Keepass2Android is based on KeePassDroid and it comes with full read/write support for keepass 2.x database as well as username/password auto-fill for most mobile browsers for Android. However, it is only compatible only with keepass 1.x database (beta support for keepass 2.x database) and the lack of integration with the mobile browser prevented it from becoming the perfect app. All the while, KeePassDroid has been the go-to app to manage our password database in Android.
