What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a small software application that allows your Trezor hardware wallet to communicate with your computer’s web browser or Trezor Suite. Without it, your device cannot connect properly, and you won’t be able to manage your crypto through Trezor’s web interface.

Think of it as a “translator” between your Trezor device and your computer—it handles the secure exchange of information so your private keys never leave the device.

Why You Need Trezor Bridge

  • Browsers like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge cannot directly communicate with hardware wallets because of security restrictions.
  • Trezor Bridge enables safe interaction between your Trezor and web apps while keeping your sensitive data offline.
  • It’s necessary for Trezor Suite, Trezor web wallet, and other supported crypto platforms.

How to Install Trezor Bridge

  1. Go to the official page: https://trezor.io/start
  2. Select Trezor Bridge for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
  3. Download the installer and run it.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions.
  5. Once installed, reconnect your Trezor device. Your browser should now detect it automatically.

Things to Know

  • Automatic updates: Trezor Bridge updates itself occasionally to ensure security and compatibility.
  • Browser compatibility: Works with Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and other major browsers.
  • Security: All private keys stay on the Trezor device—Bridge only facilitates communication.

In short: Trezor Bridge is essential for connecting your hardware wallet to your computer safely. Without it, Trezor Suite or web apps won’t be able to recognize your device.
