What is Trezor Bridge®?
Trezor Bridge is a small local application that enables your browser (and desktop wallet apps) to communicate with Trezor hardware wallets over USB. It avoids exposing the device directly to web servers and manages protocol details so the user-facing apps can interact with the hardware in a secure, standardized manner.

- macOS (Intel / Apple Silicon)
- Popular Linux distributions (deb/rpm packages)
Troubleshooting
- Ensure no other wallet software is blocking USB access.

- Check logs in the Bridge UI for diagnostics.
