KeePass here too. On Android, it is absolutely terrible paired with Dropbox. I'm not sure who to blame, but the database will not stay up-to-date and I have to click and re-open my key file _every_time_. On a fresh install, it stays good for several months, then it will get out of sync and I'm not sure how to get it back to in sync.

Which Android port are you using? There isn't an offical one, so you may have better results trying a different one.

  Fair enough. I just noticed down below someone was using keepass2android or similar. I'm using keepassdroid, and I noticed they have an issues page. Filed one. I might investigate bitwarden if I get bored[1]. Thanks btw, it really did not occur to me actually that there would be other versions.

    FWIW I use KeePass2Android and I sync to my OneDrive. I have no issues with it on Android 9 on a Huawei device running EMUI 9

It works perfectly for me (Keepass2Android). Unfortunately Dropbox limiting syncing to 3 devices will likely make me using something else.

I always launch keepassdroid by going into Dropbox and opening the database from there, rather than by launching the app directly.

The Android (and iPhone) apps have always been more trouble than their worth, IMO. I always manage my passwords on my computers, and type in on phones as needed. Simpler and just works. To easy the pain of typing passwords, I always follow a consistent format that's easier. Example: 7,#/T8z%FS%zht6S ctaq.zwjd.qnbu.ut1A The first one is terrible to type on a little Android keyboard whereas the second is a breeze, and still perfectly respectable as far as password strength goes.
