Hello,

I do not know how, but I end up with a password in my vault with title '[error: cannot decrypt]' (related to my firefox account I think, the stored password was a big json, do not really understand where it comes from). Maybe the stored password was just too long ?

The main issue is that it makes searching in or opening the directory containing this password impossible from the android application. I was able to browse the directory from the web vault.

Deleting it from the web vault solves the issue (I can search and browse from android app now).

Sorry, I have no idea how to reproduce such password, and since I have deleted it I cannot reproduce the issue.

I post this in "core" repository since it seems related to the "cannot decrypt" issue, but I can post it in mobile app repository if you prefer

Best,

Android app 1.13.0 (1149) on android 7.0

I'm having a hard time reproducing it. I've manually broken the encrypted value of an item so that it will fail decryption but it doesn't seem to stop it from loading in my vault with '[error: cannot decrypt]'.

Are you using any organization sharing features perhaps?

I have an organization (Free plan for the organization, Premium for my account), but I don't think the password was shared in it.
