Trezor Bridge

The essential communication tool that connects your Trezor hardware wallet to your browser securely and reliably.

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a background application that enables seamless communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and supported web browsers. It replaces older browser plugins and ensures a stable, secure connection when using Trezor Suite Web or other compatible interfaces.

Why Trezor Bridge is Important

  • Enables direct device-to-browser communication
  • Improves security by eliminating outdated extensions
  • Provides automatic background operation
  • Ensures compatibility across modern browsers

Without Trezor Bridge, your browser may not properly detect your hardware wallet.

How Trezor Bridge Works

Trezor Bridge runs quietly in the background once installed. When you connect your Trezor device via USB, Bridge establishes a secure channel between your device and the browser interface. All sensitive operations still require confirmation directly on your hardware wallet.

Security Note: Trezor Bridge does not store your private keys. Your keys remain securely inside your Trezor device at all times.

Installing Trezor Bridge

Visit the official Trezor website and download the latest version of Trezor Bridge compatible with your operating system.

Step 2: Install

Run the installer and follow on-screen instructions. After installation, restart your browser to activate the connection.

Step 3: Connect Device

Plug in your Trezor hardware wallet using the USB cable. Your browser should now automatically detect your device.
