Trezor® Bridge® | Introducing the New Trezor®
Welcome to our official guide on Trezor® Bridge®, the secure communication layer between your Trezor hardware wallet and your preferred crypto interface. Whether you’re a long‑time user or new to Trezor, this presentation will walk you through what Bridge is, why it matters, and how it enhances your experience with the new generation of Trezor devices.
What Is Trezor® Bridge®?
Trezor Bridge® is the essential software that enables communication between your Trezor device and your computer’s browser or wallet app. It acts as a secure translator, allowing your device to interact with web applications such as Trezor Suite and other compatible wallets.
Without Bridge installed, your browser may not recognize your Trezor hardware — so Bridge unlocks a seamless connection every time you plug in your device.

✔ Supporting USB communication with current browsers
✔ Improving device detection and response speed
✔ Increasing compatibility across operating systems
✔ Enhancing privacy and encryption during interactions
This makes your hardware wallet experience smoother, safer, and more reliable.
