Hey jonathan Capiral, thanks for posting here!

 

Let’s have a look; first off, I’d like to clarify that Dropbox Passwords can be added as an add-on on your web browser or installed as a mobile app on your mobile device.

 

With that in mind: 

 

  1. Regarding your first question; can you please send me more details on what you’d like to know exactly about this? Just to make sure I provide you with the correct info. 
  2. Dropbox Passwords is a feature provided by Dropbox, and the passwords you store are saved on the Dropbox cloud (I hope I understood your question right). 
  3. When storing a new password on the Dropbox Passwords add-on for example, this should also sync to your Passwords mobile app and vice-versa. 

 

Give me a ping when you’ve checked this.
