Trezor Bridge - Secure Connection for Your Hardware Wallet

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a background service that enables secure communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and supported web browsers. It acts as a facilitator for the connection, allowing you to interact with your Trezor device through web-based interfaces like the Trezor Wallet.

Unlike browser extensions, Trezor Bridge runs as a standalone application in the background, providing a more stable and secure connection to your hardware wallet.
