    Yeah, I have mine set to 12 to be a little less tight. Not so short that it reboots on a regular basis, but I think 12 hours would be pretty short for a thief to get my phone to a cracker in time. (assuming they even have access to tools to crack modern calyxos) I always power off my phone off going through customs.

      Sadly, it seems todays law allows them to force you to unlock it, otherwise they straight up treat you as a terrorist. At least in UK it seems (source: Britannica youtuber getting detained when returning home to UK)

        Yeah, my main concern is visiting US customs as a US citizen, there they can’t (legally) punish US citizens for not unlocking their phones, aside from a few hours dentention/“enhanced interrogation”.

        Not sure what the laws are in Sweden and Denmark, where I usually fly into the EU from, but usually they don’t search phones at borders. Swedish police are more inclined to just look you up in the residence database and get a warrant for a home visit, I believe.

        Other countries would risk a diplomatic incident from Sweden if they used force to make me unlock my phone 🤷
