I've had quite a few people complaining about this kind of sync (looking at you Nextcloud) and switch to one of Strongbox's native providers.Īnyway, both apps are available for free to try in the App Store, so perhaps the best thing to do is give both of them a spin and see which you like best. Nextcloud, Dropbox etc) and you need to hope that they've implemented sync well. Most people accept this, but you don't have to, you can store locally (switch on Airplane mode if you like!) and manually sync via Airdrop, over your LAN, or via USB with File Sharing.Īccessing your database via iOS Files, as Andrei has mentioned, offloads the networking to the client app (e.g. Most of those options require direct network access, that's just a simple fact. So you see, Strongbox is a little more articulated when it comes to storage. On top of this, you can store your databases locally on device (stored in your documents folder or in a private (hidden from iOS Files) folder).Īdditionally, you can also access your database on an SFTP server (full r/W access with support for Private Key auth) and WebDAV (Very handy for Nextcloud at the moment!). Strongbox also supports Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive natively via their respective APIs and SDKs. Strongbox supports adding databases via the iOS Files method as ONE of many different ways you can add/sync your database. What Andrei (KeePassium developer) has said below is largely accurate. I should probably chime in here as the developer of Strongbox.
