Getting started (quick walkthrough)
- Unbox your Trezor device and confirm seal/integrity.
- Go to trezor.io/start and follow the instructions to open Trezor Suite.
- Connect the device, install firmware if prompted, and create a new wallet or choose restore from seed.
- Write down the recovery seed on the provided card—store it offline and never share it.
- Set a PIN on the device and optionally add a passphrase for extra security.
These steps keep your private keys offline while allowing you to use web-based interfaces securely.
Troubleshooting trezor.io/start® login & connection issues
Although trezor.io/start® is designed to be straightforward, a few common problems can occur. Here’s how to resolve them:
- trezor.io/start® Login not working / Unable to connect: Ensure your browser supports WebUSB/WebHID (Chrome or Edge recommended), check the USB cable and port, and confirm device firmware is up to date via the Suite prompt.
- Error connecting trezor.io/start® account: Close other wallet/browser extensions (they can conflict), reboot the browser, and reconnect the device. Try an alternate USB cable or port if the device isn't detected.
- trezor.io/start® App not working: Use the desktop Trezor Suite (recommended) if the web app misbehaves; reinstall Suite or clear browser cache for the web version.
- Can't verify trezor.io/start® wallet / error decline: A declined transaction usually means the signature was rejected on the device or insufficient firmware/firmware mismatch — check the on-device display and confirm transaction details before approving.
Account recovery, 2FA and security notes
Trezor devices are non-custodial — recovery and authentication are wallet-side. That means:
- trezor.io/start® Account Recovery: Recover only by entering your original seed phrase into Trezor Suite or compatible wallet. Trezor support cannot recover lost seeds.
- trezor.io/start® 2FA reset: Trezor hardware uses a PIN and optionally a passphrase. There is no centralized 2FA tied to trezor.io/start® to reset — restoring your device with the seed re-establishes access.
- Always store seed phrases offline, use genuine hardware, and verify official URLs before connecting your device.
