Set a separate master password for the Dropbox Passwords app on iOS.
Hi, the current solution for Dropbox Password App for iOS is very unsecure as anyone that know the iPhone password can easily access to the passwords wallet. This is the case i.e. when someone has to provide its iPhone to a service center for a repair and he/she has to provide the iPhone password to the technician. Some other Apps have a master password which is different from the iPhone one, so all passwords are securely protected. I think this is a must feature, otherwise the app is very, very unsecure... p.s. this is not the case for the desktop version, which already has a master password.
Dropbox Passwords mobile app doesn't have any master password?
It is very shocking for me that Dropbox Passwords has no master password (or at least I can't find it). I do not use fingerprints on my phone, I have simple PIN. It is locking after 2 minutes, but if the pone is in hands it won't turn off the screen. So, to open another password managers it is necessary to enter master password. But for this app you just open it and the passwords are visible immediately. Is it possible to add Normal master password or at least PIN to add additional protection?
I'm not seeing my updates when opening Dropbox Passwords on my mobile/Firefox browser.
I use Dropbox Passwords, mainly on my computer (with Safari). I have installed the app on my phone and connected it some months ago but use it rarely. I noticed that the last changes made were not synchronized on the mobile ap. After trying different solution I uninstalled the app on my phone and reinstalled it. I can't understand, it is still the same: the last changes I made do not appear. I installed it on another brother (Firefox) and the problem is the same. The changes made on August 2024 (and latter) do not appear.Dropbox Password no longer syncs with my iMac.
Hello everyone, I use Dropbox and Dropbox Password for syncing my passwords. I use Dropbox Password on three devices: <> Samsung S20 phone <> Microsoft Surface Pro <> Apple iMac However, for the past few weeks, the synchronization with my iMac hasn’t been working. This means that the passwords I create on my iMac don’t show up on my Surface or my Samsung, and vice versa. However, syncing between my Surface and Samsung works perfectly. I’m using the Dropbox Password web extension on the Safari browser of my iMac. Has anyone encountered the same issue? Thanks for your help!
I can't log back into Dropbox Passwords after disconnecting all devices.
Salve, usavo l'estensione su Chrome e l'app su Android senza problemi. Però, dopo aver cambiato password ed inoltre, per sicurezza, scollegato tutti i dispositivi ed i contenuti Dropbox, adesso non riesco più ad accedere a Dropbox Passwords: sull'app Android va in errore, continuando la schermata "è in corso la verifica del tuo stato" sull'estensione Chrome mi scrive "Hai collegato 3 dispositivi o browser a Passwords". Se entro sull'app Android di Dropbox, mi dice: Dispositivi 1 / 3. Se entro sul sito web di Dropbox, nella sezione applicazioni mi appaiono "Dropbox Passwords Extension" e "Dropbox Passwords for Android" con la data di collegamento odierna. Se li scollego e riprovo, gli errori precedenti appaiono nuovamente identici e nella sezioni applicazioni tornano nuovamente le 2 applicazioni, ma in realtà non funzionano e non ho accesso. Sembra come sia andato in errore il sistema sul mio accounto e che vada ripristinato. Come si può risolvere il problema di accesso a Dropbox Passwords ?
Dropbox account seems to have been hacked, how can I proceed?
An unauthorized person hijacked our basic Dropbox account and sent an email invite to an undisclosed number of recipients. The content of the email invite may have malicious content/link to a .pdf file. We noticed the unusual behavior as the owner of the Dropbox account was overseas (unaware) and the recipients tried to contact the Dropbox owner to see if it was legit or not. We reset the password and set the 2-factor authentication. However, today a ‘Reminder’ email notification was sent out by the same account to an unknown number of recipients. Questions: How do you determine (who) the email addresses the initial invitation email was sent to and the number of recipients? We want to send an email blast to warn them not to click on the link in the invite. How do you disable the reminder email notification of the original invitation? Any other advice? Shall we delete this account? Thank you in advance for any advise or recommendations. LPJ
