Just got around to installing iPadOS/iOS beta 3 and play around with the external drive support. For non encrypted supported file systems is great, but I was wondering if anyone has had success getting an encrypted (APFS or HFS+) drive to connect, if there are any resources in the forums/web regarding this, or if there is any wording from Apple regarding whether to expect or not this for the release version. Thanks!
Got a tip for us?

Nope. Not this time around at least. It's explicitly stated that non-encrypted drives are supported. A little disappointing for sure.
