Is there any hope for Android at this point? I like the freedom to hack on my phone, but it's quickly feeling like I'll need to get an iPhone for real work and leave the Android stuff as a hobby.
My personal wishlist would include an equivalent of iOS's ability to encrypt new files to a public key while the phone is locked, as pointed out by Matt Green in "The limitations of Android N Encryption", but I'm interested in your perspective.
* Pair locking [1]
* Updates for longer than 18 months [2]
