Yeah, it’s not an uncommon use case to accidentally or even intentionally edit the database on two online devices - I do it all the time when I want a new login to be used on my laptop right after I signed up for some new website on my PC, and the laptop just happens to have an “unpushed” change from last evening, or I edit the new login’s metadata, or whatever.
With this, I’d have to keep a mental model of the versioning of each database and avoid even touching my phone like the plague if KeePass is open on my computer.
It’s not that big of a deal, it’ll probably be a problem once every few months, but it’s annoying to keep track of and worth talking about.
Hmm, I'll have to play around with it a bit more then to see if I can trigger it.
My only gripe is the browser autofill. Sometimes it triggers correctly and sometimes it doesn't. I've noticed if I let KeePass add in a new login itself after I've manually entered it then it's much more receptive to suggesting that login correctly going forward. So I'm tempted to create a brand new database and login everything manually so KeePass will create the database entries itself to fix my gripe.
