What is Trezor Bridge?
Trezor Bridge is a crucial software component that facilitates communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your web browser. It acts as a bridge, enabling secure interactions when managing your cryptocurrency assets through Trezor’s online interface.
How to Login Using Trezor Bridge
To log in using Trezor Bridge, first ensure the software is installed and running on your computer. Connect your Trezor device via USB and open the Trezor web wallet interface. The browser will detect Trezor Bridge automatically and prompt you to unlock your device by entering your PIN or passphrase on the hardware wallet itself. This two-step verification enhances security, preventing unauthorized access to your funds.
How to Logout Safely
Logging out is equally important for maintaining security. Simply disconnect your Trezor device after finishing your session, and close the browser tab running the wallet interface. This will prevent any lingering access. Additionally, some users prefer to close Trezor Bridge from their system tray or task manager to ensure it isn’t running in the background.
Additional Tips
Always keep Trezor Bridge updated to the latest version to benefit from security patches and compatibility improvements. Using Trezor Bridge on supported browsers like Chrome or Firefox guarantees smoother operation.
