Trezor Bridge: Simplifying Hardware Wallet Connections

​
Introduction to Trezor Bridge

Managing digital assets with a hardware wallet often involves using compatible computer applications. For these applications to communicate with the physical device, an appropriate connection service may be required. Trezor Bridge is designed to provide this communication support for compatible Trezor hardware wallets. The service operates in the background and helps supported wallet interfaces recognize and communicate with connected devices. It can make the connection process more convenient for users who manage their cryptocurrency through supported software. Trezor Bridge is a supporting communication tool. It does not function as an independent wallet or store cryptocurrency.
