Trezor Bridge
Trezor Bridge is the software that enables communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your computer. Without it, your device cannot properly interact with the Trezor Suite application. It runs in the background, making sure every transaction and action flows seamlessly.
Setting Up Trezor Bridge
To get started, download and install Trezor Bridge on your operating system. Once installed, the program ensures your browser or desktop app can detect your wallet. After connecting your Trezor device with a USB cable, the bridge will automatically establish a secure connection.
How to Log In
When you open Trezor Suite, the bridge allows the software to recognize your device. You’ll be prompted to enter your PIN and, if enabled, your passphrase. This process acts as the login step, ensuring only the rightful owner gains access to funds and settings.
How to Log Out
After finishing tasks like sending crypto or checking balances, you should log out. Simply close Trezor Suite, disconnect your hardware wallet, and make sure the device screen turns off. This prevents any unauthorized access, especially on shared computers.
Security Practices
Trezor Bridge emphasizes safety—always verify actions directly on your device, use secure connections, and keep your recovery seed stored offline.
