Someone asked me how to install Matrix on Android, so I told them to search for Element on the Play Store, but the app there looks scammy. It’s listed as “Element X — Secure Chat & Call” by New Vector Limited, with 4.4 stars and only 644 reviews. Is that the right app?
I installed Element from F‑Droid, but I don’t want to tell someone to install more than one app just so we can communicate.
Updating: Using that package there was an “Unexpected error: Missing CSRF cookie”
Element X is the new version of Element. There’s currently 2 versions available on the store/fdroid since X is in beta.
The fdroid versions of Element X and Schildichat X both seemed to require me installing and setting up nfty to get notifications working.
