Trezor Bridge — Secure Communication Between Your Trezor and Browser

Trezor Bridge is the official communication tool that allows your Trezor hardware wallet to interact seamlessly with browsers and web-based applications. It acts as a secure connector between your computer and the Trezor device, ensuring smooth detection, safe data transfer, and reliable access to Trezor Suite or other supported crypto tools.
Without Trezor Bridge, many browsers would not be able to recognize the hardware wallet or establish a secure communication channel.

Designed with simplicity, security, and performance in mind, Trezor Bridge runs quietly in the background while providing a stable and protected link between your device and the internet environment.

What Trezor Bridge Does

✔ Enables Browser Communication

Some browsers require an additional layer of communication to interact with USB devices. Trezor Bridge provides this essential link so your Trezor wallet can be detected instantly.

✔ Ensures Secure Data Transfer

Trezor Bridge encrypts communication between your device and your browser, protecting sensitive actions such as address verification, transaction approval, and device management.

✔ Supports Trezor Suite Web

When using the browser-based version of Trezor Suite, Bridge ensures that your wallet functions properly without interruptions or detection issues.

✔ Works Quietly in the Background

Once installed, the software runs automatically and requires no manual configuration. It updates itself when necessary and maintains consistent device recognition.

Key Features of Trezor Bridge

1. Fast & Reliable Connectivity

Trezor Bridge ensures instant detection of your Trezor Model One or Model T each time you plug it into your computer. This eliminates common connection errors found with direct browser communication.

2. Secure Access Control

Only trusted applications can communicate with your device through the bridge. This prevents unauthorized programs from interacting with your hardware wallet.

3. Safety Through Hardware Verification

Even though Bridge handles communication, all sensitive approvals—like sending crypto—must still be verified physically on your Trezor screen. This ensures complete protection against phishing or remote attacks.

4. Cross-Platform Support

Trezor Bridge works on major operating systems, offering stable interaction with most browsers that don’t support native USB features.
