How To

In order to send credentials to this page you first need to follow 4 simple steps:

1. Download and install needed app on your phone/tablet
   • Keepass2Android Password Manager (online or offline version)
   • KeeLink Plug-In for Keepass2Android (here)
2. Open this page on the device you want to send the credentials.
3. Open Keepass2Android and click on button 'Send with KeeLink' in the entry context menu
4. On the opened window you can scan the QR code on this page and wait for credentials to be sent.

How it works

KeeLink has a very simple and strong architecture, it is composed mainly of two parts:

• The Android one
  • KeeLink Android application acts as a bridge from Keepass2Android to this web page. Every credentials is retrieved from the Keepass Database (KDBX). Once the credentials are received, the application waits for the user to scan QR code with its device camera. QR Code contains a simple URL as ksid://yourpersonalanduniquesessionid, so when the QR code is correctly parsed, the credentials are, firstly, encrypted with an RSA 1024 bit public key and then sent to a database and associated with 'yourpersonalanduniquesessionid'. No other information are sent over network, that is important for you because it is essential for me to mantain your credentials as safe as possible. More security for your credentials was added by the HTTPS/SSL protocol that is used for real transmission from your Android device to this site.
• The PHP one
  • KeeLink PHP application acts only as a simple server that build a custom session ID, random generated, only for you. It is converted to QR Code and dispayed at the top of the page. Once QR is received your page starts querying database and listening for upcoming credentials. When credentials are received, they will be deleted from database.

That's all! But if you don't trust me let's see the source code
You will find there also instructions to self-host the web application.
