by Firefox user 14169441, 7 years agoIt might be useful to let people know somehow that if you're using OneDrive (and likely a few of the other 'cloud' options as well), you have to create a sharable link before the database file will be recognized... I spent HOURS trying to figure out how to get the file to be detected... but everything I've found is always about Google Drive...
Well here, hopefully someone will see this!
The app itself is clunky but gets the job done. Its not very pleasing to look at when interacting with it either... But oh well, again it gets the job done. It gives zero feedback to if anything is working in terms of linking a database file... You just tick a slider, it'll ask for your permission, and then..... nothing.... you have no way to know if it worked. No error if it doesn't, and no 'success!' when it works. You just gotta click up there on that tiny icon and wonder 'is it working?'.
Well, if you don't see your database file instantly up there, then no, its not working. So go check to make sure you have a shareable link with full permissions on it.... otherwise it apparently will never show up...

posted 7 years agoHello! Thanks for the review, particularly the complaint about feedback after authorization.
For anyone reading, the part about needing to to create a sharable link is mostly incorrect. You shouldn't need to do anything for tusk to recognize your keepass database other than name it ending with .kdbx
However, the collective experience is that the OneDrive API is very unreliable, to the point that I am considering removing support for OneDrive. Here's what happened:
Tusk: Hey OneDrive, do you have any files with with the extension kdbx?
OneDrive: Nope!
* you shuffled some options around, inadvertently causing OneDrive to discover the file. It should have worked the first time.*
Tusk: Hey OneDrive, how about now?
OneDrive: Yes! Here they are.
I'll make a note of this, since apparently creating a sharable link causes stale indexes to get updated or something like that. Thanks again.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Tyrand, a month agoIt works as a fully embedded .kdbx manager with cloud storage.
But it doesn't support my OTPs among other things - Rated 5 out of 5by 远离中共邪教快退出党团队, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by WildernessFamily, 2 years agoThank you to the developer. I switched from another Password Manager to AuthPass. AuthPass is compatible with KeePass so this extension works with AuthPass! Thank you for taking the time to create this extensions. It's easy to setup and works! Thank you!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Adam Reece, 3 years agoLooked promising, but found that it doesn't support Argon2 key transformation, so unfortunately useless to me.
- Rated 4 out of 5by p, 3 years agonot a complete solution because it cannot add new entry to database.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14703913, 3 years agoIt does its job, but I have had a major issue with logging in to my database often:
I need to disable and reenable OneDrive in the settings to be able to log in sometimes. - Rated 1 out of 5by TRR, 3 years agoI didn't realise when I installed but this hasn't been updated in 3 years. I assume that means it's discontinued but there isn't any indication here or on their website. Not comfortable using abandoned security software.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Georges_Paul, 4 years agoCannot keep a local Keepass file synchronized?! Insta-useless.
Reply to reply: Keeweb does this just fine. Communicates with a desktop app over socket (I'm guessing).Developer response
posted 8 months agoThis is a limitation of all browser extensions, not just Tusk. Browsers do not allow extensions to read directly from a user's filesystem. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16931407, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by mao, 4 years agoil top ottimo autofill, speriamo in una implementazione con il lettore di impronte del mac
- Rated 3 out of 5by Hnk, 4 years agoLooks promising. However, nextcloud/owncloud support implies unsecure save of user/password.

- Rated 2 out of 5by TigerDave, 5 years agoJan 2021 Update: Switched to Bitwarden. Works like a charm.
Original review: Was (and still is) working great for my 5 existing PCs, but when I try to install it on any new PCs or VMs, I am unable to connect to and use pCloud.
Error = "Invalid Client ID".
Plus the Add-On now appears to be abandoned. Too bad. It was awesome.Developer response

Glad you're enjoying Bitwarden, I use it too! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15927421, 5 years agoThis was working fine and I would give it 4 stars (there's some improvements that are needed), but now it crashes the browser. Plus it's no longer maintained.
