Sync sometimes pushes old passwords on top of new ones

[Hecsa]

Hi everyone, I'm writing because I have a strange sync issue with the app.

First of all let me list my current setup to have some context:
I mostly use Apple devices (MacBook Pro M1, iPad and iPhone) and a Windows 11 PC.
Every device have the latest version of Enpass available, all setup with cloud sync on Google Drive.

Yesterday I noticed that some recently updated passwords went back to the old ones.
I suspect that one of my devices that I use less (maybe the iPad) pushed an old version of the password database to the cloud without checking if there was a newer version, and that led to new passwords being overwritten.
What's funny is that at some point I had my iPad with Enpass with an item, side-by-side with my iPhone with the same item and a different password, and this persisted even after forcing a sync on both devices.

At the moment I don't even know how many passwords were changed, since I'm discovering them one by one while trying to log into different websites, and for the time being i'm just asking those websites for a password reset.

Has this ever happened to someone that maybe found a solution? I also checked on my mobile devices if there was some background activity block, but found none. Could it be something relevant only on iOS devices? (I recently switched to iPhone, before I was using an Android device and I don't remember this ever happening there).

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Hecsa,

Welcome to the Enpass Community Forum. 

Thank you for reporting the presence of this issue. Make sure all the devices have the latest Enpass versions and their date & time are the same across the devices. If both the details matched, try reinstalling the Enpass and restore the data on the device in question. Let me know if that helps.

Hi @Manish Chokwal,

Thanks for answering!
I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the Enpass app from every device I own, and I took this occasion to switch my Cloud Sync from Google Drive to iCloud, copying every password from one Vault to the other.
Now it's only a matter of waiting and hoping this behavior doesn't happen again, and if so, I'll be sure to drop an update on this thread.

Same problem here, but I sync between android and windows pc. Only the PC versions are reverting password updates. Uninstalled the store version on the two affected systems and I now try out the "website version".
