What is Trezor Bridge?
Trezor Bridge is official software that allows secure communication between your Trezor wallet and desktop or browser applications. It encrypts data and ensures that private keys never leave the device.
Without it, Trezor Suite® or compatible web apps cannot fully interact with your device, which can prevent sending and receiving crypto safely.

Step 2: Install
Run the installer and follow on-screen instructions. The process is simple and requires standard system permissions.
Step 3: Connect Device
Use the original USB cable to connect your Trezor wallet. Open Trezor Suite® or browser apps to verify the connection.
