Does the disk encryption of Android count as encrypted at rest? If not, I think this will be a hard requirement to meet.
That aside, I'm having good luck with Synching. I think there's a bit of a learning curve setting it up, but you don't really have to touch it once you're done.
No, as I'd want it to be protected in the case someone gets a hold of the device in an unlocked state.
I found Syncthing very nice to work with, and successfully synced between my two device, so I would love to keep using it. But as it is now, I would have to sync the unencrypted files on both my devices. Not sure how it will behave if I try to sync the mounted drive on my computer, if the vault is locked.
My only guess is that you could maybe use Termux to set up a gocryptfs mount that Obsidian could use, but I'm not sure if that would work or not. gocryptfs encrypts files physically on the drive, but exposes them unencrypted under a transparent logical mount.
Edit: DroidFS uses gocryptfs in the backend, maybe that would be easier.
Interesting. Would require the use of some of the unsafe features, but at first glance it does look like this could work.
Isn't syncthing already encrypted?
The transfer I would assume is encrypted, but it is the files at rest I am interested in making sure is encrypted.
I have been thinking through this exact problem in the past few weeks. Let's write back with what we come up with! I'm going to explore the DroidFS suggestion.
