Never store anything incriminating on your phone. How hard can it be. Your phone is never your friend.

A compact Linux device without any biometrics, telemetry, public clouds and corporate spying software is probably what you could be looking for.

How do i know if it's incriminating or not?


Nothing has to be on your phone for a cop to demand its contents. At which point, if they want to find something incriminating, rest assured they will.

“Nothing to fear if you’re not doing anything wrong” is a fallacy that serves only the cops
