Acting as an intermediary software component, Trezor Bridge enables the secure and efficient exchange of data between the hardware device and various online platforms. When users connect their Trezor hardware wallet to a computer, Trezor Bridge ensures that the browser can detect and interact with the device, effectively translating the hardware's commands into a language that web-based wallets can understand.
One of the primary functions of Trezor Bridge is to manage the USB communication between the Trezor device and the computer's web browser.
