Can't save my kbdx file on Google Drive

[Andrew]

I use Google Drive as repository to share my kbdx files across multiple devices. If I modify them using a Pc-Windows based no problem, BUT when I go to change them from my Android phone and try to save, it returns me "Failed to store database", it seems like not have permissions to write on G Drive...

Any ideas?

Thx

I received a google drive update tonight and I'm now able to save my database. I have the file set as available offline and I access it from a Drive shortcut directly to the file.

The version on my Samsung Galaxy S5 is 2.3.631.16.35

The version on my Nexus 5x is 2.3.631.16.40

It's interesting that you just posted this a few days ago because I think the permission problem has been there for non google drive file types for about a year now, but it's working now.

Is there any other information regarding this matter. I can not update database using android.

I put together this video on setting up KeePassDroid to have the db on Google Drive. It shows how open the file from Drive to allow editing. If you kdbx is already on Google Drive, just look at the section on creating the shortcut to the file on the Home screen.

I have the same problem with OneDrive. I can read the database but when I try to save changes I get the failed to save error message.
Any help for this?

This is one of the best apps for KeePass databases on Android and has an awesome interface, but I did have problems with it opening my KeePass databases from my OneDrive storage.

I'm using V2.0.6.4 and whenever I browse to my OneDrive storage and try to open my database, I get the error "Database format not recognised". So my work-around is to open ES FileExplorer, navigate to my OneDrive storage, select the file and choose KeePassDroid to open the database and that works- but with it's own issues. The database is cached to the SDCard and opened as READ-ONLY.

Frustrated, I installed another similar app and it was able to open the file directly from its interface from my OneDrive storage and I was able to save the file back without issues. The interface on this app is no where as good as KeePassDroid, but it works and this is what counts for such an app.
