Get started quickly. Simply connect your Trezor to your device

To get started, plug your Trezor device into your computer or mobile device using the provided USB-C cable. Download and open the Trezor Suite app, which will guide you through installing the latest firmware, creating a new wallet, generating your 12-word recovery seed phrase, and setting a PIN.

Important Tips:

Verify Device: Trezor Suite will perform a security check to ensure your device is genuine and unaltered.

Physical Confirmation: Always confirm transactions by pressing the buttons on the Trezor device, not just in the app. Safe Keeping: Store your recovery seed card in a secure, offline, and physical location.

Frequently asked questions

1. Is trezor.io/start the only safe way to set up?

✅ Yes. It’s the official and safest starting point — anything else risks fake installers or phishing.

📲 2. Do I need to create an online account or log in with email?

❌ No. Trezor doesn’t use email/password accounts. Your hardware wallet itself is the authentication device.

🔐 3. Do I ever enter my recovery seed on my computer?

❌ No — only on the Trezor device screen during setup. Entering it on any website or app could expose your keys.

💾 4. What should I do with my recovery seed?

📝 Write it down offline, store securely in multiple safe locations (paper/metal), and never save it digitally or online.

📉 5. What if I lose the recovery seed?

Your wallet cannot be recovered without it — even if you still have the device. That’s why secure backups matter.

📱 6. Can I use Trezor Suite on multiple computers?

✅ Yes — install Suite on any number of machines, but the hardware is required to sign transactions.

🔄 7. What if I forgot my PIN?

You’ll need to wipe the device (data erased) and then restore using your recovery seed. Protect your seed carefully.

👾 8. What if my device already has firmware?

Older reviews or used devices sometimes come with firmware pre-installed. You can reset and continue via trezor.io/start or contact support if unsure.

💻 9. Do I always need an Internet connection?

Yes — to download Trezor Suite and firmware updates. But your private keys never leave the hardware device, and transactions are signed offline.

🤝 10. Can I use Trezor with third-party wallets?

Yes — many wallets support Trezor hardware, but Trezor Suite is the recommended official interface.
