What is Trezor® Bridge?

Trezor® Bridge is a lightweight local background program that enables communication between your Trezor® hardware wallet and the Trezor Suite desktop/web app. It acts as a secure USB/HTTP bridge so your browser or Trezor Suite can detect and interact with the device without direct driver fiddling.

Download & Install — Quick Steps

  1. Visit the official start page: trezor.io/start (always verify the URL).
  2. Choose your platform (Windows, macOS, Linux) and download the Trezor® Bridge installer.
  3. Run the installer and follow on-screen prompts. On macOS you may need to allow the app in System Preferences → Security & Privacy.
  4. Open Trezor Suite (or the web suite when supported) and connect your Trezor® hardware wallet via USB.

Connecting to Trezor Suite / Trezor Suite App

After Bridge is installed, launch the Trezor Suite App. The Suite will detect your device and guide you through authentication and wallet unlocking. If Suite prompts for a firmware update, follow the official instructions carefully — firmware updates are signed and necessary for security.

Account Recovery & 2FA

Trezor® Account Recovery: If you lose access to your device, recover funds using your recovery seed on a compatible hardware wallet or supported recovery tool. Never share your seed. Trezor itself does not store your private keys or seeds.

Trezor 2FA reset: Trezor® hardware wallets don't store online 2FA; third-party services may integrate 2FA. For resets, follow the specific service’s recovery flow — Trezor® cannot reset an external service's 2FA for you.

When to Contact Trezor Help Center

If you encounter persistent Error Connecting Trezor Account, unexpected firmware prompts, or signs of tampering, contact the official Trezor Help Center for guided support. Keep logs and screenshots (but never share your seed or PIN).
