(Of course, this assumes you have a cloud account.) OTOH, that’s a slower way of getting at your stored passwords. The latter can be used even if you haven’t installed the cloud provider’s android app, because it accesses the cloud directly. K2A comes in two flavors–one version that only opens a local db and another that will directly open cloud dbs, such as a KeePass db stored in gdrive or dropbox. It’s a little less convenient, though supposedly prevents the possibility of other apps snooping on the cut/paste operation without your knowledge. K2A instead copies the credentials to its own, secure keyboard, so when you open your web browser it takes a few more steps to select the keyboard and then select the username/password to paste. With KPD you open the database and select an entry, and it copies the username and password to the android notification shade, where you can then copy/paste into websites or password entry boxes in other apps. OTOH, that may be because Keepass2Android is arguably a little more secure. I’ve tried both of the others and they are quite similar, though I find KeePassDroid easier to use. (There is a crippled, “Lite” version, but why bother with crippled when the other two are free and work quite well?) I know nothing about KeepShare other than it costs money. AFAIK, there are only three real choices of android apps that are compatible with KeePass PC databases: KeePassDroid, Keepass2Android, and KeepShare. In your email Body box, select Direct Media Link to include a direct download link to your Dropbox file.I use KeePass on both PC and Android. Just make a Zap that watches Dropbox for new files, then add a Gmail action to send the message.

Say you want to email a direct link to your colleagues whenever you add a file to your project folder in Dropbox.

Share that link with your friends and colleagues and they can do the same.Īutomatically generate a Dropbox direct download link with ZapierĪnother option is to use Zapier's Dropbox integrations to automatically copy and share a direct download link to your new Dropbox files. To get a direct download link, replace the with dl., which will give you a link like: Ĭopy that link and paste it in your browser, and it should download the file directly. Or, on your desktop, right-click on the file, and select Copy Dropbox Link. Go to, find your file, and click the Copy link button that appears when you hover over it. First, you need the normal sharing link from Dropbox.
