I want to migrate my friends to self-hosted Matrix server I have for some time now. The problem is, that all Android clients seem missing for me. Element is too buggy (especially for encryption) and has bad UX. Element X is still experimental and lacks core features. FluffyChat has most features and nice ones like stickers, but calls or location sharing is here as a placeholder but not really working.

If you migrated someone to Matrix, what client did you found out to “be working” for people not caring about protocol? Because I care for protocol and can stand some bugs, that others could not.

    Yeah, you can use Element web and reset the account password using “forgot password” to use the beeper homeserver, but OP is asking about Android clients

    The Beeper client is 100% not usable for Matrix-to-Matrix messaging, I don’t think it even supports e2ee, but I have heard they’re working on it.
