Trezor Bridge – The Secure Gateway to Your Hardware Wallet®

Trezor Bridge is the official communication tool that links your Trezor Hardware Wallet with your computer in a secure, encrypted, and privacy-first way. Acting as the core connection layer between the Trezor Suite App and your hardware wallet, it guarantees reliable data transfer, safe transaction signing, and uncompromising protection of your private keys.

When you plug in your Trezor, Bridge instantly establishes a protected channel so that no untrusted software can interfere. All sensitive operations—verifying addresses, signing messages, updating firmware—remain safely inside your hardware wallet. You can explore more on our Security Overview page.

Why You Need Trezor Bridge

As web browsers evolve, direct USB communication with hardware wallets becomes restricted for safety reasons. Trezor Bridge solves this by creating a secure, encrypted channel between your Trezor device and your desktop application. This ensures compatibility even when browsers or operating systems update their connection standards.

Bridge works seamlessly with Trezor Suite and other wallet management tools. It allows smooth interaction across Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms. Learn more about compatibility in our Compatibility Guide.

Installation & Setup

Getting started with Trezor Bridge takes just a few minutes. Visit the official download page, choose your operating system, and follow the on-screen instructions. Once installed, restart your Trezor Suite app—Bridge will automatically connect to your device.

We also provide a detailed Setup Guide for step-by-step assistance. Trezor Bridge runs quietly in the background and updates automatically, keeping your system secure without manual intervention.

Core Security Principles

End-to-End Encryption: All communications between your computer and wallet are encrypted. Only your hardware wallet holds your private keys, and they never leave the device.

Digital Signatures: Each Trezor Bridge release is cryptographically signed by SatoshiLabs. You can verify your download hash on the Verification Page to ensure authenticity.

Zero Data Collection: Bridge collects no telemetry or user data by default. It operates locally and privately, giving you complete control. Review details in our Privacy Policy.

Performance and Reliability

We’ve engineered Bridge for efficiency—lightweight installation size, minimal CPU usage, and instant device detection. It automatically starts on system boot, ready whenever you connect your Trezor wallet.

Our developers continuously test new versions for latency, speed, and compatibility. Check performance updates in our Release Notes.

Developer Integration

Trezor Bridge isn’t just for end-users. It provides a local API for developers who want to integrate Trezor connectivity into their own applications, dashboards, or services. The Developer Portal includes documentation, code samples, and SDKs for all major programming languages.

By using Bridge’s secure interface, developers can interact with the device without ever exposing private keys. The open-source model promotes trust and transparency in every interaction.

Enterprise Deployment

For organizations handling digital assets at scale, Bridge provides a stable, policy-controlled solution for connecting multiple Trezor devices across a network. IT administrators can deploy silent installations, manage version updates, and enforce permission settings. Visit our Enterprise Solutions page to learn more about multi-user management.

Transparency and Open Source

All Trezor Bridge source code is publicly available on GitHub. Transparency enables independent verification, community contributions, and ongoing audits. Every line of code can be reviewed, ensuring that no backdoors or hidden processes exist.

We also publish a public Development Roadmap outlining upcoming improvements, features, and compatibility updates. You can even contribute or suggest new ideas through our open community channels.

Support and Troubleshooting

If you ever encounter issues connecting your device, our Support Center offers 24/7 guidance, diagnostic tools, and community forums. Typical problems such as driver conflicts or permissions can be resolved within minutes using our interactive assistant.

We also maintain an active community on forums and social channels where users share insights, feedback, and setup experiences.

Why Trezor Bridge Stands Out

Conclusion

Trezor Bridge is the invisible hero that makes your crypto experience smooth, safe, and consistent.
