What is Trezor Bridge?

The Communication Link for Your Trezor

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight background service that enables secure communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and web browsers. It acts as a bridge, allowing web applications like Trezor Suite and other supported services to interact with your device safely.
