Best matrix client for android

3 years ago by Ambuj Yadav to c/matrix

Title + I know best is subjective but why you prefer your one.

Also is there something as minimal as hydrogen website.(Small talk is not a complete client probably)

Is there a way to get Element X via fdroid?

Not yet. But you can use Obtanium to get it from github releases.

I wonder why the developers don't create a release for F-droid?

I've tried every Android app out there and Element X is truly the fastest of them all. I'm talking about applications for Matrix, of course.

I hope the application remains fast after adding all the features.

@Slow @solaryth because element x is the dev version of element. You can find element on fdroid. Once it's ready element will become element x, afaik.

Many developers post their dev-alpha-beta versions of applications on various platforms.

I am currently using SchildiChat after I used Fluffychat and Element for a while.

All work fine, but Schildi looked best, when I last compared them.

Schildi and Element also have great, similiar looking desktop clients.

Shildi it's Element with some design changes, don't be so naive.

Okay, so I upgraded our server and tested Element X and it is really basic at the moment and also has rich text mode as input mode. This was already buggy in element, but had to be toggled on. Now it's always there and has errors...

Try doing a line break after an emoji and then write something, to see what I am talking about.
