Detailed Setup: How to get started (Trezor.io/start walkthrough)
        Trezor.io/start provides an end-to-end secure setup walkthrough to get started with your Trezor device. First, always verify you are at the correct Trezor.io/start domain and that downloads come from official sources. Next, connect the device and follow prompts to initialize. When the device displays your recovery seed, write down each word exactly and confirm the seed within the device flow. Setting a PIN is required to get started — choose a PIN you can remember but that is resistant to guessing. If you want stronger protection, enable a passphrase through Trezor.io/start guidance to create hidden wallets. Lastly, verify firmware via Trezor.io/start recommended processes to ensure your device runs official firmware and you started on a secure base.
        Verify software & downloads
        To get started safely, Trezor.io/start shows how to verify checksums and signatures. Downloads should only come from the official Trezor domain referenced at Trezor.io/start. Avoid third-party mirrors or installers that are not listed on Trezor.io/start to reduce the risk of tampered software.
        Seed best practices
        Trezor.io/start stresses: do not photograph your seed, do not store it digitally, and do not enter it into websites. The seed is the single most critical piece to get started safely — Trezor.io/start includes recommendations for multiple offline copies and secure geographic distribution to preserve access even after local disasters.
      
      
        Features & Daily Use — after you get started
        Once you get started with your Trezor device via Trezor.io/start, the device and apps provide a range of features to manage crypto. Use the on-device signing flow to approve transactions, use passphrases for hidden wallets to segregate funds, check balances in Trezor Suite and compatible web apps, and use portfolio views for oversight. Trezor.io/start also explains how to reconnect, add additional accounts, and manage multiple cryptocurrencies after you get started. The core principle Trezor.io/start reinforces is that private keys remain on your device — the software and web apps only get signed data after you approve on-device.
        Daily tips
        
          - Connect your device and verify recipient addresses on the Trezor screen before confirming.
- Use a small test transaction to new addresses or services to ensure flows work after you get started.
- Keep device firmware and the host app updated using Trezor.io/start recommended update paths.
- Store at least two offline backups of your recovery seed in secure, separate locations.
- Use passphrases for greater privacy and plausible deniability when you get started with advanced protection.
Security & Recovery — what to do after you get started
        Security does not end when you get started. After following Trezor.io/start, adopt durable backup strategies such as metal seed plates, secure safes, or safety deposit boxes. Periodically test your recovery process by restoring to a secondary device in a safe environment. If you manage funds for others, document an inheritance or emergency process that respects security but preserves access. Trezor.io/start encourages users to separate hot wallets (for daily spending) and cold Trezor-backed wallets for long-term holdings after you get started, reducing exposure for high-value assets.
