Version 1.11.34 brings improved support for homeservers running the latest version of Matrix Authentication Service.

Version 1.11.33 contains a small fix for rageshakes.

The Element app is now called Element Classic. If you haven't already, we recommend you try out our newer app Element X, which will soon become the default Element app for iOS. It's faster, simpler & more reliable.

Good news everyone Element Classic has been updated to support upcoming v12 rooms, so that your chats will work when your homeserver will prompt you to update your rooms. This new room version introduces the concept of Owners, which have higher privileges than admins, and coincide with the room creators.

Good news everyone! This version includes an important security update, that makes Element even more secure.

Good news everyone EL-iOS support is still ongoing and contains some stability improvements and bug fixes. However don't miss out Element X, the fastest Element client ever if you want the best possible Element experience.

Bug fixes and stability improvements.

Bug fixes and stability improvements

As Matrix starts moving towards the Matrix 2.0 spec, some homeservers won't be fully supported by this app. This release starts to add some guidance when one of these servers is selected, helping you to get set up on Element X instead.

This version fixes a crash when restoring your keys, a bug encountered when resetting cross-signing and makes sure that group calls ring as expected when the labs flag has been enabled.

This new version will recognise Matrix RTC calls as unsupported.
