Trezor Bridge

A secure connection layer between your Trezor hardware wallet and web applications

What Is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight communication tool that allows your Trezor hardware wallet to interact securely with supported web browsers and web-based wallet interfaces. It acts as a bridge between your physical device and online applications without exposing private keys to the internet.

Designed and maintained by SatoshiLabs, Trezor Bridge ensures a stable and secure connection for users who prefer managing their wallets directly through web interfaces rather than desktop applications.

How Trezor Bridge Works

Trezor Bridge runs in the background on your computer and listens for requests from supported web applications. When a request is made, it securely forwards it to your Trezor device for verification.

Secure Device Communication

Trezor Bridge enables encrypted communication between your browser and hardware wallet without storing any sensitive data.

Browser Compatibility

Works with major browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, ensuring wide accessibility.

Background Operation

Once installed, Trezor Bridge runs silently in the background, requiring no manual interaction.

How to Install and Use Trezor Bridge

  1. Connect your Trezor hardware wallet to your computer.
  2. Download Trezor Bridge from the official Trezor website.
  3. Install the application for your operating system.
  4. Restart your browser to activate the bridge.
  5. Visit a supported web wallet or service and connect your Trezor device.

After installation, Trezor Bridge automatically handles communication whenever your device is accessed through a compatible web interface.

Key Features of Trezor Bridge

Security Reminder: Trezor Bridge will never request your recovery seed. Any website asking for it should be considered unsafe.

Security Benefits of Trezor Bridge

Trezor Bridge is designed with a minimal attack surface. It does not expose private keys, transaction data, or recovery information. All sensitive actions must be confirmed physically on the Trezor device.

By separating device communication from the browser itself, Trezor Bridge reduces the risk of browser-based exploits and malicious extensions.

Troubleshooting Common Trezor Bridge Issues

If your Trezor device is not detected, ensure that Trezor Bridge is installed and running. Restarting your browser or computer often resolves connectivity problems.

Conflicts with browser extensions or outdated USB drivers can also affect performance. Keeping your system updated helps maintain a stable connection.

Why Use Trezor Bridge?

While Trezor Suite offers a full desktop experience, Trezor Bridge is ideal for users who prefer accessing wallets directly through web platforms. It provides flexibility without compromising security.

By combining ease of use with strong cryptographic protection, Trezor Bridge supports a seamless and secure hardware wallet experience.

Final Thoughts

Trezor Bridge plays a critical role in connecting Trezor hardware wallets to the web safely and efficiently. It maintains the core security principles of Trezor while enabling convenient browser-based access.

For users who value flexibility, privacy, and control, Trezor Bridge remains an essential component of the Trezor ecosystem.
