Description
Checks
- I have read the FAQ section, searched the open issues, and still think this is a new bug.
Describe the bug you encountered:
When I changed the kdbx file on google drive (from a windows computer) then this change is not notified in keepass2android. Neither when I directly selected the file via google drive nor via the file system selection.
I have selected to
- NO local backup
- NO database caching
- Pre-load during password
- Synchronize after Quick Unlock
After I signed in via Finger print, the app states: No changes detected
When I explicitly select "Synchronize database" then finally the change is notified.
Describe what you expected to happen:
No response
What version of Keepass2Android are you using?
1.14-r4
Which version of Android are you on?
16

Research direction
No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the Google Drive workflow using Keepass2Android 1.14-r4 on Android 16, changing the kdbx file externally and then unlocking with the stated synchronization settings. Done means the change is detected automatically after fingerprint unlock, without manually selecting “Synchronize database”.
