Secure | Simple | Seamless
Trezor Bridge™ acts as a critical link between your Trezor® hardware wallet and your desktop browser. Whether you’re a new user or a seasoned crypto enthusiast, this tool ensures safe, secure, and user-friendly operations. Starting® up® your® device®™ has never been more streamlined.
Trezor Bridge™ is a lightweight software application designed to facilitate communication between your Trezor® hardware wallet and supported browsers. It works in the background, requiring minimal user interaction while enabling maximum functionality. Once installed, it allows seamless interaction with wallet interfaces like Trezor Suite®™, ensuring every action remains encrypted and private.
Modern browsers often restrict hardware connections by default. Trezor Bridge™ bypasses these limitations by serving as a secure channel. Without it, your browser might fail to detect your Trezor® device altogether, preventing you from accessing funds, sending transactions, or verifying identities.
Visit the official Trezor® website and download the latest version of Trezor Bridge™. Installation is quick and straightforward. After installing, restart your browser to ensure proper integration.
Use the provided USB cable to connect your device. Your operating system may prompt for permission. Always allow access to ensure Bridge functionality.
Launch Trezor Suite® from your browser. If Trezor Bridge™ is running, your device will be instantly recognized. You’ll be prompted to enter your PIN, passphrase (if enabled), and verify identity as needed.
Once inside Trezor Suite®, you can manage assets, check balances, send or receive cryptocurrencies, and even stake certain tokens directly from the interface. All actions remain secure and transparent, thanks to Bridge™ integration.
Always use the latest version of Trezor Bridge™. This ensures bug fixes, enhanced speed, and the latest security protocols.
Never download Trezor Bridge™ from third-party websites. Use only trezor.io to avoid malware or phishing risks.
Passphrase protection is an advanced feature that adds an extra layer of encryption to your wallets. Combine it with Bridge™ for maximum security.

No, but it's required for the browser to communicate with your device. Once connected, Trezor Suite® handles transactions directly with your confirmation.
It works with most modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Microsoft Edge. Safari is not currently supported due to hardware limitations.
You’ll see a confirmation in your system tray or task manager. Also, if your device is detected in Trezor Suite®, Bridge™ is running correctly.
Yes. Like most of Trezor’s ecosystem, Bridge™ is open source and regularly audited for security by the community and Trezor engineers.
In some cases, using Trezor Suite® desktop app bypasses the need for Bridge™, but for browser-based access, Bridge™ is essential.
