Getting started in Suite
1) Connect and check firmware
Launch Suite, connect your Trezor device by USB, and follow the on‑screen steps. If firmware updates are available, read the notes and update with your recovery seed safely stored offline. Never enter your seed phrase on your computer; you only confirm actions on the device.
2) Initialize or recover a wallet
For a new device, create a wallet on the Trezor and write down the generated seed phrase by hand—no photos, no cloud backups. To recover, use the device’s secure input flow. Suite will reflect the resulting accounts after the device confirms.
3) Add accounts & coins
From the accounts panel, enable supported networks and add accounts as needed. Label accounts for clarity and keep personal notes synced locally or with your encrypted choice if available.
Tips for clean setup
- Use a strong computer login and keep the OS updated.
- Validate you’re on

before downloads and support.
- Consider the optional passphrase for an extra security layer.
Security hygiene snapshot
- Air‑gapped backups: store the seed phrase physically, in duplicate, in separate locations.
- Phishing resistance: the device screen is your source of truth for addresses and amounts.
- Privacy: rotate receive addresses and use coin control for granular spends.
Daily operations
Receive flow
Click Receive, generate a fresh address, and always verify it on the Trezor screen before sharing. Suite can display QR codes for convenience; verification prevents clipboard or UI tampering.
Send flow
Paste the destination address, select a fee (economy, normal, fast, or custom), choose inputs via coin control if needed, and sign. Confirm the amount and address on your device—if the screens disagree, cancel immediately.
Portfolio & labels
Use labels to mark accounts, transactions, or UTXOs, making reconciliation easier. Portfolio view summarizes balances and recent activity across networks, helping you spot anomalies at a glance.
Advanced features you’ll appreciate
- Replace‑By‑Fee (RBF): Bump a transaction’s fee if confirmation is slow.
- Locktime & custom fees: Fine‑tune behavior for specific strategies.
- Tor routing: Route traffic through Tor for network‑level privacy.
When things go wrong
If a transaction looks stuck, check mempool conditions and consider RBF. For address confusion, rely on the hardware screen, not the computer display. When in doubt, re‑verify on device and consult official support via trezor.io.
