Element X Android v0.4.5

Changes in Element X v0.4.5 (2024-02-28)

Features ✨

  • Mark a room or dm as favourite. (#2208)
  • Add moderation to rooms:
    • Sort member in room member list by powerlevel, display their roles.

Bugfixes 🐛

Element X Android v0.4.3
  • Change "Read receipts" advanced setting used to send private Read Receipt to "Share presence" settings. When disabled, private Read Receipts will be sent, and no typing notification will be sent. Also Read Receipts and typing notifications will not be rendered in the timeline. (#2241)
  • Render typing notifications. (#2242)
  • Manually mark a room as unread. (#2261)
  • Fix message forwarding after SDK API change related to Timeline intitialization.
  • Remove Compose Foundation version pinning workaround. This was done to avoid a bug introduced in the default foundation version used by the material3 library, but that has already been fixed.
  • Remove FilterHiddenStateEventsProcessor, as this is already handled by the Rust SDK.
  • Remove session preferences on user log out.

Breaking changes 🚨

  • Update Compound icons in the project. Since the icon prefix changed to ic_compound_ and the CompoundIcons helper now contains the vector icons as composable functions.
