To the developers,

if you create new data on the client ( PC or Smartphone ). actually the synchronization (after you have configured it) runs in the background independently in the interval.
Unfortunately, no data is transferred although the connection to the NAS exists and the synchronization does not show any errors.

Even if you select the Tresor explicitly and press the button " synchronize " manually, it looks like the process is running but after you synchronize the data set on the second device in the Tresor, there are no new data sets !!

Only if you disconnect the WebDAV connection on the client that created the new record and then re-establish it, data will be synchronized to the NAS and the second device will receive the new data.

Slowly it annoys extremely that the WebDAV synchronization works so badly!

Since I have bought the version, this is particularly bad for me!

Finally get the WebDAV synchronization under control!

So slowly it becomes ridiculous!

Supplement:
After the NAS has created a backup of the system in parallel, the synchronization of ENPASS ran normally in the background.
The backup of the system has now been finished for 10 minutes and the synchronization of the Enpass by new entries on the PC will also be synchronized sensibly.
I observe this again 2 days.
I then announce myself with an update

I'm not defendingnpass at all. I also have my problems with the current version.

Nevertheless, the statement of the creator here is not true!
The desktop version for Windows is still FREE. I can do with it everything what is possible.

no no ! this is not a backup from Enpass 5.
This is a backup of Enpass 6 which cannot be imported into Enpass 6 via a WebDaV update.

I also miss the option to create a complete backup of all safes via WebDAV (as it is also possible for lokaö) so that you can import this backup to another system (second smartphone or tablet).

Due to the new mobile version of Enpass 6 on 31.12.18 you could at least open the program on the iPhone without breaking the app.
But if you want to save a backup from a WebDAV server back with this version, after you deleted the data on the phone, no backup from the cloud will be recognized !!!!
The path is recognized by the app but you get the message that no data has been found in the directory!
If you download the backup from the WebDAV server to the PC and download it via iTunes to the iPhone, you cannot import the backup via the local data because the PW is not recognized !!!!!
If one has also still secured different safes, one must (how stupidly this has been programmed!!!!) each individual first on the iPhone anew create and can only then try to restore the rest of the data over the backup.
This does not succeed however, because the backup data on the WeDAV are not recognized!!!

Your shitty version 6 only pisses me off as a paying customer!

If I create different safes on the phone or the PC, then the backup file has to contain all settings and safes. I create a global backup !!

with the update from 31.12.2018 Enpass ( mobile) works again even if the WebDAV server is not reachable.
The app does not crash anymore.

As some other users already have said. They said  "ALWAYS FREE for Windows" and now you have to pay for some features (like the dark theme for example) witch is nice, but I don't pay for my Windows version! For me it's time to look for an alternative for Enpass! And th3Chris, they said it was always free and now you have to pay for extra options: NOT free at All! So stop with your nonsense to other people!!! 

 

read it right.
All previous basic features were and still are free of charge.
Only " Nice to Have " features, which are NEW but not forced on the user for the function, cost extra.
You don't need these things to use the main function of the program.
This is what so many developers do. The main program with all functions is free only " nice to have " festures kosten extra.
Nobody complains about that either.

Enpass has failed.

 

I paid for the software on BlackBerry 10.  Enpass deceived me to pay again for BlackBerry Android blaming it on different appstores, although both ecosystems as far as I was concerned was Blackberry.  Time moved on and I got over it as the power of Enpass was very convenient.

Who's idea was it to change the icon?  Icons should be bold and clear, why the weird shape of a keyhole.  Do you even realise how crap, unprofessional and SMALL it looks in the windows system tray??!! 

I rely on my desktop a lot and use the mobile apps of enpass for viewing rather than creating passwords.

 

Now the premium features in windows have been added.  Sadly, anyone who has windows 10 will know what a mess Microsoft has made on the October 2018 update.  My windows store wont even allow me to sign in and I cant afford another re-install.  All my windows is in dark theme mode, yet enpass now WANTS TO CHARGE me for a desktop app which was meant to be FREE FOREVER.  I thought by paying TWICE for the mobile app, the desktop version was never their focus for the revenue.  I guess I was wrong!

Folders were more professional in my opinion.  It let professionals 'file' passwords.  Tags are just socialising it and for me its made the software feel too gamified social type.  I dont feel so confident with these all of a sudden changes.

 

Time to look for an open source version while the proud owners of Enpass sit in India and count their revenue laughing at me.  It's okay, I'd rather be heard by a developing open source password project than become your product than you can benefit from.

" I paid for the software on BlackBerry 10.  Enpass deceived me to pay again for BlackBerry Android by pushing it to different appstores, even though both ecosystems were Blackberry to me. "

That's where the problem starts!
If you have no idea of your own system which you use, it is quite fatal to insult the manufacturer !
But there seems to be always the easier way for some.
BlackBarry OS and BlacvkBerry Android are two completely different systems !
That you have to pay here twice for the mobile version is totally ok !

How about if before you let out your frustration in Tech Forums, users start by using their own technology so they know what it's all about,

One main function of the old version I, and you and everyone who has both versions can no longer use is ... synced passwords!

The new version of enpass does not use the same database as the old version. That means that every new password created in the new version will not be synced with any old versions. This is a deliberate decision on the company part, and not something that was "needed". I happen to be a software engineer so I am familiar with how these kinds of decisions get made. 

Likely scenario: an architect decides that they want to 'simplify' things and use a 'better' database schema or whatever, product manager signs off on the change. It gets implemented. Once it finally gets to QA they realize that it doesn't work with the old db. The cheapest solution is to break compatibility with the old database. That would mean that once they upgrade the database you can never downgrade (unless you have very recent backups) without losing data. So the file extension is changed. That way only new users get the new database. Hurray!

Except it's not hurray. As they are **forcing** people to upgrade to the new version, while taking away features (see my previous posts). And for what? Better revenue stream. If they actually cared about customers, they would provide a way for the customer to upgrade on their own terms. This is about money, plain and simple. And while you may still be served by there current freemium business model, there are others of us who are not. 

Furthermore, some of us choose to hold people accountable for their actions. You treat me like a number in a spreadsheet, I will treat you and your product like a discardable commodity. 

You treat me like a valued customer (and I would think I should be since I actually paid for android and ios mobile versions) and I will happily shut up and give you my money. I'm not feeling very valued right now, just duped and deceived. Especially since I know there is NO technical reason for them to not provide a way to stick to the older versions (via legacy extensions in the chrome store), besides corporate greed.

I partly agree with you on the integration of the database.
But what is still not true is the answer to the missing function.
There is currently no function in the new version that was not also available in the old version.
Of course I can't synchronize with the old database with the new version, but a new database container was created.
Inside the application I could not find any missing function (except for bugs).
Therefore I would not call this at the present time greed of the enterprise.

Just delete the App on iOS 9.x and download it again from the AppStore and you're fine. 

I just tried that step myself. It doesn't work if you have a server that is not always available (private WebDaV server).
After the download I completely reinstalled myself and could synchronize with the WebDAV server without any problems.
After that I finished the app and left the private WLAN network. In the mobile provider network I started the app wiedr. After the LogIN crashin the app immediately again.

The problem is that the app crashes as soon as the server is not available.
This problem did not exist in the previous version.
The work here was simply bad.
Especially the optional possibility to synchronize only in the WLAN is missing.
Even if one is in the WLAN, and the server is not available, the internal App examination must notice this however may then the synchronization only abort but not the entire App useless make.

best regards

Chris

I also have the current Enpass version on iOS 12.1.2 since yesterday.
Hardware is an iPhone 7 and an iPhone 7 Plus.
On both devices the app collapses when you open it.
If there is no data connection (airplane mode) the app can be opened and used.
I have a WebDAV server ( Synology) in my app to synchronize.
If the server is reachable, the app seems to work.
If the server is not reachable via WLAN or mobile data connection (is checked at startup) the app crashes.
This is the real problem, I think.
It is definitely necessary to implement an option in the app that synchronization can only take place via the WLAN.

This problem did not exist in the previous version!
Why was such a buggy app (there are other problems) released?
I bought a Pro license for my mobile devices and cannot use it at the moment.
Would the developers also like to buy goods and not be able to use them afterwards?

Very very badly converted opposite the paying customer.

Going on a rampage and writing such strong words was never a constructive method of discussion or a sign of intelligence. Please calm down and choose your word with a bit more consideration. If you want to get your anger out, go to a football/soccer stadium or in a box ring. This is a forum, where we usually try to stay polite and to contribute to a friendly and productive discussion. Besides, you don't seem to have even read or understood *all* that illogic-al has written. Please try once more, and if there are words or sentences you don't understand, use google or ask an adult person. 

I can officially write down my displeasure towards people who are not able to express problems professionally.
It is extremely annoying for me as a forum user, when I look at headlines to topics in an area which then gives me untruths and false statements!
When I'm in a Tech Forum, I should have at least enough brains to name the incorrect topics truthfully.
For all other crap and nonsense, there is Facebook and Co.

"Deise are completely transparent" 

What does that even mean?

And as I pointed out in quite detailed fashion, this IS a BAIT AND SWITCH. 

The previous Mac version already allowed you to unlock with touchID. I would know, I actually *own* a mac. My problem isn't these features being premium, it's with them changing the rules, and worse, tieing them to apple and microsoft platforms. You can love Enpass all you want. There are those of us who have no further use for user hostile moves like this. I'm one of them.
 

Take away the requirement for these premium features to be a tied to Apple, Google, or Microsoft and I'll actually by their software again. The fact that they broke the extensions for ALL Chrome/Vivaldi users of the old version tell us exactly what we need to know here. This is a money grab. Plain and simple.  They could have left the old extension, or added it as "Enpass Legacy" or some such thing. But they didn't. They forced upgrading to the new extension which does not work with the old version of Enpass so you MUST get the new version, and for what. A bluer UI? Please.  

 

I have had the desktop version for some time.
Which function from the old version can you currently no longer use?
I don't have to register for any service with the desktop version.
If I save a backup of the new version on my current system, I can take it with me anywhere and restore it there.
Under Windows, under Linux, under MacOS and under iOS !

Hi @th3Chris,

Thanks for your kind advice. All the issues have been added to roadmap.

Thanks.

Hello Mr. Kumar,

thanks for the feedback.
I am not a long time Enpass user yet.
At what intervals do you get updates to bugs when they are integrated into the roadmap?

best regards

Chris

Keepass import is incomplete. Only entries that are not in a Keepassfolder are imported.

Did you export as TXT or CSV?
I used to have problems with importing from a CSV.
With TXT it was always good.

Thanks for this information. *sigh* Looks like it's time for me to go looking for another password manager. 
The main problem isn't that the desktop version which was previously fully free now has premium features, although them breaking their word on this does nothing to make me believe they won't make another promise breaking change in the future (mark my words, they will if customers put up with it). That is a secondary problem (for me at least)........"

 

This statement is the same bullshit as the creator's headline!
The desktop version for MAC and Windows will remain FREE OF CHARGE WITHOUT a login to an OS service !

There is now only in both versions a purchase possibility for " nice to have " features:

For the MAC:

Unlock using Touch ID
Create your own Categories
Create your own templates

For Windows:

Unlock using Windows Hello
Dark theme
Create your own Categories
Create your own templates

All other features remain free of charge.

Before we write nonsense again, read the features! Deise are completely transparent !!

@ Creator

Change your heading to the topic. It is ridiculous what you write here but ultimately mean!

Hello Support,

thanks for the new update and the price promotion.
Today I also switched to the mobile PRO version ( iOS ).
Please also provide the PRO upgrade for the traditional version ( for Windows 7 ).
However, there are a lot of problems:

Problems with synchronization via WebDAV:

If a different dataset is available on the phone than on the WebDAV server, Enpass recognizes both datasets and shows them as well, BUT Enpass only wants to merge the datasets afterwards.
This process is no synchronization!
If both data records are already recognized, the user must be able to select which data record is to be synchronized.
If the user should not intervene, then it must be recognized during the synchronization which data set is more current and use this as primary data set and also synchronize this !

Absolutely change !!

Problems with category assignment:

If a record is connected to a category, it is not displayed on the record!
This is not user-friendly with an adjustment. Even if there are groups, the stored category must be visible on the record!

Absolutely change !!

New Tresor prevents synchronization Icon

When you create a new Tresor on the Desktop Client ( Windows), the icon for the synchronization between the PC and a CloudSystem disappears in the upper left corner.
Only the icon for both safes or the icon for the individual safes is displayed.
The icon for the synchronization is then completely missing.
If you delete the new Tresor, the icon for the Syncronisation appears again.

Result:

Furthermore, the look of all icons in the desktop version does not look sharp and clear anymore. The colors look blurred.
Optically the predecessor version was much nicer and clearer in the picture !

Please give the user the possibility to switch between the old and the new view via a theme in the GUI.

In the new version there are demonstrably more badnesses ( errors ) than to be pleased about innovations.
Maybe you should have waited with the release.

Please fix the serious bugs ( synchronization ) urgently.
