Oddbean new post about login | logout Use free NexDNS in your DNS in settings Set Bluetooth to turn off automatically (I recommend "after 2 min" Turn off NFC after use (when using yubikey etc) Wifi: Turn off "Turn on WiFi" automatically" Set Turn off Wifi Automatically (I recommend 10 min or less) Working atm...will reply with more soon :-)
ntfy for push notifications where possible Signal/Molly (hardened Signal fork) SimpleX F-Droid Basic for apks only on f-droid. I highly recommend F-Droid Basic over F-Droid it allows for unattended updates. As far as installing apps, a good rule of thumb is: apk direct from dev installed via Obtanium > apk via F-Droid Basic (signed by the dev from their official repository is considered more secure than signed by f-droid) > Aurora > Google Play
Go to Settings → Apps → Sandboxed Google Play → Google Settings → Ads, and select Delete advertising ID.
Optional, but recommended: Scramble PIN layout to protect against over the shoulder attacks. I.E. Someone watches you enter your pin, then follows you, steals your device and tries to unlock it. Settings -> Security -> Turn on Scramble PIN Layout
Go to settings and search for "Passwords & Accounts" set your system Password Manager here (I recommend Bitwarden, ProtonPass or KeepassDX) Toggle off Google
Choose to use GrapheneOS or Google Camera. I prefer Google Camera. Open Camera App -> settings -> Toggle off Save Location Note: This will not save location exif data to your photos which is more secure and private, but you will not be able to search for photos by geographic location. I highly recommend keeping this off, but some clients insist on using it, so another option is install ExifEraser and share your photos to it for processing and saving (in it's own storage scopes folder called something like, "ExifErased Media" for example) before sharing on the web.
All great advice as always
How would one identify the correct apk when there are multiple? Does it depend on which device you’re using? Ex: https://www.torproject.org/download/#android
Agree this is confusing. You very likely will need aarch64 or arm-v8, the architecture of the majority of modern phones. Some APKs are named "universal" and they contain binaries for multiple architectures within the same package
How bout for a Google pixel? Lol (Also, ty for the reply)
aarch64
