Trézór Bridge

What Is Trézór Bridge?

Trézór Bridge is the official companion application designed to serve as a secure bridge between your Trezor hardware device and browser-based or desktop wallet interfaces. In a landscape where browser support and extensions evolve rapidly, Bridge ensures that your device maintains seamless, private, and dependable communication.

• Acts as a local service: Bridge runs in the background locally on your machine and listens for connection requests from Trezor-enabled apps.
• Works with major browsers and apps: Supports Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and integrates with wallets like Trezor Suite, MyEtherWallet, and more.
• Cross-platform support: Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux so your environment is covered.
• Automatic updates: Bridge can auto-check and update itself for security and compatibility improvements.

Key Features & Enhancements

The new Trézór Bridge brings many enhancements over prior versions. It’s rebuilt from scratch with modern standards, making it faster, more reliable, and more secure.

• Performance Boost: Optimized code for low latency and faster device detection.
• Compatibility Mode: Removes the need for Chrome extensions or deprecated APIs.
• Resilience: Better error handling, fallback mechanisms, and improved stability under heavy load.
• Better UX for Users & Developers: Easier integration for dApp creators and cleaner UI flows for users.
• Unified Updates: Bridge updates independently of firmware, reducing risk of conflicts.

Security You Can Trust

Bridge plays a critical role in your hardware wallet’s security chain. Here’s how it upholds trust and safety:

• Hardware-First Philosophy: Private keys always remain on your Trezor device — Bridge never touches sensitive data.
• Encrypted Local Communication: Bridge uses encrypted channels internally; no external exposure of your transaction data.
• Integrity Checks: Bridge validates requests and ensures authenticity of connected apps.
• Open-Source Code: The entire Bridge is transparent and subject to community review and audits.
• Phishing Prevention: Bridge only accepts connections from trusted, signed applications or interfaces; avoid spoofed versions.
