Element X Android is a Matrix Android Client provided by element.io.

The application is a total rewrite of Element-Android using the Matrix Rust SDK underneath and targeting devices running Android 7+. The UI layer is written using Jetpack Compose, and the navigation is managed using Appyx.

Note that at one point in time Element will change into ElementX. (but it’s up to the devs to decide when etc)
