Securely connect your Trezor hardware wallet to supported browsers and apps
Trezor Bridge is a lightweight, secure background application developed by SatoshiLabs. It acts as a communication layer between your Trezor hardware wallet and compatible browsers or desktop applications. It enables seamless interaction with your device, allowing secure transaction signing, cryptocurrency management, and integration with web-based services such as Trezor Suite Web.
Without Trezor Bridge, modern web browsers may not be able to directly communicate with your hardware wallet due to USB access restrictions. Trezor Bridge overcomes this by running a secure local service that exposes a safe API accessible only from your computer.
Bridge is essential for browser-based usage of your Trezor device. If you're using the desktop version of Trezor Suite, the Bridge is not required.
Choose the version of Trezor Bridge that matches your operating system:
Note: Always download Trezor Bridge from the official Trezor website to ensure authenticity and avoid malware.
Follow the steps below to install and start using Trezor Bridge:

Yes. It is developed and maintained by SatoshiLabs and is open-source. The app runs only on your local machine and never transmits data to external servers.
Yes, you can uninstall Bridge at any time via your operating system’s app manager. However, doing so will disable browser-based wallet interactions.
Make sure Trezor Bridge is installed and running. Also, ensure your USB cable supports data transfer and that no other apps are blocking the device.
Trezor Bridge is compatible with most modern browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Edge. Safari may have limited compatibility due to Apple’s USB policy.
WebUSB allows some direct communication with devices, but Bridge ensures the highest compatibility across systems. It is recommended for a stable experience.
