- Permalink support is finished and will be available in next week’s release candidate! This includes support for users, rooms and events along with navigating to replies - We’ve finally added support for mentioning users when the Rich Text Editor is disabled. This gives markdown input parity with RTE and along with the recent change to use a plain text field, makes it the most reliable text input choice - as well as a lot of other tweaks and bug fixes Please check the full release notes at https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios/releases

1.5.12

March 18, 2024

Great news everyone! Element X has finally dropped some great new quality of life features: - Is now possible to mark a room as favourite, so that you can now keep track of the groups and the people you like to chat with the most! - If you have accidentally read a room, and you want to come back at it and read it later, but you fear you might forget to do so, no worries! Now you can mark a room as unread, allowing you to treat as any room with unread notifications. - At the same time, if you feel a room is not giving anything interesting new to read, but you don't want the green badge on it, just mark it as read, just like you would do with any uninteresting email you just received. However these three amazing features are now also supported by another amazing quality of life feature, which is... *drum roll* ..filters! Is now possible to filter the room list by DMs (People), groups (Rooms), favourites, and unread, and any combination of these, to allow at any moment to customise the content of your room list, and filter out any unwanted noise!

March 5, 2024

In this release we've improved how your homeserver identifies the latest iPhones and Mac and made the errors more helpful when first configuring a homeserver to use with Element X. Plus tapping on your avatar in the Home Screen will go straight to the settings screen. See the full release notes here: https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios/releases/tag/1.5.9

1.5.8

February 20, 2024

Get it while it's hot! The latest version of Element X is here and packed to the brim with changes galore. Enjoy! • Typing indicators have arrived! • The room member list now indicates who the admins and moderators are. • You can long press on a link to copy just the link instead of the entire message (plus there's a neat little preview too!) • The Emoji descriptions shown whilst verifying a new device are now translated. • The message composer no longer forgets your message when rotating your phone or multi-tasking on iPad. • Banned members will be displayed in the members list for a room. As always, please let us know how you're getting on with the app by sending feedback or leaving a review.

Price History of Element X

Description of Element X

Element X is the future Element. It is the brand new, and fastest ever, Matrix client. It is for personal and community use, and will support enterprise functionality later this year. A complete new build, Element X transforms performance. It’s not just the fastest Matrix client, it’s also fresher and more reliable. It’s so fast for a number of reasons, but in particular we’ve introduced a completely new synching service (‘sliding sync’). So even in big end-to-end encrypted chat rooms it operates incredibly quickly. It’s fresher because we’ve rebuilt the entire user experience. All the power of Matrix - and the complexity of decentralized end-to-end encryption - is now hidden under a beautiful and intuitive user interface using the very latest frameworks and accessibility features. Element X delivers speed, usability and reliability on the decentralized Matrix open standard. Own your data Matrix-based, Element X lets you self-host your data or choose from any free public server (the default is matrix.org, but there are plenty of others to choose from). However you host, you have ownership; it’s your data. You’re not the product. You’re in control. Interoperate natively Enjoy the freedom of the Matrix open standard! You have native interoperability with any other Matrix-based app. So just like email, it doesn't matter if your friends are on a different Matrix-based app you can still connect and chat. Encrypt your data Enjoy your right to private conversations - free from data mining, ads and all the rest of it - and stay secure. Only the people in your conversation can read your messages. And Element X E2EE applies to voice and video calls too. Chat across multiple devices Stay in touch wherever you are with fully synchronized message history across all your devices, even those running ‘traditional’ Element, and on the web at https://app.element.io

Reviews of Element X

  • Missing Features

    It’s missing the ability to manage sessions, security settings, basically do anything that you would expect a matrix client to do except show messages. Will increase rating when more basic features are added.
  • Can't get past recovery key screen

    Created and saved my recovery key but it just pops up a warning about saving it. Can't get past this point.
  • Too much is missing

    I’m trying to embrace this for my teams but there’s too much missing for this to be a viable solution for them. Why can’t I just see a list of channels grouped in their spaces? Why can’t I pin a post? Matrix is great. The app ecosystem is not.
