Trezor Bridge — Connect Your Trezor Securely

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight background service that enables secure communication between your Trezor device and supported web browsers. Unlike browser extensions, Bridge runs as a native application on your computer, providing a more secure and reliable connection.

When you connect your Trezor hardware wallet to manage cryptocurrencies through web interfaces like Trezor Suite Web, Trezor Bridge facilitates the data transfer between your device and the browser. It translates the USB protocol used by Trezor devices into a format that web applications can understand, all while maintaining the highest security standards.

One of the key advantages of Trezor Bridge is its cross-platform compatibility. It works seamlessly on Windows, macOS, and Linux systems, ensuring that all Trezor users can access their devices regardless of their operating system. The installation process is straightforward, and once installed, Bridge runs automatically whenever you connect your Trezor device.

Security is paramount in the design of Trezor Bridge. The application creates a local HTTP server that only communicates with open tabs from trusted domains, preventing potential phishing attacks. All communication is encrypted, and private keys never leave your Trezor device, maintaining the fundamental security principle of hardware wallets.

For developers, Trezor Bridge provides a standardized API that simplifies integration with web applications. This has led to broader support across various cryptocurrency services and wallets, making it easier for Trezor users to interact with their favorite platforms without compromising security.

If you encounter connection issues with your Trezor device, updating or reinstalling Trezor Bridge often resolves these problems. The service is regularly updated to support new features and maintain compatibility with the latest browser versions and security standards.
