More About Element - Secure Messenger
Element is a unique messaging and collaboration application that offers advanced online communication tools. It stands out from other apps because it operates on the Matrix open network, which allows for secure messaging and decentralized communication. This means that users have maximum ownership and control over their data and messages, and can even choose to self-host the app. One of the key features of Element is its focus on privacy and security. It offers fully encrypted messages, protecting users from unwanted ads, data mining, and walled gardens. It also uses end-to-end encryption and cross-signed device verification for all data, video, and voice communication. This gives users control over their privacy while still being able to communicate securely with others on the Matrix network or through integration with other business collaboration tools. Another unique aspect of Element is its ability to be self-hosted. This means that users can choose where to keep their data and messages, without the risk of data mining or access from third parties. They can also choose to sign up for an account on a custom server through the Element Matrix Services hosting platform. Element also offers open messaging and collaboration, allowing users to chat with anyone on the Matrix network, regardless of the app they are using. It also offers a variety of features such as file sharing, screen sharing, and integrations with other tools and apps. This allows for complete communication and integration, making it easier for teams to stay in touch and get things done. One of the benefits of using Element is the ability to pick up where you left off. The app offers fully synchronized message history across all devices and on the web, making it easy to stay connected no matter where you are. Additionally, Element is an open source project, meaning that users can report bugs and contribute to its development on GitHub. This further emphasizes the app's commitment to transparency and user control. Overall, Element is a powerful and secure tool for online communication and collaboration.

Element is completely different from other messaging and collaboration apps. It operates on Matrix, an open network for secure messaging and decentralized communication. It allows self-hosting to give users maximum ownership and control of their data and messages.
