I am trying to figure out if my Android (Pie) is encrypted.
Per Is there a way for a user to tell if their Android device is encrypted or not?, it says my phone will be reported as phone encrypted
.
However, when I go Settings
--> Lock screen & security
--> Encryption & credentials
, here is what I can see:
One can see that:
- My SD card is encrypted
- Credential protection:
Hardware-backed
I see no mention of phone encrypted
.
Does this mean my phone's contents (not my SD card) is actually encrypted?
My Phone Specifics
- LG-G710VM (aka LG G7 ThinQ for Verizon)
- Android 9 (Pie)
- Secure start-up is enabled

In an answer below, @beeshyams suggested verifying encryption by following the answer to this question: How can I find out if my device uses FBE or FDE?
Using Termux I ran getprop ro.crypto.type
.
It output: block
, which means my device uses Full Disk Encryption.
