About Element X Android
Element X Android is in feature-flag-graduation mode as it closes parity with the classic client.
Element X Android is on a tight bi-weekly cadence (v26.05.2 just shipped). The recent rhythm is dominated by feature-flag removals — Sign-in-with-classic, LiveLocationSharing, RoomDirectorySearch — turning experimental capabilities into defaults. Element Call is being polished (edge-to-edge layout, declined-call timeline items), DM flows are being redesigned (new room on invite), and pin-code plus biometric handling has had several iterative fixes.
