Congratulations on choosing a Trézor® device! In this guide, we'll walk you through the important first steps—starting your device, setting up Trezor® Bridge®, logging in with Trezor Login, and using the full power of Trezor Suite. Whether you're starting with Trezor Io Start or already familiar with Trezor Bridge, this walkthrough will help you confidently launch your experience.
The overall process is simple yet secure: connect your device, install the Trezor® Bridge® software on your computer, open the Trezor Suite interface, and log in. We'll cover each stage in detail below.
First, power on your Trézor® hardware device and connect it via USB to your computer. You'll see a welcome message on the screen inviting you to proceed with setup. Next:
If you’re using Trezor Io Start for the first time, be sure to close any other wallet or browser plugins that could interfere with Trezor® Bridge®. Ensure you have a modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) for best compatibility.
Once installed, open the Trezor® Bridge® application or verify it’s running in your system tray (Windows) or menu bar (macOS). Then:
Trezor Bridge was designed to replace older browser plugin solutions, improving both security and usability. It runs locally rather than in your browser, limiting exposure while ensuring seamless device interaction.
Once your device is connected via Trezor® Bridge®, it’s time to launch Trezor Suite. This is your comprehensive interface for managing cryptocurrency, security, firmware, and settings.
In Trezor Suite, you'll:
The Trezor Suite interface is clean and user‑friendly, guiding you step‑by‑step.
The application integrates advanced features—such as label organization, improved transaction tracking, portfolio summaries, and real‑time exchange rate displays—making it the central hub of your hardware wallet experience.
To access third‑party services that support hardware wallet authentication, you may use Trezor Login. With Trezor Login, you can securely authenticate to supported web services without revealing private keys or passwords.
Here’s how it works:
This method ensures your private keys never leave your Trézor hardware—but you can still securely authenticate with your favorite platforms.
- No passwords stored online
- Resistant to phishing and keylogging
- Fast, secure access across supported applications
After using Trezor Suite and optionally Trezor Login, your device is fully ready. Review settings, ensure firmware is current, and test a small crypto transaction for peace of mind.
Remember, whenever you want to manage assets or authenticate with services, repeat—connect your device; ensure Trezor® Bridge® is running; open Trezor Suite or trigger Trezor Login.
These names refer to the same software—sometimes the trademarked version (Trezor® Bridge®) appears, other times the plain version (Trezor Bridge). Both enable communication between your browser and the hardware device.
While you can perform basic tasks via Trézor.io/Start® and Trezor® Bridge®, the full experience—including transaction history, portfolio views, firmware updates, and advanced settings—requires Trezor Suite.
No. Only websites that specifically support Trezor Login can use hardware‑based authentication. Look for login options that mention Trezor or hardware wallets.
