Revision history [back]

OpenKeychain is a new android app for GPG key management, encryption/decryption and signing/verification. It can work together with K9 mail, to provide encrypted and signed email.

As Jolla's email app does not provide encryption at this time, it would be nice to be able to use K9 mail together with OpenKeychain.

However, I cannot get OpenKeychain to work properly. In particular, after installing, it seems impossible to import my private key:

• The "open file" option shows only the gallery as a source of available files. I even tried copying my key file to the gallery folder, but apparently only photos are shown.
• The clipboard paste function does not work either: as sailfish to android clipboard functionality is not yet implemented, I tried to copy my private key file from another android app (firefox) and paste it in the OpenKeychain import dialog, but without result.

Is there anyone who knows how to get this to work? Is the lack of translation of the file picker interface from android to sailfish a known issue?
