I was wary of storing my private GPG keys on my phone (if only because of 
theft/loss/etc), so I set up my keys on a Yubikey and use that to decrypt stuff 
on my phone. From what I understand, even if they were to obtain secrets 
decrypted by the Yubikey or exfiltrate private files, they would not be able to 
actually decrypt them given that the key resides on the Yubikey (if the private 
key were on the phone itself, they'd "just" have to crack the passphrase or 
whatever, which would presumably be much easier...).

Just another way to mitigate the risk of stuff like this.

Sincerely,

Chiraag
