Experience smooth, encrypted communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your browser. Secure, verified, and easy to use.
Trezor Bridge is the official software layer that connects your Trezor hardware wallet with your computer. It acts as a secure communication channel between your browser or desktop app and the wallet, ensuring that no unauthorized access occurs during transactions.
Without the Bridge, your computer cannot recognize the hardware wallet directly. It functions much like a secure translator that allows your browser and wallet to speak the same encrypted language, protecting your private keys at every step.
Developed and maintained by SatoshiLabs, the creators of Trezor, the Bridge software undergoes regular security audits and updates to stay aligned with the latest operating systems and security protocols.
Installing Trezor Bridge is the safest way to interact with your hardware wallet from modern web browsers. Unlike browser extensions or outdated plug-ins, the Bridge is a lightweight background process that minimizes security vulnerabilities.
Once installed, it automatically detects your connected Trezor device, allowing you to manage your cryptocurrencies, verify addresses, and confirm transactions with confidence. The Bridge eliminates communication barriers, offering a seamless experience across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Whether you’re sending Bitcoin, managing tokens, or verifying firmware, Bridge ensures that your operations remain secure and private on your own device.
1. Visit the official Trezor website: https://trezor.io/bridge. Always verify the URL to avoid phishing attempts.
2. Download the Bridge version that matches your operating system. The installer is digitally signed for authenticity.
3. Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions. Once installed, the Bridge will run automatically in the background.
4. Connect your Trezor device using the original USB cable. The software will instantly recognize it and sync with your Trezor Suite or supported wallet interface.
5. You’re now ready to access your assets securely. No extra extensions or drivers are required.
The newest release of Trezor Bridge introduces performance optimizations, better error handling, and improved compatibility with modern browsers. Some highlights include:
These updates help you maintain a secure environment with minimal manual maintenance, allowing users to focus solely on managing digital assets confidently.
If your device isn’t recognized, ensure that:
Restarting your computer often resolves detection issues. You can also reinstall Bridge to refresh configurations. Always download directly from the official Trezor website to maintain security integrity.
Always verify you’re using official sources. Do not install Bridge or firmware from third-party websites. Keep your system updated and avoid connecting your wallet to public or shared computers.
The Trezor Bridge does not store your private keys or wallet data. Its purpose is purely to facilitate encrypted communication. All sensitive data remains isolated within your hardware wallet’s secure chip.
By following these practices, you ensure that your cryptocurrency operations remain as secure as possible against digital threats.
Once the Bridge is installed, open Trezor Suite — the official desktop wallet management software. The Suite automatically detects your Bridge installation and device, establishing a direct, secure link.
This connection enables complete portfolio management, transaction signing, and firmware updates — all within an encrypted, authenticated interface that preserves your security end-to-end.
With Bridge and Suite working together, you can confidently interact with blockchain networks without exposing your device to external risks.
Trezor occasionally releases new Bridge versions to improve stability and add compatibility with system updates. It’s important to update regularly to ensure optimal performance and security.
Check for updates within the Trezor Suite or visit the official Trezor website. The update process is simple — just download and reinstall. Your previous configuration and wallet access remain intact.
By maintaining the latest Bridge version, you protect your wallet from potential communication flaws or deprecated protocols.
