A concise, step-by-step presentation to set up Trezor Suite and your device securely. This document uses semantic headings (H1–H5) so it’s easy to convert into slides or a printed handout.

Overview

Trezor Suite is the official app for managing your Trezor hardware wallet. It provides tools to send, receive, track, and secure cryptocurrency portfolios while keeping your private keys on the device. The Suite runs as a desktop app or in-browser web app; both provide the same core security model—your keys never leave the hardware device.

Download & Install

1) Visit the official Trezor Suite page to download the desktop app or run the web app. Always download from the official domain and verify certificates if your environment requires it.

2) If you use mobile, consider the official Trezor companion app / tracking app from verified app stores. Avoid third-party clients unless explicitly recommended by Trezor documentation.

Tip: prefer the desktop installer for full feature parity. Web app is convenient, but desktop provides consistent offline behaviour.

Initial Setup — Step by step

Step 1 — Plug in and install firmware

When first connecting a Trezor device, Suite will guide you through firmware installation if required. Follow on-screen prompts and never accept prompts from unknown sites.

Step 2 — Create a new wallet

Use Suite to initialize a new wallet. Record the recovery seed physically on the provided card — never store the full seed as plain text on any networked device. Suite enforces a guided seed backup flow; follow it completely.

Step 3 — Confirm device authenticity

During setup, Suite and the device perform checks to ensure the hardware is genuine. Confirm the device prompts match Suite’s instructions before continuing.

Using Trezor Suite & Security Best Practices

- Always ensure you are on the official domain when downloading or linking to Suite. - Keep firmware and Suite updated to receive security patches and new features. - Use a strong login/password for any local computer user account; the hardware wallet protects keys, but an insecure host can still expose metadata.

Advanced tips (H5)

Consider using a passphrase (hidden 25th word) for an additional layer. Understand passphrases: they act like a separate wallet and must be recorded carefully — losing the passphrase means losing access to that wallet.

Troubleshooting & Support

If you run into issues, start with the official support guides and troubleshooting steps: connection problems, firmware update issues, or wallet discovery errors are common and documented with step-by-step fixes.

If a support article asks for logs or diagnostics, only share what is explicitly necessary and never send seed words or private keys to support.
