🔗 What Is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a small background application that acts as a secure communication layer between your Trezor device and web‑based wallet interfaces or compatible apps. It enables browser access to your hardware wallet over USB without needing old browser plugins — improving security and compatibility across platforms like Windows, macOS, and Linux.
