Element X vs Park4talk

Freedom to communicate on your own terms For individuals and communities - private communication between family, friends, hobby groups, clubs, etc. Element X gives you fast, secure and private instant messaging and video calls built on Matrix, the open standard for real-time communication. This is a free and open-source app maintained at https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios Stay in touch with friends, family and communities with: • Real time messaging & video calls • Public rooms for open group communication • Private rooms for closed group communication • Rich messaging features: emoji reactions, replies, polls, pinned messages and more. • Video calling while browsing messages. • Interoperability with other Matrix-based apps such as FluffyChat, Cinny and many more. Privacy-first Unlike some other messengers from Big Tech companies, we don’t mine your data or monitor your communications. Own your conversations Choose where to host your data - from any public server (the largest free server is matrix.org, but there are plenty of others to choose from) to creating your own personal server and hosting it on your own domain. This ability to choose a server is a large part of what differentiates us from other real time communication apps. However you host, you have ownership; it’s your data. You’re not the product. You’re in control. Communicate in real time, all the time Use Element everywhere. Stay in touch wherever you are with fully synchronised message history across all your devices, including on the web at https://app.element.io Element X is our next-generation app If you’re using the previous-generation Element Classic app, it’s time to try Element X! It’s faster, easier to use, and more powerful than the classic app. It’s better in every way and we’re adding new features all the time.

park4talk is a simple messenger and calling app for your own people: family, friends, a small team. • Phone-to-phone calls with end-to-end encryption and a safety code you can compare by voice. • Messages, photos, videos, files up to 25 MB and voice notes — encrypted on your phone; the server only keeps a sealed envelope until it is delivered. • Group chats. • Translation of incoming messages into your language — only if you turn it on and agree. Messages being translated pass through our server and an AI translation service. • Incoming calls on iPhone use the system call screen, even when the app is closed. Only your people. You add someone by a code like 123-456 — and only after they confirm. Strangers can't message or call you. Any contact can be blocked. Nothing extra. No phone number or e-mail needed. No ads, trackers or analytics. Chat history is stored only on the participants' phones. You can delete your account at any time right in the app.
