Trézór Bŕidge® | Sing In Your Crypto* in Trézór™

🔐 What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge® is a lightweight background service that allows your web browser to communicate securely with your Trezor hardware wallet. It forms the essential “bridge” between the physical Trezor device and web interfaces such as Trezor Suite.

Without Bridge, your device cannot communicate with the browser interface. It’s a must-have for secure crypto sign-in and transaction confirmation.

📦 How to Install Trezor Bridge

Go to the official site: trezor.io/bridge
Select your operating system: Windows, macOS, Linux
Download the installer and run it
Restart your browser

⚠️ Always download Bridge from the official website to avoid malware.

🧠 Why You Need Bridge to “Sing In”

“Singing in” (signing in) with a Trezor wallet involves cryptographic signing of your identity using your private keys. Bridge facilitates this by allowing the browser to securely request data from your device — without ever exposing your private keys.

Confirms wallet ownership without passwords
Enables token and transaction approvals
Authorizes access to DeFi, Web3, and exchanges

🛠️ Setting Up for the First Time

If this is your first time using a Trezor device, you’ll need to:

Connect your device via USB
Install the latest firmware
Create a new wallet or restore from your recovery phrase
Securely store your 12, 18, or 24-word recovery phrase

🔐 Never share your recovery phrase. Trezor will never ask for it online.

🔄 Signing In with Bridge Enabled

Once Bridge is installed and your Trezor is connected:

Visit a supported site (like suite.trezor.io)
Click “Connect Trezor”
Approve access from your browser
Confirm the connection on your Trezor device
You’re now securely signed in!

🌐 Using Trezor with Web3 & DeFi

Thanks to Trezor Bridge, you can now use your wallet across a wide array of decentralized platforms. Sign in to platforms like:

Uniswap
OpenSea
Aave
Compound
Metamask (via WebUSB or Bridge)

Transactions are signed on your Trezor device, meaning your keys never leave the hardware — even when interacting with DeFi apps.

🧾 Signing Transactions with Trezor

When you perform any crypto-related action (like sending BTC or swapping tokens), Bridge will prompt you to confirm and sign:

Transaction address
Transaction amount
Network fees

All details must be approved on the physical device screen, ensuring security from tampered browser UIs.

🛡️ Security Advantages of Bridge

End-to-end encrypted communication between Trezor and your browser
No need to expose private keys
Prevents phishing by verifying details on-device
Eliminates browser plugins or risky extensions

👮‍♂️ Want maximum protection? Use Bridge with Tor browser and Trezor Suite desktop app.

❓ Common Troubleshooting Tips

Bridge not detected? Try restarting your browser or checking USB cable.
Device not recognized? Update firmware and reinstall Bridge.
Conflicting apps? Close apps like Ledger Live or Metamask.

🔄 Keep Trezor Bridge Updated

Bridge gets regular updates to improve performance and support new browsers. Always stay updated to avoid compatibility issues and bugs.

📈 What's Coming Next?

Trezor is working on WebHID integration and direct support in more web3 wallets. With time, you’ll be able to sign in even faster, on more platforms, with enhanced privacy.
