Trezor Suite® is the official desktop and web application designed to work seamlessly with your Trezor hardware wallet. It allows you to manage your crypto portfolio, send and receive assets, update firmware securely, and track transactions — all while keeping your private keys offline and safe. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Unlike hot wallets, which connect directly to the internet, Trezor Suite keeps your keys protected by requiring physical confirmation on your Trezor device for every sensitive action. Through this process, you retain full control over your funds at all times.

After initializing your wallet, you’ll be asked to set a PIN directly on the Trezor device. This protects access to the wallet interface. Optionally, advanced users may use a passphrase to create hidden wallets. Choose a passphrase carefully and keep it secret. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
Important: The passphrase is not stored by Trezor and cannot be recovered if lost.
