Trezor Suite — Secure Crypto Management

What Is Trezor Suite?

Trezor Suite is the official companion application for Trezor hardware wallets (such as Trezor One and Model T). Using this software, you can securely interact with your cryptocurrencies, manage accounts, swap assets, and monitor your portfolio — all while keeping your private keys safely inside the hardware device.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need a Trezor hardware wallet to use Trezor Suite?

Yes. Trezor Suite is a companion app — all critical operations (signing transactions, private key access) happen through the hardware wallet. Without the device you cannot perform send, stake, or swap functions. :contentReference[oaicite:18]{index=18}

Which cryptocurrencies are supported?

Trezor Suite supports many major blockchains (e.g. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Cardano, Solana) and numerous tokens (ERC‑20, etc.). The supported list is regularly expanded. :contentReference[oaicite:19]{index=19}

Is it safe to swap or buy crypto through Suite?

Yes, because even during swaps or buys, your private keys remain in the hardware device and are never exposed. Transactions must still be confirmed physically on the device. :contentReference[oaicite:20]{index=20}

What if I lose my Trezor device?

You can restore your wallet and access your funds on a new Trezor or compatible hardware using your recovery seed phrase (or via Shamir shares if used). Be sure the seed is kept safe and offline. :contentReference[oaicite:21]{index=21}

What is Discreet Mode?

Discreet Mode hides balance amounts and perhaps transaction details in the UI, protecting sensitive data from onlookers. :contentReference[oaicite:22]{index=22}

What does Tor integration do?

Tor integration routes Suite’s traffic through the Tor network, helping mask your IP address and enhancing privacy. :contentReference[oaicite:23]{index=23}

How does Shamir Backup work?

Shamir Backup (available on Model T) allows you to split your recovery seed into multiple “shares” such that only some subset (e.g. 2 of 3) is needed to recover. This prevents a single share being compromised. :contentReference[oaicite:24]{index=24}

Can I use Suite on multiple computers?

Yes. You can install Trezor Suite on multiple machines. Each will connect to your Trezor device when performing operations. :contentReference[oaicite:25]{index=25}

Is the code open source and auditable?

Yes. Trezor Suite is open source. Its code is publicly viewable, and the community can audit, suggest improvements, and help ensure security. :contentReference[oaicite:26]{index=26}

Why should I always update Trezor Suite and firmware?

Updates include security patches, new coin support, bug fixes, and improvements. Running old versions may expose you to known vulnerabilities. :contentReference[oaicite:27]{index=27}
