A SIMPLE WAY TO THINK ABOUT IT

Understanding Trezor Bridge

Trezor Bridge is a communication layer that can help a compatible Trezor hardware wallet work with software in a computer browser.

It is not a wallet or exchange. It supports the connection between your device and compatible software. The right method depends on your browser and chosen Trezor app.

Requirements can change, so use this page as a primer. Confirm current installation details in official Trezor documentation before downloading software.
