What is Trezor Bridge?
Trezor Bridge is the essential software that enables secure, direct communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your web browser. Unlike browser plugins or extensions, Bridge runs quietly in the background, providing an encrypted channel that ensures your private keys never leave your device. With Trezor Bridge, you can access Trezor Suite and compatible third-party wallets from Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and more—on any operating system.
Why use Trezor Bridge? Security and privacy are at the heart of crypto. Bridge ensures that all sensitive actions—like signing transactions—are performed inside your hardware wallet, never exposing your secrets to your computer or the internet. Whether you’re sending, receiving, swapping, or staking crypto, Bridge is the invisible force making it all possible.
How does it work? After installation, Bridge runs as a lightweight service. When you connect your Trezor and open Trezor Suite or a supported wallet, Bridge automatically establishes a secure connection. All communication is encrypted, and your device is detected instantly. Updates are seamless, so you’re always protected against new threats and compatible with the latest browsers and coins.
Privacy and control: Trezor Bridge is open source and does not track your activity or share your data. You remain in control of your crypto journey. Advanced users can connect to their own nodes or use Tor for maximum privacy.
Getting started: Download Bridge for your OS, install, and connect your Trezor. Open Trezor Suite in your browser and enjoy secure, seamless access to your assets—no matter where you are.
