I am using KeePass v2 and I am a bit confused about synchronizing the kbdx file on google drive. There seems to be two ways and not sure what the advantages/disadvantages are between them.
Using the KPGoogleSync plugin
Store the kdbx on the Google sync folder (C:\users\xxx\Google Drive)
It doesn't seem that either one can detect changes that were made by a mobile device and automatically load them in. Both methods seem to require open and closing of the database in order to get the most recent changes done externally. The plugin does seem to have a menu based way of performing the update as well.
So what benefit would there be to use one versus the other that I am missing? I am most worried about the sync process and losing data between desktop and mobile device. Is one preferred over the other?
The sync plugin can handle simultaneous changes on both sides of the sync.
It merges the databases when syncing by knowing the structure and change dates of each entry in the key database.
Using the external sync tool, this merge is not possibly since the tool can not know the structure and the encyrption key of the database.

I need to bypass device identification by an app.
I have tried the following method to bypass but did not work:
Using VPN
Clear app data
Reinstall app from playstore
Reinstall from downloaded apk file
Change device id (my device is rooted)
Change google account associated in the device
Insert different SIM Card
What data reference in the device that an app used?
Short answer - only a factory reset will clear those identifiers.
Depends on the android version you are using and considering that everything you mentioned above didn't work, The app is probably using an Android Id or a combination of custom GUID'S.
If it's below android 10, even a factory reset won't necessarily help since it might be using the device IMEI for identification.

I'm currently working on a project with another person, aat first we tried using the Google Drive desktop App but due to the App adding .ini files the project won´t work. So now we tried exporting but even then it doesn´t really works, so I wanna know how can we share the file. I´m also new in this kinda stuff.
The title doesn't match your question. You don't want to share your project, you want to work on it with multiple people at the same time.
The industry standard solution for this is using a version control software called git. Git allows you to easily create different revisions of your project and jump back and forth between those. This is done by grouping code changes to a commit. A commit kind of creates a snapshot of the current state of your project which you can always jump back to. For example if something breaks.
You can also host your project on a git server: This allows multiple people to clone the same project, make changes to it on separate branches, push the code back to the server and merge the changes.
The most popular solutions are github and probably gitlab which both offer free tiers.

I am starting to develop a vocabulary app out of necessity without good prior knowledge of the tools that I will have to use. Please excuse the nooby question: your answers, even short and vague, will save me lots of time...
The app is supposed to store entries made by user (words) and display them for learning purposes. Once the words are entered from a mobile device, the database should be accordingly updated on PC. If the entries are made from PC, the database is updated on the mobile phone. What is an adequate way to implement this? If written in C# with SQLite, the database file would have to be imported/exported each time the entries are made which would be painful.
I have just a guess that a kind of a web app will suite the purpose. From you I only need general directions: what languages, what techonology/software/tools. Thank you and sorry for the type of question!
As you stated, you're only at the beginning.
But in order to give you a general guideline to help you started, I would save the DB in firebase DB solutions (they used to have one, now there two). Then, you'll have read and write access to it both from your PC client and your Android client (and any other client that is connected to the internet, like iPhone as well for that matter).
This also lets you to pick any programming language you'd like.
Firebase is Google's set of many handy tools and libraries that help during software and app development. You can read more at the official site: https://firebase.google.com/.

I use SQLite database in my app. Everything worked fine up until recently. Now whenever I do new build from Studio on my Android device everything gets reset into a state that it was like several days ago. The same items are present and all changes that I did to them are lost.
Is there some way to fix this or clear this cache? Even if I remove app from device, Studio on next build inserts the save data. Change the option to preserve data does nothing too.
I got back to working with Android Studio and there I found out right away what the issue was. Android 6.0 and above has automatic backup feature which is in Xamarin.Forms app on by default. Disabling auto backup makes all my data issues go away.
More information can be found here too:

I'm not very experienced with developing app/tools, but I really want to develop (if practically possible) a tool that would notify the owner of the Google Drive folder of the information related to someone else accessing the folder (assuming that the folder is shared with that someone) such as, Access Date/Time, Accessed By etc. In my opinion, this would only be done if the user/owner has the tool/app opened/switched on.
I was reading the Google Drive API but couldn't find anything useful on this.
I'd like to know how to get started with this project, if this is even possible? I'm not very experienced but I want to learn as I grow.
I recommend going though the Google Drive API. When set up correctly Changes.watch will notify you when ever a file has been changed the trick for you will then be to notify your user.
Alternative would be to just check the file every now and then and see if it had been changed using file.get. However this is probably over kill depending upon how soon after the change you want to know about it.
I am not an android dev so cant help you much more then that. Your question is rather broad so once you start working with it if you have any issues getting it working I recommend you ask a new question directly related to those issues. Welcome to stack
