If you have to travel to certain countries to need to have a blank burner to pass the custom and retrieve your working files afterwards, how would you do it?

@ada "back up to cloud then restore after you land" is probably the best option, but one thing to note is that depending on the country, having a "burner" might also be sus. It might be best to simply remove the more sensitive apps and accept the risk. A phone with nothing but stock apps, the Delta app, and a messenger looks way more sus than a phone that looks like a daily driver.

Just food for thought.
