Description

Due to concerns about the security of Android's clipboard, keepass2android uses a keyboard to input passwords and usernames. This works quite well (even better than the clipboard in my opinion). It would be great to see it implemented here!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the app’s current clipboard-based password input and the Android integration needed for a keyboard; define secure username and password entry behavior before implementation. Done means users can enter both credentials through a keyboard without relying on the clipboard.
