Some highlights of the app:

Ratings and reviews

The app works well for the most part, expect when updating the database from another source. Even after closing old database and opening new database it will use old cached passwords. If one is not careful they can quickly get locked out of their account due to too many login attempts. There is a button on one menu to refresh the internal cache but from a workflow perspective it is better to delete the app and reinstall when changing databases to avoid confusion about what is actually in use.

It has worked well for a while now, but recently I encountered a bug. A changed password didn't save properly. The entry showed the old password, but fortunately searching for the entry returned two results: the old and new passwords. I had to delete the entry and create a new one with the recovered password.

Good so far - only been a few days. Have it on my phone and tablet to replace another manager that didn't seem to get on with OneDrive on the new phone. Once I got my head round some of the settings this does what I want. It would be nice if the TOTP could be vanished as I don't use it and it's just more screen clutter, and if the UN & PW notifications could be set to stay up after copying - sometimes it takes more than one go to get into a site.

What’s new

Don't add the e-mail template to new databases to avoid further discussion regarding Google Play policies.
