How can I set a distinct password for:
1. The Full Disk Encryption password (used to boot the device)
2. The Lock Screen password (used to unlock the device)
For security reasons, I use a 25-50 character password to protect my devices when off and a shorter password for the lock screen.
This was previously possible using apps such as:
1. EncPassChanger or
2. Cryptfs Password
I just upgraded my phone, and neither of these apps appear to work in Android 10.
How can I set a distinct password for [a] the boot password and [b] the lockscreen password in Android 10?
