Until we implement that natively, there's a workaround so that you don't need to re-type everything:
To import your data to pwSafe you'll need to perform the following procedure on a PC:
1) Export your data to CSV format.
2) Conform your data to the expected format (see bellow). You can use a spreadsheet editor like Excel or Numbers for that.
3) Import your data into Password Safe free app - http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net
4) Safe your data in Password Safe.
5) Copy your new .psafe3 file to pwSafe using either:
5.1) iTunes - http://app77.com/pwSafe/faq.html#q1 -
5.2) eMail - http://app77.com/pwSafe/faq.html#q2
5.3) Dropbox - http://app77.com/pwSafe/faq.html#q4The CSV format must adhere to this rules:
Imported text is assumed to have:
* A Title Row as the first record in the text file.
* A delimiter to reinstate the 'newline' character in a multi-line Notes field and the period ('.'), if present, in the Title field. The default is '»' [Alt+0187], which may be overridden if needed.>
The Title Row for full data export currently contains the following fields by default, separated by a tab.* Group/Title
* Username
* Password
* URL
* AutoType
* Created Time
* Password Modified Time
* Last Access Time
* Password Expiry Date
* Password Expiry Interval
* Record Modified Time
* Password Policy
* History
* Run Command
* DCA
* e-mail
* Protected Status
* Symbol list for password generation
* NotesBest regards,

I changed recently to pwsafe. The old password-manager can export to CSV, but with no import into pwsafe I still have to retype every stored password. That's anoying and dull, so please make a simple CSV-import function.
