A friend of mine got herself a new Xperia 10 and wants to encrypt the SD card. It seems this option is no longer available - previously there was a “Encrypt SD card” option in settings - but no more. Apparently it was also possible to use the SD card as “Adoptable storage” - but no more.

Is it at all possible to encrypt an SD card on Android (15) or is de-googling the only option?

    so that means we should just never loose our phones i guess … … or switch to the dark (customOS) side …

        yes, thx for that hint indeed! Looks like I have to jump into that cold water indeed. (have to educate myself first on what that all involves exactly…)

        I just am also frustrated that these big corps can make such anti consumer decisions and get away with it …
