Official Trezor Suite — Desktop & Web App for Hardware Wallets

Trezor Suite

🔐 Trezor Suite – Complete Guide

Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web application used to securely manage cryptocurrencies with a Trezor hardware wallet. Developed by SatoshiLabs, it provides a private, user-friendly interface for sending, receiving, buying, and managing digital assets.

It works seamlessly with both Trezor Model One and Trezor Model T.


🖥️ What Is Trezor Suite?

Trezor Suite is the control center for your Trezor device. While the hardware wallet stores your private keys offline, Trezor Suite acts as the interface where you:

  • View balances
  • Send and receive crypto
  • Manage multiple accounts
  • Install firmware updates
  • Enable advanced privacy features
  • Track portfolio performance

Your private keys never leave the device — all transactions must be confirmed physically on your Trezor.


💻 Desktop vs Web Version

Trezor Suite is available in two formats:

  • Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • More secure against phishing attacks
  • Runs locally on your computer

2️⃣ Web Version

  • Accessible via supported browsers
  • Requires device connection
  • Slightly more exposed to phishing risks

For maximum security, the desktop app is strongly recommended.


🚀 How to Install Trezor Suite

  1. Visit the official Trezor website.
  2. Download Trezor Suite for your operating system.
  3. Install the application.
  4. Connect your Trezor device via USB.
  5. Follow on-screen setup instructions.

New devices will prompt firmware installation before use.
