Does anyone have this app? I’ve used it on my past 3 iphones to store web passwords and credit card info and now that I have a new phone I’m trying to transfer the info within the app to it. I did a backup to the icloud from my old phone, then restored my new from from that backup but while the app shows, none of my passwords are in there.

I searched and found instructions which told me to open the app in itunes and sync my device from there but when I select “devices” in itunes, the “sync” option is grayed out.

Any suggestions? I really don’t want to retype 50 passwords ☹

I use it.

Are you using Dropbox to sync? If not, use it.  
This allows seamless password syncing between my two computers, iphone and iPad.

I just linked my dropbox account on both phones and turned on sync but it didn’t do anything… Am I missing something?

If you look in your Dropbox folder, do you see a file named “Database.wallet”?
