How it works

Trezor Bridge runs locally on your machine and listens for requests from supported wallet apps. When you connect your Trezor hardware wallet via USB, Bridge establishes a secure, authenticated session so wallets can request public keys and transaction signatures. The hardware wallet prompts you to confirm sensitive actions on-device — a critical layer of protection that ensures a secure wallet connection and prevents remote tampering.
