New device day is always exciting! This friendly, step-by-step page helps you move from “boxed hardware” to “backed-up, verified, and confident” in minutes. We’ll cover preparing your device, installing the companion app, creating a recovery seed, and practicing safe habits so you can manage coins with calm. No jargon, no fluff—just guidance that works. ✅
Starting at the official entry point ensures you get the latest Suite installer and firmware path, reducing risk from outdated files or spoofed downloads.
The guided flow encourages strong PINs, seed creation, and wallet labeling—essentials that protect funds against common mistakes.
When the install and firmware come from the same trusted track, updates apply smoothly and support articles match your version.
Look for intact seals and a clean USB port. If anything seems off, do not proceed; contact support first.
Use your own bookmark or type the address carefully. Avoid search-ad links and never install software from unknown mirrors. A quick habit that saves headaches. 🛡️
Choose the build for your operating system, run the installer, and keep default settings. If prompted for drivers, allow them so the device can communicate properly.
Plug directly into your computer—skip cheap hubs. If the cable feels loose, use the included one for a snug fit.
New devices often ship without firmware. Follow the on-screen prompts inside Suite and confirm updates on the device itself. Keep it connected until 100% complete.
Tap the option to create a wallet on the device screen. Set a strong PIN: 6–9 digits, non-patterned. Remember, the keypad is randomized each time.
Carefully copy every word in order onto the provided cards. Double-check spelling. Do not type the seed on a computer or phone, and never photograph it. Zero screenshots. 🧽
Complete the on-device check. If a word doesn’t match, stop and correct it now—this is your lifeline if the device is ever lost or damaged.
Inside Suite, add the coin accounts you plan to use. Let the app scan the network so balances and history display correctly. Patience here keeps things precise.
Send a small amount to the new address, then back out or onward. Practice builds muscle memory—and confidence.
Never digitize your seed. Pens and paper (or a metal backup) win every time.
Practice with a tiny amount so you’re calm when it’s real money.
Updates patch issues and add features. Apply them via Suite when prompted.
Yes—choose the recover/import option in the device flow and enter the words on the device, never on your keyboard.
Your funds live on the blockchain, unlocked by your seed. Replace the device and recover using your words.
Suite needs connectivity, but the private keys never leave your hardware wallet. The device signs inside itself.
Many users separate long-term savings from spending. Labels help you track purpose without mixing funds.
