Trezor Bridge® | The New Trezor App
Trezor Bridge (version 22.9.3) ensures effortless communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and browser for secure cryptocurrency transactions and management.
Trezor Bridge: Seamless Communication Between Your Device and Browser
Trezor Bridge is a vital component in ensuring smooth communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your computer. Designed to simplify the process of connecting your wallet with supported browsers, Trezor Bridge enhances both security and usability, offering a streamlined experience for managing cryptocurrencies.
What is Trezor Bridge?
Trezor Bridge acts as an intermediary software that enables your Trezor hardware wallet to interact with your browser without relying on browser extensions. This software runs in the background, creating a secure connection between your Trezor device and the Trezor Suite application or web interface.
By removing the need for extensions, Trezor Bridge reduces potential security vulnerabilities and provides a more direct method of communication between your hardware wallet and your computer. This ensures that sensitive information, such as private keys, remains isolated on the Trezor device itself.
