  • I can 2nd that SyncThing works well with KeePass. I have it running on Windows, Android, and a few Debian computers (guys, I use Linux) and I’ve never had an issue. I just checked (and apparently I’m a thug), because I’ve been using “No File Versioning” for years. You may want to opt for any of the available options to err on the side of caution. As long as you’re adamant about syncing any changes ASAP (and not modifying the database on 2 different devices simultaneously), you won’t have issues. Even when I have screwed up (by editing the DB on 2 devices), the KeePassDX client on Android has handled it gracefully and allowed me to merge the conflicts. I also always keep regular backups of my database outside of the whole SyncThing monstrosity (just for worst case scenarios). Cheers mate, give a whirl.


  • Set the battery usage of your essential apps to Unrestricted and your persistence problem is solved. Android has vastly improved its security by cutting off the workarounds shady (and legit) apps have used to persist. Some of these improvement are from GrapheneOS devs hardening the AOSP pipeline and increasing everyone’s privacy. You mention VPN apps getting neutered. I’ve never experienced Wireguard getting killed by Android and I use that app nearly continuously. I also use Syncthing all day. Setting its battery use to unrestricted keeps it working just fine. I use the app’s internal options to disable syncing when my battery tapers off. The hacky workarounds you speak of to maintain persistence on A14 should be killed off to improve everyone’s privacy.
