App Based Encryption. Nope. That Mobile shackled B.S is a PITA already been through that HELL when 2FA from the company I work for with trash such as root detection and worse being BL Unlock.
The situations where secure external storage would truly be useful are the same situations that would disallow use of phones or devices containing Bluetooth. In a word, this is not useful.
I guess this would be fine for non-sensitive stuff. As far as these affordable consumer-grade secure drives go, I'd prefer one with a physical keypad. That and automatic self-erasure after too many wrong password attempts, epoxy-coated electronics, the best certifications possible, etc.
