Android: Kdbx files can only opened with Google Drive-PDF-Viewer which is wrong!
Why can I open Keepass *.kdbx files only with Google Drive-PDF-Viewer?? It is no PDF. Why does the dropbox app does not let me choose a different App to open the file with? Why not use the android de...
I have stored my KeePass password file (.kdbx) in Dropbox, but cannot anymore open it with KeePassDroid. My setup has worked flawlessly for several years, but this week I noticed that Dropbox tries to open the file with "Drive PDF Viewer". I have not done any changes to settings, in Dropbox -> Settings -> Manage default apps there are no default apps set, and if I choose "Open with..." for this file, the PDF viewer is the only application I can select.
I'm using Android, Dropbox version 190.2.2.
Hi,
I'm having trouble opening .kdbx (KeePass) files from Dropbox on an Android phone. I was originally using the KeePassDroid app, and switched to KeePassDX to try to resolve the issue, but have since found the problem occurs with that one too.
The way it manifests is that I open Dropbox on my phone and tap my .kbdx file and expect it to open in the KeePass app. The file downloads, the screen goes blank momentarily, and then I am returned to the file list.
I can work around it by using the "..." icon to open the menu on the .kdbx file, toggle the "Make available offline" off, then do it again and toggle it back on. Then when I tap the .kdbx file, a dialog pops up to ask which app to use to open it. I select KeePassDroid or KeePassDX and tap "always", and the file opens in the app as expected. If I close it and try again, it works a second time. However, if I try again another day, it fails to open and I have to apply the workaround again.
I did on one occasion see a "toast" message when trying to open the file - something about it not being a valid PDF file I think...?
