# Connect the app and Bridge

Pair the Sesori app with the Bridge.

The app and Bridge pair automatically when both are signed in to the same Sesori account.

{% hint style="info" %}
Before you continue, [install the app](/setup/install-the-app.md), then [install and start the Bridge](/setup/set-up-the-bridge.md).
{% endhint %}

## 1. Start the Bridge

On the computer that holds your code, run:

```bash
sesori-bridge
```

Keep this process running while you use Sesori.

## 2. Sign in to the same account

Open Sesori and sign in with the same GitHub, Google, Apple, or email account. Using different providers or accounts creates separate Sesori identities, so the devices will not match.

## 3. Confirm the Bridge is online

When the Bridge indicator is green, Sesori can reach the computer. If it is offline, confirm that the Bridge terminal is still open and the computer is awake and connected to the internet.
