Enable microSD Card Encryption
Worried that others might see your photos and other personal data after you lend them your microSD
card? You can encrypt the les stored in your microSD card so that no one else who gets the card can
access your personal data. Encrypted les can only be viewed and used on your own device. Other
people can use the microSD card's storage space, but cannot view the content of any encrypted les.
