Current version is 0.9.9 released on November 27, 2019.

Will the next one be the one release to create a true alternative (and even safer, open) alternative for the likes of Telegram?

The current version works well of Sailfish OS / Android but lacks much needed simplicity.

    You can see it here. It’s in beta testing in Play Store (v0.11.0 from few days ago).

    It’s a complete rewrite in Kotlin language and a new Kotlin SDK and follows a more traditional messenger UI (e.g. rooms are listed top-down instead of left-right like in riot-android).

      Sound absolutely promising. Also that Telegram lacks video calls… Yet Riot IIRC has 'em already.

        Riot integrates Jitsi for calls. It’s been a long time since I last tried, but it worked.

        You may also check Pattle too. It’s a more casual, family-oriented Matrix client.

          Danke. Will keep eye on Pattle too then. But Riot appears to be where the full force is at now!
