This is not about (my) Android (version), I think this is more about OpenKeychain (still) not having implemented this. For whatever reason. However, I filed an issue for that: https://github.com/open-keychain/open-keychain/issues/2900 IMO interoperability with GnuPG is crucial for this project. Most people using that on their phones will come from Linux, or they will at least be GnuPG users. Let's hope for the best ... > RSA has nothing to do with this.
