🔗 What is Trezor Bridge?

When you plug your Trezor device into your computer, it needs a secure way to talk to your browser or Trezor Suite. That’s where Trezor Bridge comes in.

Think of it as a translator 👨‍💻 between your hardware wallet and your browser.

💡 Why You Need It

Without Trezor Bridge, your browser won’t recognize your Trezor device.
This secure tool makes sure communication between the two is encrypted, private, and seamless.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Trezor Bridge is required for using Trezor Suite on Google Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Edge.

🛡️ Is Trezor Bridge Safe?

Absolutely. 🧩
Trezor Bridge is:

  • 🔒 Signed and verified by SatoshiLabs

It doesn’t access your data, doesn’t track you, and only works locally on your device.
