The short version
A small bridge.
A big difference.
A browser can’t always speak directly to a hardware wallet. Bridge is lightweight software that helps supported browser-based apps find and communicate with your connected Trezor.
Bridge does the handoff
For supported web apps, Bridge relays communication between the browser and device.

Keep the boundary clear
Bridge connects.
Your Trezor protects.
Bridge is not a wallet, an exchange, or a place to store crypto. It does not replace the hardware device. The device is where you inspect and approve sensitive actions.

Good to know
Questions,
answered.
Is Trezor Bridge the same as Trezor Suite?
No. Trezor Suite is Trezor’s wallet application. Bridge is a separate communication helper used by certain browser-based apps. Follow Trezor’s official guidance to learn which software you need.
Does Bridge store my crypto or recovery seed?
Bridge is a connection layer, not a wallet. Your recovery seed should never be entered into Bridge, a browser, or any computer application.
Why can’t my browser see my Trezor?
Check that the cable supports data, reconnect the device, close other wallet tabs or apps, and consult current official troubleshooting guidance. Never install a fix from an unsolicited message.
Is this the official Trezor website?
No. This is an independent informational guide and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Trezor. Visit trezor.io directly for official downloads and support.
