Search function enchantments for Dropbox Passwords

[Nohl WP L.]

When you look for a password, it would help if you could use multiple search terms. I manage over 100 pw's and I'm still scrolling through tons.

It would be great if the contextual password list that appears in browsers (Desktop and iOS) had a search function and/or was in alphabetical order. For some sites I have dozens of logins saved for many clients all using the same service.

At present it is in seemingly random order.

Hey @Nohl WP L. - thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!

Your idea will need some more support before we can share it with our team.

I've updated the status here to encourage more users to back you up!

Hi @Walter,

is there any way to push this request along? It is such a pain multiple times a day.

I really can't fathom why the contextual list wouldn't be alphabetised by username at the very least. Sorting surely can't be that tricky to code.

As a workaround for anyone else bothered by this, it seems that the browser's find on page (Command+F in Firefox for MacOS) is able to search the list of credentials. Not so helpful on iOS but better than nothing on the desktop.

I just found out one of my old passwords was involved in a breach. I wish I could search Dropbox Passwords for all accounts that use this password so I can go change them all.

I'm in the same situation. I've been notified by a credit bureau that a old password was breached. I'd like to be able to search Dropbox for passwords so I can delete/change weak passwords that were breached.

Is there anyway to generate a list of my passwords used in dropbox?

As example, if I use XYZ1 as a portion of a password such as $D23XYZ1, I would like to search my password database for the portion XYZ1. I now use DB suggested passwords, but I still have many that were very weak and portions used repeatedly.

Thank you for your idea, while we can’t take every idea forward we do regularly re-review and will update you if anything changes!

Hello everybody.

I've start usinig Dropbox Passwords, everythnig works very well and it's smiple to use.

I have this suggestion: I would create a search box in the upper part of the container with all the passwords for a website. I have a website with 40+ accounts and when I go to filll up the data, I have to scroll until I find the right one. In my previous password manager (Lastpass) there was a comfortable search box to reach immediately the needed account, in case you have so many for the same website.

For all the rest, it works like a charm 😉
