Description

Something I've noticed missing from other nextcloud password manager mobile applications is the ability to share passwords with other nextcloud users. This is something that can be easily done through the web interface. So at the moment, if I need someone who uses only/mainly mobile to share a password with me, they end up having to screenshot the password and use Talk to send it. This is obviously not properly secure, since the screenshot is saved to the device. For devices with google services installed, it ends up meaning that the password is actually shared with google, which is really unacceptable.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing the mobile app's password viewing and sharing flow, then compare it with the existing Nextcloud web-interface capability. Done means users can securely share a password with another Nextcloud user without relying on screenshots or exposing it through device backups.
