Trézor Bridge® | Introducing the New Trézor App
Trézor Bridge® — Introducing the New Trézor App
A modern companion app that brings redesigned usability, tighter security, and smoother web integration to your Trézor hardware wallet.
Overview
The new Trézor App is built around the Trézor Bridge service that safely connects your hardware device to web browsers and web wallets. This release focuses on clarity: a refreshed interface, cleaner device onboarding, improved performance, and a set of features designed to make managing crypto safe and straightforward for everyone.
What's new in this version
A more intuitive layout, simplified flows for recovery and backup, and a themeable UI that respects light and dark preferences.
Bridge connection times have been reduced — connect and authorize your device in fewer steps, with clearer prompts for both browser and device approvals.
Granular permissions allow you to manage which web apps can see device metadata and to revoke authorizations easily from the app.
Features at a glance
- One-click updates — keep Bridge and the App up to date with minimal fuss.
- Origin whitelisting — trusted sites only; manual override for advanced users.
- Device health checks — verify firmware integrity and connected device status.
- Multi-device support — manage several Trézor devices from the same interface.
How to get started
- Download the Trézor App for your operating system from the official Trézor website.
- Install and run the app; you'll be guided through a short Bridge setup and optional background service.
- Connect your Trézor device and follow the on-screen steps to authorize browser access when prompted.
// macOS example: open the app from Applications
open /Applications/Trezor\ App.app
Security first
The Trézor App does not access or transmit your private keys. All signing and sensitive operations remain on your hardware device. Bridge acts as a local proxy — it exposes a controlled API to browsers and only responds to approved origins. We encourage users to:
- Only download installers from trezor.io.
- Verify checksums if in a high-risk environment.
- Never share recovery seeds or PINs — Trézor support will never ask for them.
For developers
Web developers can integrate with the new app using the same Trezor Connect libraries. The app exposes clearer diagnostics and a developer mode that surfaces raw connection logs and origin authorization flows to help debugging.
FAQ
- Do I still need Trézor Bridge?
- Yes — the Trézor App includes Bridge functionality. If you use browser wallets, the app helps manage Bridge and provides a friendly UI.
- Does the app run in the background?
- By default, Bridge runs as a lightweight background service to speed connections. You can disable background start and launch the app when needed.
- Is the new app compatible with older Trézor devices?
- The app supports legacy devices for common tasks; however, for the latest features and security, we recommend using devices with the most recent firmware.
