It allows me to point to my KeePassDatabase.kdbx file in Google Drive via the "open from" menu. But taping on it, or long pressing on it, doesn't do anything at all on my Nexus 4 Android 501. I end up downloading it from Drive and pointing to it locally.

My ultimate goal is to utilize the "save to URL, and synchronize with URL" features in KeePass Password Safe on Windows 7. Then point KeePassDroid to that URL every time I open it.

This also allows someone else to easily copy your master key... Not a good idea, IMHO.

You may be able to copy my database file but not my master key. Especially since it's not written anywhere and I don't ever copy/paste it.

I am dealing with the same issue. I can't even get KeePasssDroid to open a kdbx file that is downloaded locally on my Nexus 7 (2012 w/ cellular antenna). This is true in both 4.4.4 and 5.0.2

Here's what i have now and it works like a champ. KeePass2Android on the Nexus 4 & KeePass Google Sync plugin on the desktop allows synching with a database stored on Google Drive.
