What is Trezor® Bridge?

Trezor® Bridge is a software that enables your Trezor® Wallet or Trezor® Hardware Wallet to communicate securely with your browser or desktop Suite. It is essential for online operations such as signing transactions, device login, and firmware verification while keeping private keys isolated on the device.

Why Trezor® Bridge is Important

  • Facilitates secure communication between hardware wallet and Trezor® Suite or web apps.
  • Prevents direct exposure of private keys to browsers.
  • Supports smooth login and transaction execution.
  • Ensures device firmware verification is safe and authentic.
