Trezor Bridge® | Introducing the New Trezor App | Trezor™

Secure, smooth, and seamless — Trezor Bridge is your gateway to managing your crypto with the new Trezor App. Learn how it works, why it matters, and how to get started in minutes.

🔍 What Is Trezor Bridge®?

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight communication tool that connects your Trezor hardware wallet to your computer’s web browser and apps. It acts as the secure "bridge" between your device and the Trezor App (Trezor Suite).

When you plug in your Trezor device, Bridge ensures it talks safely and efficiently with your browser and applications — without relying on third-party plugins or extensions.

It replaces outdated solutions like browser add-ons (e.g., Chrome extensions), offering a more secure and future-proof setup.

🌐 Why Use Trezor Bridge?

Using Bridge gives you a direct and encrypted path between your device and your computer — no middlemen, no risks. Here's why it matters:

• ✅ Security: All communication is local and encrypted

• 🛠 Compatibility: Works across browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Brave)
• 🔄 Updates Automatically: Always up-to-date with latest features
• 🔐 Native Integration: Works hand-in-hand with Trezor Suite

🧭 Getting Started: Step-by-Step Guide

✅ Step 1: Download and Install Trezor Bridge

Visit the official Trezor website and download the latest version of Trezor Bridge for your operating system.

After downloading:

• Run the installer
• Follow on-screen prompts
• Restart your browser once the install completes

There’s no app window — it runs quietly in the background.

🔌 Step 2: Connect Your Trezor Device

Plug your Trezor Model One or Model T into your computer using the USB cable.

You should see a prompt in your browser or Trezor Suite asking to connect the device. Bridge facilitates this connection.

💼 Step 3: Open the Trezor App (Trezor Suite)

Launch Trezor Suite, the official desktop app or browser-based app that manages your crypto portfolio.

Bridge now allows seamless communication between your hardware wallet and the app.

• Add your favorite coins
• Send and receive crypto
• Check balances and transaction history
• Swap and trade safely
• Use privacy features like Tor and CoinJoin (for Bitcoin)

🔐 What Makes Bridge So Secure?

Security is the core of the Trezor experience. Bridge uses encrypted local communication to ensure that your private keys never leave the device and cannot be intercepted by malicious extensions or scripts.

Here’s what Trezor Bridge never does:

• ❌ Never stores private keys
• ❌ Never shares your recovery phrase
• ❌ Never accesses your funds

It simply passes commands between your Trezor and the Trezor App securely.
