I'm happy with it but I wouldn't mind trying something new. Any recommendations?

Edit: it has to be available on Android

Keepass DX/XC (mobile/desktop) + syncthing to sync the database file between devices is the best solution out there. You can also put the database file in your cloud to follow the 3-2-1 backup.

    One tip i would recommend to OP

    Sync a copy of the db. So update on your laptop and copy the db file to the syncthing folder. This stops you phone or other device from accidently messing up your db, not that it has happened to me but it is a possibility with syncing as a concept.

    Then just use the db on the phone to access on the go but add/modify entries on the laptop and repeat the process.

    It seems tedious but its not.

    My workflow is like so

    Update / edit the db on the laptop. Run a script to copy the db to the sync folder. This syncs to my phone and server Then treat the phone copy as read only

    If i need to make a password on the phone i send it to myself on signal and add it on the laptop to keepass using signal desktop.

    This way i have a source of truth plus a distributed copy in multiple locations. The server copy gets inculded in my routine backups too
