How the official Trezor start flow works

1. Download Trezor Suite

Download the official Trezor Suite desktop app for the best experience, or open the web app to continue in your browser. Trezor Suite orchestrates device setup, firmware updates, and transaction management securely.

2. Install and connect

Install the desktop app if chosen, connect your Trezor device via USB (or follow Bluetooth/OTG instructions for supported devices), and allow the app to detect your hardware.

3. Secure your device

Initialize a new wallet or restore from a recovery seed. Create a strong device passphrase and write your recovery seed on a secure backup — never share it. Follow on-screen prompts to verify the seed.

4. Move and protect funds

Once setup is complete, transfer assets from exchanges or other wallets to your Trezor-managed addresses. Confirm networks and addresses carefully before sending funds.

Security best practices — official guidance

Trezor’s security model keeps private keys offline in the device. Follow these official recommendations to maintain safety: always obtain a device from authorized resellers, verify firmware signatures during updates, store your recovery seed offline (metal backup recommended), and never enter your seed on internet-connected devices.

  • Buy only from official channels or authorized resellers.
  • Verify device authenticity and firmware checksums.
  • Use a metal backup (Trezor Keep or similar) for your recovery phrase.
  • Be cautious of phishing sites; always check the domain before connecting your device.
