Official Site® — Trezor Bridge: Getting Started

A simple and authoritative guide to Trezor Bridge and Trezor Suite — how to download, install, connect, and secure your hardware wallet connections.

Welcome to the Official Site® Guide

Last updated: • For Windows, macOS, and Linux

This Official Site® guide explains Trezor Bridge and how it has historically enabled your Trezor device to communicate with browsers and apps. Today, Trezor Bridge functionality is included in the Trezor Suite app for most users, but some advanced integrations and legacy workflows may still reference a standalone Bridge installer. Read on for safe download steps, secure installation, and troubleshooting tips to keep your crypto connection stable and secure.

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a small background helper (a native application) that allowed web-based wallet interfaces and desktop apps to talk to Trezor hardware wallets over USB. While the product evolved and Trezor Suite now bundles the connection stack, understanding Bridge helps with compatibility and legacy third-party wallets.

Important note

Official warning: Standalone Trezor Bridge has been deprecated in recent official guidance. If you are unsure, use the latest Trezor Suite from the official site for the safest, fully supported experience. Always verify downloads and follow official instructions.

1

Download from the Official Site®

Go to the official Trezor download points or Trezor Suite page. Avoid third-party or mirrored sites. Use the provided installers for your platform: Windows, macOS, or Linux.

2

Install and Verify

Run the installer, and if available, verify the PGP signature or checksums provided by the official site to ensure the binary is authentic. Use verification tools like GPG where supported.

3

Connect Your Device

Plug in your Trezor hardware wallet. Use a direct USB port rather than hubs when possible. Allow the browser or Suite to connect and approve device prompts on the Trezor screen.

4

Follow On-Screen Setup

Set a device PIN, generate or import your recovery seed, and confirm recovery words. Never share your seed; write it down offline and store it securely.

5

Maintain & Update

Keep Trezor Suite and device firmware updated. Periodically check the official site for security notices and follow best practices for backups and passphrases.

Troubleshooting Quick Tips

  • If your device is not detected, try a different USB cable or port and restart the app.
  • Uninstall outdated standalone Bridge installations if they conflict with Suite.
  • For browser-based connections, prefer the official Suite web app or the desktop Suite for stability.

Security and Verification

Security is the top priority. Only download installers from the official Trezor pages, verify signatures where available, and always confirm transaction details on the Trezor hardware screen before approving. Use strong device PINs and consider passphrase protection for advanced privacy.
