
Trezor Suite is available as a web application or desktop download. The desktop version offers enhanced security and functionality.
Trezor Bridge is a communication tool that allows your Trezor device to connect securely with supported browsers. It's automatically installed when needed or can be downloaded manually from the Trezor website.
Trezor Wallet (wallet.trezor.io) is the legacy web interface, while Trezor Suite (suite.trezor.io) is the modern, feature-rich application that replaces it. Trezor Suite offers better security, more cryptocurrencies, and advanced features like coin control and labeling.
Trezor Bridge facilitates communication between your Trezor device and web browsers. It's usually installed automatically when needed, but you can download it manually if you encounter connection issues.
Trezor Login is a passwordless authentication method that uses your Trezor device to verify your identity on supported websites. Instead of passwords, it uses cryptographic proof from your hardware wallet.
While there isn't a dedicated Trezor Suite mobile app yet, you can access some Trezor functionality through compatible third-party wallets or the Trezor Wallet interface on mobile browsers.
If you lose your Trezor device but have your recovery seed, you can restore your wallet on a new Trezor device or compatible wallet. Your recovery seed is your backup - never lose it and keep it secure.
