#52 How can I Sync Passwordsafe on my phone (android)
I have installed Passwordsafe on my laptop and I like to synchronize it with my phone. So I dowloaded and installed the app. But then what?
Is there some kind of manual? Or can somebody tell me how to proceed?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Marc

You can manually copy the file between your phone and laptop using the USB connection. For a network sync, there is a companion PasswdSafe Sync app which will synchronize the file from a Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox or Box account.
Where are the synced OneDrive files kept on an Android phone? I'm looking in a file manager trying to recover a backup and they're nowhere to be found. Android/data/com.jefftharris.passwdsafesync and Android/data/com.jefftharris.passwdsafe are both empty. The storage/emulated/0 directory has no password files either.
They are stored in an app-private directory under the com.jefftharris.passwdsafe.sync/files directory. They have generic names w/o extensions and such.
Below is a screen shot of an error I'm getting on my Android phone. Don't know how to sync again. Can you help please ?
