Element Messenger 1.11.15

Element is a secure messenger and team collaboration app that is well-suited for group chats during remote work. This chat app utilizes end-to-end encryption to offer robust video conferencing, file sharing, and voice calls.

Key features of Element include:

• Advanced online communication tools
• Fully encrypted messages for secure corporate communication, even for remote workers
• Decentralized chat based on the Matrix open-source framework
• Secure file sharing with encrypted data for efficient project management
• Group video chat with voice over IP and screen sharing
• Easy integration with favorite online collaboration tools, project management tools, VoIP services, and other team messaging apps

What sets Element apart from other messaging and collaboration apps is its operation on Matrix, an open network for secure and decentralized communication. This allows for self-hosting, giving users maximum ownership and control over their data and messages.

Privacy and encrypted messaging are prioritized by Element. It protects users from unwanted ads, data mining, and walled gardens. Additionally, it secures all data, one-to-one video chats, and voice communication through end-to-end encryption and cross-signed device verification.

Element offers the option to self-host in order to maintain more control over sensitive data and conversations. Users can also choose from various Matrix-based hosts that adhere to the standards of open-source decentralized communication. This provides privacy, security compliance, and integration flexibility.

One notable aspect of Element is that users have complete control over their data and messages. There are three ways to utilize Element:

1. Create a free account on the matrix.org public server hosted by Matrix developers or choose from thousands of public servers hosted by volunteers
2. Self-host the account by running a server on one's own IT infrastructure
3. Sign up for an account on a custom server by subscribing to the Element Matrix Services hosting platform

Element enables open messaging and collaboration by allowing communication with anyone on the Matrix network, regardless of whether they use Element, another Matrix app, or a different messaging app altogether.

The app offers robust security measures, including real end-to-end encryption where only participants of a conversation can decrypt messages, as well as cross-signed device verification.

Element provides complete communication and integration capabilities such as messaging, voice and video calls, file sharing, screen sharing, and various integrations, bots, and widgets. It allows users to build rooms, communities, stay in touch, and efficiently accomplish tasks.

One of the app's convenient features is fully synchronized message history across all devices and on the web at https://app.element.io. This ensures users can pick up where they left off and stay connected no matter their location.
