Trézór Bridge | Introducing the New Trézór App®

A sleek presentation-style overview: core value, setup, security, and next steps — with colorful formatting for easy sharing.
Overview

Elevator pitch

The Trézór Bridge app modernizes how you connect hardware wallets to applications — fast, secure, and visually guided. Built for both beginners and power users, Bridge focuses on one simple promise: make your keys yours, without friction. This release introduces a refreshed onboarding, clearer device flows, and improved cross-platform reliability.

Features

What’s new

Bridge brings three headline improvements: a guided pairing wizard, encrypted session handling, and integrated app-approval screens. Each feature is designed to reduce cognitive load while raising the baseline of security and user clarity.

  • Step-by-step pairing with illustrated prompts and live device status.
  • Automatic firmware checks with optional one-click updates.
  • Session encryption and explicit app permissions for every connection.
Security

Security-first architecture

At its core, Bridge respects hardware isolation: keys never leave your device. The app acts as a minimal, well-specified host: it mediates transactions, surfaces human-readable confirmations, and logs no sensitive state. When network activity is required, Bridge uses ephemeral keys and encrypted channels, minimizing attack surface and giving you visibility into every operation.

Onboarding

First-time setup

Getting started is designed to be short and reassuring. Users will be guided through: device selection, pairing (via USB / native transport), secure PIN entry, and a short tour that highlights transaction approval screens. Clear microcopy reduces mistakes and prompts helpful, context-specific tips along the way.

Pro tools

Advanced capabilities

For advanced users, Bridge exposes verbose logs, manual transport choice, and developer hooks in a read-only mode. Developers can simulate device responses for testing; power users can set custom network timeouts or export signed payloads for offline audit.

Design

UX & accessibility

High-contrast colorways, large hit targets, and keyboard support make Bridge accessible. Illustrations include clear labels and reduced motion options. Localization-ready strings and context-aware accessibility hints ensure the app works for global audiences and assistive technologies alike.

Compatibility

Migration & compatibility

Trézór Bridge supports legacy bridge flows while encouraging upgrades to the new, more secure protocol. The app detects older setups and provides a one-click migration path, preserving device credentials and giving an in-app verification checklist to confirm everything completed correctly.

Help

Common questions

Q: Will my seed be exported? A: No — Bridge never exports seeds. Q: Is the app open-source? A: Core components and UX flows are open-source, with binaries auditable by third-party teams. Q: What if updates fail? A: Rollback safety is built into the device update process to prevent lockouts.

Next steps

Try it & give feedback

Install the latest Bridge build, pair your device, and run the pairing wizard. If you discover odd behavior, use the app’s feedback tool to submit logs (non-sensitive) and reproduction steps. The community and engineering teams will triage high-priority issues quickly.
