A few notes: 1 - DO NOT FORGET YOUR PASSWORD 2 - This will work across pretty much all modern flash and hard drives 3 - Formatting to APFS will prevent this device from being used on Windows or Android, Apple OS Systems only.

Thank you! Is it possible to make it work on a Windows PC and then on an iPhone 15 pro? For that I assume, we can't use APFS.

@@482ksdactually someone just commented they used a Mac emulator on their windows and then it worked on their iPhone since they did not have a Mac. Pretty clever but probably not simple. You could also find someone with a Mac or go to an Apple Store with your drive and set it there on a display computer.

how do i set a password on my flashdrive if i only have a windows laptop? (i use an iphone 15)

I don’t believe that you can, it’s using Apple’s file formatting system which is not readable on windows let alone formatable. The best bet would be find someone with a Mac or go to an Apple Store and see if they’d let you use a showpiece Mac to do it.

@@rishabpareek1795 that’s a great question that I sadly don’t have an answer for, I never purchased an adapter to try on anything lightning so maybe someone would be able to comment and help. I imagine the password is relevant still as there is no way to get around it but it’s a matter of will the adapter properly read the drive. I would order a cheap one on Amazon to trial it, if it doesn’t work you can always return, that’s how I do a lot of trial and error with devices. Best of luck!

If I use macOS emulator on windows can I do that?

That’s a great question actually! No you can’t do it on windows typically, an emulator might work but no experience with that. The easiest would be to find someone with a Mac to do it on, or go to an Apple Store to just use a Mac to encrypt the drive then you should be set. I use Mac for personal and Windows for work so I rarely have to cross content from a drive across OS.

@@yh0h good question, sadly the answer is no. The Mac is doing all the formatting and set up on that drive, the drive can’t be formatted by the iPhone. The password is set only once when you select the encryption and can’t be changed (as far as I am aware of) without reformatting the drive on the Mac.
