A secure communication layer that connects your Trezor® hardware wallet to desktop browsers while keeping your private keys offline.
Trezor Bridge is a lightweight software component that allows your web browser to communicate safely with a connected Trezor® hardware wallet. It acts as a trusted link without exposing sensitive information.
Modern browsers limit direct access to USB devices for security reasons. Trezor Bridge solves this by creating a controlled channel that ensures verified communication between the browser and the hardware wallet.
Once installed, Trezor Bridge runs quietly in the background. When a supported website or application requests access, the Bridge forwards only approved commands to the Trezor device for confirmation.
Trezor Bridge never stores private keys or recovery phrases. All cryptographic operations happen exclusively on the Trezor hardware wallet, not on your computer.
While Trezor Suite is a full-featured desktop application, Trezor Bridge is designed specifically for browser-based interactions. Both serve different purposes and may be required depending on how you access your wallet.
Trezor Bridge is ideal for users who interact with supported web interfaces, whereas Trezor Suite offers an all-in-one environment for asset management.
Trezor Bridge is compatible with major desktop operating systems and works with commonly used browsers. Installation ensures reliable device detection and smooth wallet interaction.
