Do you SYNCHRONIZE keepass kdbx files between Windows & Android?
Do you SYNCHRONIZE keepass kdbx files between Windows & Android?
It seems there are two completely different tasks inside KEEPASS: 1. Synchronization (this does not work the way I thought it worked) 2. Import (this seems to replace the entire file, I think) I'm still formalizing my strategy for keeping my personal data off the net, where passwords are good since Keepass works on all platforms. Mainly (but not always), I edit on the desktop (using a keyboard), but _sometimes_ I find myself, on the road, adding a password on the phone. Up until now, I've been using "IMPORT" where the general use model was: a. Edit the "master" passwd file on the Windows desktop b. Import that "master" desktop passwd file en masse into Android But recently, I added a passwd on the mobile device, and then had to get that back into the desktop master passwd kdbx database. But when I tried to synchronize the mobile device kdbx into the Wineows, desktop, the desktop Keepass didn't take anything from the phone. o How do you successfully import & merge & overwrite multiple keepass.kdbx files between Windows & Android? https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.mobile.android/y7CWoAunIOY So how do we best synchronize data that was added on the phone? Notice there is a SYNCHRONIZE command on the Windows KeePass: o KeePass Password Safe, Windows 10, version 2.39.1) https://sourceforge.net/projects/keepass/files/KeePass%202.x/2.39.1/KeePass-2.39.1-Setup.exe/download But there is not a synchronize command I can find on the Android Keepass. o Keepass2Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=keepass2android.keepass2android Given that oddity, I think this will be my MAIN use model, moving forward: a. Add/change password on the "master" desktop kdbx b. On Android - IMPORT that "master" desktop kdbx Once in a while, this will be my SECONDARY use model, moving forward: a. Continue to add/change passwds on the "master" desktop kdbx b. Once in a while, add/change passwds on the "mobile" kdbx c. On the desktop, SYNCHRONIZE the "mobile" kdbx with the "master" kdbx The main caveat to that synchronize step is that I have to ensure that the DATE STAMP on the mobile kdbx is at a LATER date than the date stamp of the "master" kdbx, which I can do with a simple "touch" command process on the desktop. Seems silly to have to change the date stamp - but the synchronize on the desktop did not work until I changed the date stamp on the mobile kdbx. Anyone else experience this problem with the Windows SYNCHRONIZE command when they added a password on the mobile device but when they ALSO had added passwds on the Windows device such that the Windows datestamp was NEWER than the Android datestamp? |
