Phone encryption makes the data on your phone not just inaccessible to Unauthorized people but also ensures that nobody can decipher the content unless the pass code is inserted.
Without the pass code, an encrypted data is just like a large sheet of paper that has been torn into very tiny pieces.
Just before you start encrypting your Android phone, please take note of the following (Very Important); .
Things to Note before encrypting your Android phone
* Ensure you have a fully charged battery on your phone and keep the phone plugged to a power source throughout the process, it may take several minutes depending on how large your data is.
* When asked to create a pass code, make sure you use a strong pass code that will be very difficult to guess by others and very easy to remember to you.
* After successful encryption, it will take a little longer than usual for your phone to finish booting when you power ON.
* If the phone gets lost or stolen, the phone remain encrypted and can only be decrypted when the correct pass code is entered. .
