PasswdSafe Sync – Access files stored in cloud services

[App] PasswdSafe Sync

PasswdSafe Sync  PasswdSafe Sync is a PasswdSafe companion app to access files stored in cloud services.

Password files are synchronized with Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, and ownCloud.

Start by uploading .psafe3 files to your account using the service’s native app or website. PasswdSafeSync should then sync the files to your phone or tablet.

In Box, the files should be placed in the top folder or any folder tagged with ‘passwdsafe’ so it shows in a search result.

In Dropbox, individual files can be chosen to synchronize.

In Google Drive, files can be located anywhere.

In OneDrive, individual files can be chosen to synchronize.

In ownCloud, individual files can be chosen to synchronize.

PasswdSafe Sync user reviews :

Samsung S8, Love PasswdSafe app,. PasswdSafe Sync app syncs password changes well with DropBox and recently OneDrive accounts. Unable to get any syncing to work with Google Drive,l. No log errors. Can use Google Drive App to navigate to and open the password file /Apps/Passwd Safe Sync/jfn.psafe3 using Passwd Safe App. No issues with saving, changes visible on Google Drv. But Passwd Safe Sync does not detect nor sync jfn.psafe3 changes with the corresponding files in DropBox and OneDrive.

Moto G8 Plus running Android 9. Sync from Google Drive. Log says sync was successful. Safe on mobile not updated.

can you make it possible to be able to use 2 different onedrive accounts, currently only one onedrive account can be associated

If the sync breaks, which happened many times since I’ve been using it, there’s no way to export the password database to any local folder, because it’s stored in a folder inaccessible to user. The only way to fix is usually to update. Once updated, the app isn’t smart enough to access the same file in secure location. The only copy that can be accessed is the cloud sync copy. If you made any changes or entries before you noticed that the Sync broke for the Nth time, you’ll lose all of them.

Excellent password safe, with strong encryption if you use a long passphrase, and code available for independent verification. This companion Sync app has network access to sync with e.g. DropBox etc, but does not have the key — so it can backup your encrypted password file(s) for you, but cannot see the passwords, so it also cannot steal or give them away. The main PasswdSafe app knows the key but has no Android network access permissions — so it can access your passwords for you, but cannot steal them or give them away.

I used this so I could edit my password safe files stored in OneDrive. Not sure what changed but now I can only view them. Pointless app if I can’t edit since I can use the native OneDrive app to sync the files to my device. Back to having to use my computer to edit password safe files. I’ve uninstalled/reinstalled, cleared app data and cache, nothing brought back the ability to edit the synced files through password safe app.

After using this app successfully for many years syncing to Google Drive, it has stopped working. I have tried many times to rectify without success. I’m not sure how to fix. Any guidance you have is most appreciated.

Jeff Harris, you are on to me. I have been syncing with the cloud for some time now, I want to say over a year I open my file from the cloud, and it makes a local copy. Sort of hokey but it works. Glad to see this improvement. Thanks!

Great app. Use it on tablet, pc and phone.

Love this app, Does exactly what I need it to do! One great addition would be integration for One Drive for business and Okta SAML authentication.
