Trezor® Bridge — Secure connectivity between your desktop and Trezor hardware wallet

About Trezor® Bridge

Trezor® Bridge is the secure connectivity layer that links your Trezor hardware wallet to desktop and web applications, delivering a seamless and trustworthy user experience for managing cryptocurrencies. Designed with privacy and clarity in mind, Bridge acts as the trusted translator between your offline keys and the online services you rely on, ensuring every interaction stays under your control. At its core, Bridge prioritizes security. It establishes an encrypted, local-only channel between your browser or desktop wallet and the Trezor device, so sensitive operations — like signing transactions or exporting public addresses — never expose private keys to the network. This architectural separation helps reduce attack surfaces and gives users strong protection against remote compromises. Usability was a guiding principle during Bridge’s design. Installation is straightforward: Bridge runs as a lightweight background service that auto-detects connected devices and presents a clear, guided workflow for common tasks. Whether you are connecting on Windows, macOS, or Linux, the service handles driver compatibility and permissions, letting you focus on managing assets rather than troubleshooting connections. Bridge is built for interoperability. It supports modern browsers and integrates with popular desktop wallets and web-based platforms, enabling broad compatibility across the crypto ecosystem. Developers benefit from a stable API and well-documented integration patterns, so third-party services can implement secure support for Trezor devices without reinventing low-level device protocols. Transparency and trust are central. Bridge is open-source and regularly audited, allowing security researchers and community members to review its codebase and contribute improvements. Frequent updates keep Bridge current with new devices, firmware releases, and evolving security best practices. Users are encouraged to keep Bridge and their device firmware up to date to benefit from the latest protections and compatibility fixes. Privacy-conscious users will appreciate Bridge’s local-first model: communications are routed over the local machine and do not require a cloud intermediary. This minimizes metadata leakage and keeps control of transaction signing within the user’s environment. Combined with the hardware-backed security of Trezor devices, Bridge helps preserve the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive cryptographic operations. Practical convenience is not sacrificed for security. Bridge offers session persistence, clear device management, and quick reconnection workflows that make routine tasks like balance checks, address generation, and multisig coordination faster and more reliable. Detailed logging and user-facing diagnostics make troubleshooting simple without exposing sensitive information. Whether you are a long-time crypto user, a developer integrating hardware wallet support, or a newcomer exploring secure custody options, Trezor® Bridge provides a dependable foundation for interacting with the decentralized web. Its blend of secure architecture, developer-focused interfaces, cross-platform support, and open-source transparency makes it a natural choice for anyone prioritizing control and clarity when managing private keys. Download Bridge from official sources, keep it updated, and pair it with a Trezor hardware wallet to maximize protection for your digital assets.
