I want to migrate my friends to self-hosted Matrix server I have for some time now. The problem is, that all Android clients seem missing for me. Element is too buggy (especially for encryption) and has bad UX. Element X is still experimental and lacks core features. FluffyChat has most features and nice ones like stickers, but calls or location sharing is here as a placeholder but not really working.

If you migrated someone to Matrix, what client did you found out to "be working" for people not caring about protocol? Because I care for protocol and can stand some bugs, that others could not.

My friends use Element since it has become a lot less buggy in my experience in the last few months, and is feature rich. Given the apparent requirements (calls, location sharing, etc), I don’t know if there are any other android clients that offer everything you’re looking for. If it’s been a bit since you’ve used Element, I would try it again. Could even have unencrypted (group chat) rooms depending on security requirements since all accounts will be on your instance to avoid encryption issues.
