Exodus + Trezor Hardware Wallet

Secure Your Crypto with Exodus + Trezor

Exodus integrates seamlessly with leading Trezor devices — including Trezor One, Trezor Model T, Trezor Safe 3, and Trezor Safe 5 — to deliver a powerful cold‑wallet experience. Unlike software wallets that keep your private keys online, the Exodus + Trezor combination keeps your keys offline in hardware. This guards against malware, remote hacks, phishing attacks, and unauthorized access.

No signup or account registration required. When you connect Trezor to Exodus, a new “Trezor portfolio” appears inside the Exodus desktop app. From there, you can send, receive, swap, and view 160+ supported cryptocurrency assets securely.

Security & Safety Practices

• Private Keys Remain Offline: With the Exodus + Trezor integration, your private keys are stored only on your Trezor device. Exodus cannot access them. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}
• Use Hidden Wallets if Needed: Hidden wallets provide added privacy through passphrases, creating separate wallets derived from your recovery phrase + passphrase. Losing the passphrase means losing access to that wallet. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
• Never Share Recovery Phrases: Exodus and Trezor never request your recovery phrase or seed. Always keep it safe, offline, and private. :contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}
• Connect Only Over Secure Computers: Since transactions are signed on hardware, using a trusted computer reduces risks. Avoid public or compromised systems.
• Review Transaction Details Carefully: Because Exodus shows your balances, but the Trezor must confirm sends/swaps, always verify addresses & amounts on the device screen.
• Asset Support Changes: Be aware that certain assets are only supported on certain Trezor models; check the Exodus status page to confirm support for your hardware. :contentReference[oaicite:16]{index=16}

Common Questions (FAQs)

Is my Exodus wallet and Trezor wallet the same?

No. Your Exodus wallet (if software‑only) has its own 12‑word recovery phrase, and your Trezor device has its separate secret recovery phrase. They are separate; you must secure both. :contentReference[oaicite:17]{index=17}

Can I send funds from my Trezor via Exodus Mobile?

No. Sending, swapping, and receiving from Trezor portfolios is only supported on desktop. On mobile, the Trezor portfolio is view‑only. :contentReference[oaicite:18]{index=18}

Which Trezor devices are supported?

Exodus supports Trezor One, Model T, Safe 3, and Safe 5. Devices running limited firmware (e.g., Bitcoin‑only firmware) may have restricted functionality. :contentReference[oaicite:19]{index=19}

Why can’t I see some assets in my Trezor portfolio?

Because not all assets supported by Exodus or Trezor hardware are yet integrated. You can check the Exodus status page for “Trezor integration” to see which assets are compatible. If an asset is listed but unsupported, Exodus may still need to implement asset‑specific support for Trezor. :contentReference[oaicite:20]{index=20}

Do I need Trezor Bridge?

Yes for certain setups: Exodus desktop prompts installing Trezor Bridge to enable communication between Exodus and Trezor device. This is needed for send, swap, and other transactions. :contentReference[oaicite:21]{index=21}
