1) Navigate manually
Type the official domain in your browser and navigate to the Suite download page. Confirm the TLS certificate details and padlock status before proceeding.
This practical, security‑first guide walks you through downloading and installing Trezor Suite the right way, verifying authenticity, and using Suite to track your crypto portfolio while keeping your hardware wallet safe. You’ll learn platform‑specific install steps, privacy and operational‑security tips, common troubleshooting fixes, and answers to frequently asked questions. Use the official trezor.io domain only and trust your device screen over anything shown on your computer.
The most effective defense against phishing is to control the path to your download. Type the official domain yourself and use a bookmark that you created. Avoid sponsored search results, link shorteners, or third‑party mirrors. When a checksum or signature is published, verify it locally before installing.
Type the official domain in your browser and navigate to the Suite download page. Confirm the TLS certificate details and padlock status before proceeding.
Pick the Windows, macOS, or Linux package. If your platform offers both .dmg/.pkg
and .exe
or distribution‑specific packages, prefer the one recommended by the vendor.
Compare published checksums with local results. On Windows use Get-FileHash
; on macOS/Linux use shasum -a 256
or sha256sum
. Proceed only on exact matches.
# macOS/Linux example
shasum -a 256 Trezor-Suite-Installer.dmg
sha256sum Trezor-Suite.AppImage
Follow the steps for your platform. If any prompt looks unusual—publisher mismatch, unsigned packages—stop and re‑download from the official site.

Packaging should be intact. If you receive a card with pre‑printed recovery words, stop and replace the device—this is a known scam.
Use the included or a known‑good USB cable. Avoid hubs during firmware updates to prevent power drops.
New wallet: Generate your recovery seed on the device and write down every word. Restore: Enter existing words on the device only—never type the seed on a computer.
Choose a non‑pattern PIN of 6–10 digits. The device wipes after too many wrong attempts, protecting your funds if stolen.
Run the authenticity check in Suite before depositing funds. Treat warnings seriously and re‑verify.
If prompted, update firmware. Keep the cable stable and read on‑device prompts carefully.
Trezor Suite aggregates balances across your accounts so you can quickly understand your holdings and transactions without exposing private keys. The portfolio view pulls data from the network and from your device’s derived addresses; funds remain on‑chain and under your control.
For each supported coin, add an account in Suite. Accounts are collections of deterministic addresses derived from your on‑device keys. Create multiple accounts for organization, such as “Savings” and “Spending.”
Click Receive → generate a new address → then verify the full address on your device screen. Use or share the address only after this verification step.
Paste the destination address, set the amount and fee, and review. Your device will show the details for approval; approve only if every character matches.
Use labeling to track transactions and accounts. Treat exported data as sensitive; store it securely if you save it for accounting.
Adjust fees for speed or savings. Where supported, use coin‑control features to manage UTXOs and reduce address reuse.
Some assets require external wallets. Suite will guide you when needed. Your keys remain on the Trezor device throughout.
Write your 12/18/24 words clearly, keep two offline copies in separate locations, and consider a metal backup for fire/water resistance. Never photograph or scan the seed.
Your device screen is isolated from malware and should be treated as the source of truth. If the address on the computer differs, cancel immediately.
Apply Suite and firmware updates promptly. Read prompts carefully and avoid interrupting updates.
Review analytics/data‑sharing settings and disable what you don’t need. Prefer fresh addresses and consider network privacy tools where appropriate.
Prefer a trusted computer and connection. Avoid public Wi‑Fi for large or sensitive transactions; if unavoidable, use a reputable VPN and double‑check on‑device prompts.
Support will never ask for your seed or PIN. Bookmark the official site you typed yourself to avoid look‑alike domains.
Try a different cable and USB port; avoid hubs. Close competing wallet apps. On Linux, confirm udev rules are installed and reload them, then replug the device.
Check your network and firewall. If using a VPN, switch servers. Clear cache in Suite settings and restart.
Reconnect the device; Suite usually resumes. Use a short, stable cable and a direct port to prevent power issues.
If the address on your device differs from the computer, cancel immediately. Update software, scan for malware, and retry only after matching exactly.
Too many wrong attempts wipe the device by design. Restore with your recovery seed on the device and re‑add accounts in Suite.
Your funds are on‑chain and controlled by your seed. Acquire a new Trezor and restore using your words on the device, then re‑index accounts in Suite.
Yes. Downloading and using Suite is free. Beware fake paid versions and any site that asks for your seed.
Secure operations require a hardware device. Some views are accessible without one, but private keys never leave the Trezor.
Suite supports Bitcoin and many altcoins. Some assets require third‑party wallets; Suite will indicate when this is necessary.
Yes. Install Suite on each trusted machine; the keys remain on the device, so funds stay secure.
Your backup is your recovery seed. Keep it offline, private, and durable; consider a metal backup for resilience.
You can reinstall later from the official site and reconnect your device. Funds are tied to your seed on‑chain, not to the app.
