Randomized Wifi MAC address

/e/OS Foundation & Community Data Privacy

Hello everyone,

Andoid 10 introduced a feature which randomizes the Wifi MAC address for each Hotspot. Unfortunately this feature appears to be not present in /e/ (I can’t see the option in the wifi settings and I confirmed that I connect to a hotspot with the physical MAC address).
Any idea why this is not present and an alternative way to get it (ideally without installing an additional app, for example like in NetworkManager by changing some settings)?

Thanks, Dr. Pink

Interesting, so no limitation of /e/ but of the built of my phone (FP3+ with 0.14-q).
Found now also the corresponding bug report in git:

Thanks for the hint @Chimpthepimp!
