You’ll probably want to read the warning/information here, but it’s basically what I’ve already told you. You’ll want to scroll down and tap on the Lock Screen and Security option and then from here, scroll down and tap on the Encrypt SD Card option that you see in this menu. If you’re ready to take the plunge though, then head into the Settings application on your Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. So, if you like to keep all of your music on your SD card so you can swap it out from device to device then do not encrypt the SD card. As mentioned above, please make sure that you understand encrypting the SD card means you cannot access the data on the SD card from other devices. My goal is to introduce you to this specific feature so you know about it and you have the option to enable it if you want to. I’m not here to convince you one way or the other though. Most people are either really pro-encryption or they are against it. Then Tap on the ‘Encrypt SD Card’ Button at the Bottom.Scroll Down and Tap on the ‘Encrypt SD Card’ Option.Scroll Down and Tap on the ‘Lock Screen and Security’ Option.You’ll see this information before you actually encrypt the Galaxy S7 SD card, but I just want to make sure you understand this before you proceed.

I do want to note though, if you encrypt the data on the SD card in the Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge, then you cannot access that data on any other device.
