For now, the app is available on the Google Play Store as an ‘Invite-Only’ app, currently in beta version. Yet, it claims to provide almost all basic features necessary for a good password manager.
Briefly, users can use the app to store their passwords, and can also access the passwords by syncing all devices. Moreover, the app also offers ‘zero-knowledge encryption’ to keep the passwords secured from hacking attacks.
Besides, the Dropbox Passwords app also allows a one-click sign-in to the websites and apps. Hence, saving them from the hassle of entering details. While it is unclear as to how this feature will exactly work, AndroidPolice hints a probable use of the Android’s autofill feature.
Users can take a look at the app by clicking this link.
However, now when LHN checked the app, this label no more exists. But the app still bears an invite-only limitation.
Though users may see a clickable ‘Install’ button with the app, it doesn’t really work for general users. Anyone downloading the app without an invite will face a denial of use, indicating the app is still in beta.
Perhaps, Dropbox may make a formal announcement after including all the necessary tweaks as advised by the beta-testers. Until then, users shall have to patiently wait for the public launch.
Nonetheless, they can still use the other password managers already available in the market to protect their accounts.
