## Review summary

User reviews of the Dropbox Passwords Android app reveal that while the desktop version and Dropbox account integration work well, the Android app suffers from frequent crashes, poor autofill support, problematic sign-in and device authorization, and syncing inconsistencies. The app's instability and frustrating login flows often lead to loss of access to passwords. However, users appreciate its seamless integration with Dropbox, easy navigation, and inclusion of 2FA code support. Overall, the app is considered immature and buggy for Android, and many users recommend alternative password managers until improvements are made.

### Pros

- Integrates well with Dropbox accounts, allowing users already using Dropbox to access passwords within the ecosystem.
- Provides 2FA codes and easy navigation, simplifying password management once logged in.
- Desktop and PC versions work well, with good syncing and browser extensions.
- Allows importing passwords from other password managers without issue.
- Back up of encryption keys to physical media offers extra security.

### Cons

- Frequent app crashes, instability, and flickering, especially during biometric login, causing crashes or phone restarts.
- Poor and unreliable autofill function on Android, often not recognizing login fields or requiring manual copy-paste.
- Difficult or impossible device authorization/sign-in process, especially when switching devices, leading to account resets and data loss if recovery keys are lost.
- Syncing issues between Android and desktop versions, leading to inconsistent password data across devices.
- Clunky interface in Android app, with slow response times, memory leaks, and forced restarts needed regularly.
