Add DB version indicator for sync status visibility
Description: When syncing a vault across devices, there's currently no way to tell which copy is more up-to-date. Please consider adding a short version hash or monotonic counter to each local database — similar to a git commit short SHA (e.g. aa09276) or a lamport timestamp.
This would allow users to:
visually confirm which device holds the latest vault state
detect sync conflicts before they cause data loss
have confidence the sync actually completed successfully
Suggested display: A small indicator in the vault/sync settings screen, e.g.:
Vault: MyPasswords
DB version: a3f91bc · Last synced: 2 min agoAlternative approaches worth considering:
Monotonic counter — simpler (
v1042), increments on every write, easy to compareContent hash (SHA of the full DB) — precise but slightly heavier
Logical timestamp — e.g. ISO 8601 of last write, no extra infra needed
Any of these would significantly improve sync confidence for power users.
