Description

What version of Keepass2Android are you using?
Please follow these steps to find your app version:

  1. Click the icon in the top right corner
  2. Select Settings
  3. Click About
  4. Find the "Version" information and provide it here: 1.12-r5

Compare: https://keepass.info/help/base/fieldrefs.html

Is there anything special I need to consider when referencing the title of another record if it contains special characters such as spaces or a pipe? This does not yet work for me with such fields. Do I have to mask the pipe with a "\"?

Thank you

Research direction

Start by reproducing the field-reference case in Keepass2Android 1.12-r5 using a referenced title containing spaces or a pipe, then compare the behavior with the Keepass field reference documentation. The issue does not name a file or test; completion would require identifying the correct escaping or reference behavior and documenting or fixing it.
