QR Plug-in for KP2A

Philipp Crocoll (Croco Apps)

About this app

This is a plug-in app for Keepass2android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=keepass2android.keepass2android) or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=keepass2android.keepass2android_nonet).

It adds the following features to Keepass2Android:
- display passwords, usernames etc. (or the full entry) as a QR code
- scan QR codes to quickly find an entry
- scan QR codes to add the scanned text to your Keepass database.

This plug-in can be used to transfer database entries from one Android device to another, e.g. if you want to securely share credentials with a friend. Therefore, install it on both devices and then:
1.) open the entry you want to share
2.) select "Show QR Code" from the options menu (in the action bar)
3.) open the plug-in app on the other device
4.) select "Scan QR code from other device"
5.) scan the code from the display of the first device
6.) you are asked wether you want to search and open an entry or create a new one. Select "Create new entry"
7.) log in to your database if it is not already opened.
8.) select the group where you want to add the entry and click "Add entry"
9.) review the entry and select "Save"

Ratings and reviews

It doesn't work as expected on my phone. The show as QR code is great but the scan QR code is terrible. I have scanned some QR codes but nothing happens. It should show open entry or create entry option but they didn't appear. The scanning progress also run very very slow.

Great app for use with KeePass app from same developer, but appears to need to updated to work on Android 15? Would be great if this could be fixed, because this app is great for syncing passwords to my wife who has her own KeePass db.

Works well once you figure out how to enable it. You need to enable it in Keepass2android settings, and open the QR Plugin app and allow access there. Scratched my head for a while...

What’s new

app can now be installed on devices without camera as well (for displaying QR only)
