Matrix Conference 2025

Element Call, the flagship MatrixRTC application by Element, is shaping the future of secure, federated calling. As the successor to the traditional call system in Element apps, it now powers large-scale, end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) group calls with improved reliability and seamless federation support. This talk follows up on last year’s introduction of Element Call, showcasing a year of rapid innovation — from new media transport mechanisms to enhanced mobile features — all aimed at making secure communication effortless and intuitive.

We will provide you with the latest updates on Element X mobile apps, as well the plan to sunset our classic Element apps. This includes both the current state, as well as a look into what to expect during the next couple of months and details about specific features like threads and spaces that many people are looking forward to on Element X. In the second part we’ll cover the intent and purpose behind the Element Pro apps - who are these for and why, and as part of it, look into how we’re allowing our customers to publish self-branded apps for a complete sovereign messaging solution.
