Trezor Suite — Official Desktop & Web Crypto Management

Short summary: Trezor Suite is the official app for managing Trezor hardware wallets — providing secure desktop and web access to send/receive, buy/sell, swap, stake, and track crypto while keeping private keys on your device.

1. What is Trezor Suite?

Trezor Suite is the official software interface created to integrate with Trezor hardware wallets. It functions both as a downloadable desktop application and as a browser-accessible web app. The Suite consolidates portfolio tracking, transaction history, coin management, and advanced security features into one user-focused interface. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

1.1 Core capabilities

The Suite enables secure sending and receiving of crypto, on-device transaction signing, coin swapping and trading integrations, staking (where supported), and a clear portfolio overview. The desktop app is recommended for an optimal experience but the web app supports quick browser access using WebUSB for compatible browsers. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Why use the desktop app?

While the web version is convenient, the desktop app reduces browser-related surface area and provides a smoother connection. Official guidance encourages the desktop install for best compatibility and security. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

2. Security model (short)

Trezor’s security centers on keeping private keys exclusively on the hardware device. Trezor Suite is a user interface only — sensitive operations (like signing) occur on the hardware. This separation minimizes exposure to malware and phishing attacks on the host computer. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

3. UX & workflow — quick walkthrough

3.1 Setup

Download and install the desktop Suite or open the web Suite, connect your Trezor device, follow the guided setup (including device initialization or recovery with mnemonic), and create a secure PIN. The "Get started" flow on Trezor’s site walks users step-by-step. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

3.2 Daily use

Open Suite → connect device → view portfolio → prepare a transaction in Suite → confirm details on the Trezor device screen → sign. For browser sessions, WebUSB may be used to allow the web app to talk to the device. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

4. Integration & developer resources

For power users and integrators, Trezor provides public documentation and code resources for the Suite, APIs, and developer guides. This facilitates third-party wallet integrations and helps security researchers audit behavior. The docs are maintained on the Trezor documentation site. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
