User Reviews

Element X on iOS shows usable core chat and faster performance, with improvements over the old Element and some deeming it better than Discord. Common complaints include sign-in failures, persistent notification badges, occasional grey-screen loads, and lack of RTL support and iOS feature parity. Overall, it’s promising but unstable for many users.

Pros

Core chat functionality is usable and generally works.
Significantly faster performance than the previous Element app.
Overall improved experience over the older Element app.
Some users view it as a better alternative to Discord.
General positive sentiment, with praise like "Great app".

Cons

Frequent sign-in/login failures (on organization accounts, generic errors).
Persistent or stuck notification badges and unread indicators.
App loading instability, including grey screens and inability to access chats.
Lack of proper right-to-left (RTL) support, breaking mixed Persian/Arabic text.
Missing iOS-specific features and parity (stickers, SSO, etc.) compared with Android.

Recent reviews

Getting logged into a Matrix server is an esoteric challenge, but once you’re in, this app works great. It does have Spaces and Rooms. I even saw an indicator that there was a thread in one of my rooms. I don’t see the ability to make a thread myself.

It would be nice that when I type a link in the chat, it would show all the media attached to the linked post. Also I'd appreciate having the ability to change my matrix domain and matrix username. The display name doesn't count.
