Trezor Bridge — UX & Transaction Hygiene

Reduce accidental approvals and confirm intentions clearly

Designing clear signature flows

When using web wallets that rely on Trezor Bridge, the clarity of each requested signature matters. On-device confirmation screens are your last line of defense: ensure your web application includes clear, human-readable descriptions so users can easily reconcile what appears on their device.

Preventing accidental approvals

Many incidents occur because a user hurriedly approves a request without reading the details. A small delay and a clear instruction to inspect the device can prevent large losses. Make UX that prompts users to double-check destination addresses and amounts—these are the fields most commonly attacked by address-swap malware.

Session management and tidy workflows

Keep sessions tidy: close unused dApp connections, revoke approvals you no longer use, and perform periodic audits of connected sites. Trezor Bridge facilitates secure connections, but long-lived allowances or forgotten sessions increase exposure if a dApp is later compromised.

UX tip: show an illustrative example of a device screen in your onboarding so users recognize the exact wording they should expect to see.

Wrap-up

Trezor Bridge makes device communication robust, but thoughtful UX and transaction hygiene are what keep funds safe. Educate users to inspect devices, keep software current, and adopt small rituals—like test transfers—to validate flows before committing large sums.
