Getting Started with the Trezor® Suite App
1Initial Device Setup
If you're setting up a new Trezor® device, you'll first need to visit trezor.io/start from a computer to complete the initial configuration, including firmware installation, PIN setup, and recovery seed creation.
2Download the App
Download the Trezor Suite app from the Apple App Store (for iOS devices) or Google Play Store (for Android devices). Always ensure you're downloading the official app published by SatoshiLabs.
3Connect Your Device
Connect your Trezor® hardware wallet to your mobile device using a compatible USB-OTG cable (for Android) or through Bluetooth (for Trezor® Model T with iOS). The app will guide you through the connection process.
4Secure Login Process
Complete the Trezor login process by entering your PIN directly on your hardware wallet. The mobile app will display a randomized number grid for you to match on your device, ensuring security even on potentially compromised mobile devices.
5Start Managing Your Assets
Once connected and authenticated, you can view your portfolio, check transaction history, and perform transactions directly from your mobile device.
Security Note: While the mobile app is secure, for large transactions or sensitive operations, it's recommended to use the desktop version of Trezor Suite for added security.
Mobile vs Desktop: Understanding the Differences
While the Trezor Suite app provides most of the functionality of the desktop version, there are some important differences to note:
- Interface Optimization: The mobile app is specifically designed for touch interfaces and smaller screens
- Feature Parity: Most but not all desktop features are available in the mobile app
- Connection Methods: Mobile devices typically use USB-OTG or Bluetooth rather than direct USB connections
- Security Model: The security fundamentals remain identical, but the attack surface differs between mobile and desktop environments
- Performance: The mobile app is optimized for slower connections and limited processing power
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Trezor Suite app compatible with all Trezor® models?
The app supports both Trezor® One and Trezor® Model T, though connectivity options may vary. Trezor® One requires USB-OTG on Android devices, while Trezor® Model T supports Bluetooth connectivity with iOS devices.
Can I set up a new Trezor® device using only the mobile app?
For initial setup, it's recommended to use a computer and visit
trezor.io/start for the most secure setup process. The mobile app is primarily designed for managing already-configured devices.
Do I need to install Trezor Bridge for the mobile app?
No, Trezor Bridge is only required for browser communication on desktop computers. The mobile app handles device communication directly without needing additional bridge software.
Is the mobile app as secure as the desktop version?
The security fundamentals are identical—your private keys never leave your Trezor® device. However, mobile devices may have different security considerations, so it's recommended to use the desktop version for large transactions.
Can I use the mobile app without an internet connection?
You can view your portfolio and transaction history offline, but you need an internet connection to perform transactions or sync the latest blockchain data.
What should I do if the app doesn't recognize my Trezor® device?
Ensure you're using a compatible cable (for USB-OTG connections), check that your device has the latest firmware, and try restarting both your mobile device and your Trezor®. If problems persist, try using the desktop version for troubleshooting.
