How do I get started with Trezor Suite?

Download Trezor Suite (desktop or web), plug in your Trezor device, follow the setup flow to install firmware, set a PIN, and create your recovery seed.

What is a recovery seed and why is it important?

A recovery seed is a list of words (typically 24) that allows you to restore your wallet if your device is lost or damaged. Store it offline and never share it.

Does Trezor Suite support biometric unlock and MEV protection?

Yes — Trezor Suite supports biometric unlock on compatible OSs and includes MEV protection for major EVM chains to reduce front-running and slippage.

Security & convenience — what to enable

Recovery seed (backup)

Your recovery seed is the single most important backup. Write it down on paper or a metal backup and keep it offline — never store the seed digitally or share it with anyone.

Official guidance: follow on-device and Suite prompts when creating and confirming your seed. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

PIN protection

Set a device PIN to prevent unauthorized physical access. The PIN protects access to the device UI and actions that must be confirmed on-device.

Biometric unlock (optional)

For faster access, Trezor Suite supports biometric unlock on compatible OSs (Touch ID, Face ID, Windows Hello). This protects the app view while your private keys remain on the hardware device. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

MEV protection for EVM chains

Trezor Suite routes transactions for supported EVM chains via private relays to reduce front-running, sandwich attacks, and slippage — recommended for swaps and high-value transfers. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Supported coins

Trezor supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, many ERC-20 tokens and a wide range of coins and networks — check the live supported list inside Suite or on the official site before moving funds. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Best practices — keep your crypto safe

Buy only from authorized retailers — avoid tampered devices.
Verify firmware & device prompts during setup.
Store your recovery seed offline (paper or metal) and split it if necessary for inheritance planning.
Use passphrase protection for an extra layer of security (advanced users).
Confirm receive addresses on the device screen — not just the Suite display.
