Official Trézor® Bridge® | Introducing the New Trezor®

Trézor® Bridge® is the official communication software developed by SatoshiLabs to securely connect your Trezor hardware wallet with supported browsers and desktop environments. Designed as a lightweight background service, Trezor Bridge ensures smooth, encrypted communication between your device and the Trezor web interface.

With the evolution of the Trezor ecosystem, Trezor Bridge continues to play a key role in providing stable and secure device connectivity — forming an essential part of the modern Trezor experience.

🌐 What Is Trezor® Bridge®?

Trezor Bridge is a small software component installed on your computer. Its primary function is to enable communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your browser.

It replaces older browser extension technology with a more secure and reliable standalone system.

Trezor Bridge connects:

Your Trezor hardware wallet

Your computer’s operating system

Supported browsers

Web-based wallet interfaces

Without Trezor Bridge installed, your browser may not detect your Trezor device when connected via USB.

🚀 Introducing the New Trezor® Experience

The new generation of Trezor products — including devices like the Trezor Model One and Trezor Model T — integrates seamlessly with modern applications such as Trezor Suite.

Trezor Bridge enhances this experience by:

Providing secure background communication

Eliminating outdated browser plugins

Improving compatibility across platforms

Supporting smoother firmware updates

Delivering faster device recognition

It works silently in the background while you manage your digital assets securely.

🔐 How Trezor Bridge® Works

When you connect your Trezor device:

Trezor Bridge detects the device through USB.

It establishes secure local communication.

The browser interacts with the device through Bridge.

All transaction confirmations happen directly on your hardware wallet screen.

Your private keys never leave your device — ensuring full self-custody and protection.

💻 System Compatibility

Trezor Bridge supports:

Windows

macOS

Linux

It is compatible with major browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.

Once installed, it runs automatically in the background and requires no manual operation during everyday use.

Step 3: Restart Your Browser

After installation, restart your browser to enable proper detection.

Step 4: Connect Your Device

🛡️ Security at the Core

Trezor Bridge is built with security-first architecture:

Encrypted local communication

No cloud-based key sharing

Even though Bridge enables communication, every sensitive action must still be physically confirmed on your Trezor device.
