Frequently Asked Questions
Is Trezor Suite free to use?
Yes, Trezor Suite is completely free to download and use. There are no subscription fees or hidden costs for using the application to manage your Trezor® device.
Can I use Trezor Suite without a Trezor® hardware wallet?
No, Trezor Suite is specifically designed to work with Trezor® hardware wallets. It requires a connected device to access most features and functionality.
What's the difference between the desktop app and web version of Trezor Suite?
The desktop application provides enhanced security as it doesn't rely on a web browser, which could be compromised by extensions. The web version offers convenience but with slightly reduced security against browser-based attacks.
Can I use multiple Trezor® devices with one Trezor Suite installation?
Yes, you can manage multiple Trezor® devices through the same Trezor Suite application. Each device will maintain its separate accounts and settings.
Is my portfolio data stored on Trezor's servers?
No, your portfolio data is stored locally on your device. Trezor Suite uses public blockchain information to display your balances and transaction history but doesn't store your personal data on external servers.
What happens if Trezor Suite stops working or gets discontinued?
Your cryptocurrencies are stored on the blockchain, not in the application. You could access your funds using other compatible wallets like Electrum or through the Trezor® device recovery process with your seed phrase.
