A few days ago, my Trezor, which I bought in 2015, broke down. I have already ordered a new one and it will arrive in a week. But there is one thing that worries me right now. I used my Trezor as a two-factor authentication key, and at first I was worried that I would not be able to restore it exactly this function, but they explained to me about this and it turned out that I was worried in vain.

I was almost completely calmed down, but now I remembered that in addition to this, I used my Trezor as a password manager. A part of the passwords were duplicated in my notepad, but now when I tried to go to some of my sites, it turned out that I did not have passwords for them in my notepad. Passwords for them were only on my Trezor.

In this regard, i have a question  - will the passwords that I saved on it be restored or not ? Or is there no way that this feature can be restored on a new device via a seed phrase? I would be grateful for your answer.

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Those passwords aren't saved ON your trezor... They're saved on dropbox or drive, but they're encrypted with keys derived from your seed phrase.
So, if you have a new trezor, you still have your seed and you still have access to the dropbox or drive where those encrypted passwords are saved, you should be able to restore them.

To expand on what mocacinno said, their official site says the following about the password feature:
Quote
Lost? Restore.
Use your recovery seed of 24 words to regain access to your passwords, encrypted on Dropbox or Google Drive.
https://trezor.io/passwords/

You can read more about how and where the passwords are stored, and how to transfer them elsewhere here > https://wiki.trezor.io/User_manual:Password_Manager#Migrate_the_passwords_to_another_service

I'm so damn glad to hear that. It means that I should be fine, because I still have access to the Dropbox and the folder inside it.

I just have to wait a few days for my new Trezor to arrive and restore it using a seed phrase.

Thanks for the information.
