Trezor Bridge Overview

Trezor Bridge is a communication tool that allows your Trezor hardware wallet to interact securely with your computer or web browser. It acts as a bridge between your Trezor device and applications like Trezor Suite or web-based wallets, enabling smooth and secure cryptocurrency management. Without Trezor Bridge, your computer may not recognize the Trezor device properly, limiting its functionality.

How It Works

Trezor Bridge acts as a middle layer between your Trezor device and your computer or browser. When you connect your hardware wallet, the bridge translates device commands into signals your computer can understand. This allows you to:

• Access account balances
• Send and receive cryptocurrency
• Manage multiple assets
• Use third-party services safely

By keeping private keys isolated on the Trezor device, Trezor Bridge ensures that your sensitive data is never exposed to your computer or the internet.
