Trezor Bridge® — Connect Your Trezor to Web Browsers

🔗 What Is Trezor Bridge®?

Trezor Bridge® is the essential communication tool that connects your Trezor hardware wallet with your web browser. It acts as the secure gateway that allows your computer to recognize your device and lets you access your Trezor Wallet or other crypto interfaces online. Without it, your browser won’t detect your Trezor — meaning you can’t send, receive, or manage digital assets safely.

Think of it as the encrypted handshake between your hardware wallet and the online world, ensuring every interaction remains protected from external threats.

⚙️ Why You Need Trezor Bridge

Whether you’re using Google Chrome, Brave, Firefox, or Edge, Trezor Bridge ensures your wallet communicates seamlessly with your chosen browser.

• Browser Compatibility: It connects your Trezor to browsers without additional extensions.
• Enhanced Security: All communication occurs via a local, encrypted channel — not the open web.
• Fast Performance: Lightweight software that runs silently in the background.
• Auto-Detection: Instantly detects your Trezor device when plugged in.
• Universal Use: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.

🧭 Step-by-Step Setup Guide

Step 1 — Download Trezor Bridge

Visit the official site: https://trezor.io/bridge/ and download the correct version for your operating system.

Step 2 — Install and Launch

Open the installer, follow the prompts, and allow it to run in the background. Once installed, restart your browser to enable proper communication.

Step 3 — Connect Your Trezor

Plug your Trezor hardware wallet into your computer via USB. You’ll see a secure connection message on your browser once the Bridge recognizes it.

Step 4 — Open Trezor Suite or Web Wallet

Launch Trezor Suite or visit the Trezor Web Wallet. Your wallet will automatically connect through Bridge, allowing you to view your crypto portfolio, send, and receive assets securely.

💡 Troubleshooting Common Issues

1. Browser Not Detecting Trezor

Ensure Bridge is installed and running in the background. Try restarting your browser or reconnecting the device.

2. Bridge Not Launching Automatically

Go to your task manager and verify if "trezord" is active. If not, reinstall Bridge and reboot your computer.

Use a different USB port or cable. Avoid USB hubs, as they may cause unstable communication.

• ✅ No dependency on browser store approvals
• ✅ Reduced risk of data interception
• ✅ Consistent performance across updates
• ✅ Simplified maintenance and automatic updates
