The Official Trezor™ Bridge is an essential desktop and web communication tool designed to connect your Trezor hardware wallet securely with supported web browsers and applications. Acting as a trusted middleware, Trezor Bridge enables seamless interaction between your device and the Trezor ecosystem, ensuring smooth transactions, secure account management, and uninterrupted access to your digital assets.
Whether you are managing cryptocurrencies, signing transactions, or accessing advanced Web3 applications, Trezor™ Bridge provides a stable, reliable, and privacy-focused connection layer that keeps your private keys safe inside your hardware wallet at all times.
Trezor™ Bridge is a lightweight background service that allows your web browser or desktop wallet applications to communicate with your Trezor hardware wallet. Modern browsers have restricted certain low-level USB communications, making a trusted bridge application necessary. This is where Trezor Bridge plays a crucial role.
Once installed, Trezor Bridge runs silently in the background, detecting your connected Trezor device and facilitating encrypted communication between the wallet and supported platforms such as Trezor Suite and third-party wallet interfaces.
Hardware wallets are designed to keep private keys offline, and Trezor™ Bridge ensures this principle remains intact. Instead of exposing sensitive data to browsers or operating systems, the Bridge securely forwards commands and responses without compromising security.
Trezor™ Bridge establishes an encrypted communication channel between your hardware wallet and supported applications. All cryptographic operations are performed directly on the device, ensuring that private keys never leave the secure environment of your Trezor wallet.
The Bridge is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux systems. This cross-platform support allows users to enjoy the same secure experience regardless of their operating system.
Trezor™ Bridge works seamlessly with popular browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, as well as with the official Trezor Suite desktop and web applications.
Once installed, the Bridge automatically detects when your Trezor hardware wallet is connected, removing the need for manual configuration and ensuring a user-friendly experience.
When you connect your Trezor device to your computer, Trezor™ Bridge listens for requests from supported wallet interfaces. These requests may include account information, transaction signing prompts, or authentication confirmations.
The Bridge securely forwards these requests to the hardware wallet, where you verify and approve them on the device screen. The signed response is then sent back to the application through the Bridge, all without exposing sensitive data.
Important: Trezor™ Bridge never stores private keys, recovery seeds, or PINs. All sensitive actions must be confirmed physically on your Trezor device.
Official Trezor™ Bridge is designed to support a wide range of systems to ensure accessibility for users around the world.
In the past, browser extensions were commonly used to connect hardware wallets to web applications. However, due to security limitations and changing browser policies, extensions are no longer the most reliable solution.
Trezor™ Bridge replaces these extensions with a dedicated background service that offers better stability, enhanced security, and long-term compatibility with modern browsers.
Trezor Suite is the official management interface for Trezor hardware wallets. When used together, Trezor™ Bridge ensures smooth communication between your device and Trezor Suite, enabling features such as portfolio tracking, transaction history, and advanced security settings.
This integration allows users to manage cryptocurrencies, update firmware, and verify addresses with confidence and ease.
Beyond the official ecosystem, Trezor™ Bridge supports secure connections with many third-party wallets and decentralized applications. This makes it an ideal choice for users engaging with DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, and other Web3 services.
Each transaction or authentication request must be physically approved on the Trezor device, adding an extra layer of protection against unauthorized actions.
To maximize safety while using Trezor™ Bridge, always ensure that you are using the official software and accessing legitimate wallet interfaces. Keep your operating system and browser up to date and never share your recovery seed with anyone.
