Trezor Bridge

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is the official communication software that connects your Trezor hardware wallet (Model T or One) to desktop applications like Trezor Suite, Electrum, or MetaMask. It replaces the outdated browser extension, offering faster, more secure, and reliable wallet interaction.

Without Bridge, your Trezor cannot talk to your computer. With it — you control your keys, not exchanges.

Install Bridge in 3 Clicks

Step-by-Step: Install Trezor Bridge (Fast & Bold)

Step 1: Download Official Bridge

Go to https://trezor.io/bridge → Click “Download for [Your OS]”. Available for:

• Windows (7, 8, 10, 11)
• macOS (10.15+)
• Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora)

Verify SHA256 hash after download — security first!

Step 2: Install the Software

Double-click the installer. Follow prompts. No admin rights needed on macOS/Linux. On Windows, allow through firewall.

Bridge runs silently in the background. Look for the Trezor icon in system tray (Windows) or menu bar (macOS).

Step 3: Connect Your Trezor

Plug in your Trezor via USB-C (Model T) or micro-USB (Model One). Enter PIN on device. Never type PIN on computer.

Bridge detects device instantly. Green light = connected.

Step 4: Open Trezor Suite

Launch Trezor Suite desktop app. It auto-detects Bridge. Click “Connect Wallet” → Select your Trezor → Done!

Step 5: Use with MetaMask (DeFi Power)

Open MetaMask → Settings → “Connect Hardware Wallet” → Choose Trezor → Bridge handles the rest. Sign transactions on device only.
