Element Nightly2026100201

Send messages, join shared rooms, and keep Matrix conversations together from a Mac desktop with Element Nightly. It acts as a Matrix collaboration client, allowing people to communicate across participating Matrix homeservers instead of being confined to one organization’s messaging service. Direct chats and room-based discussions support text, reactions, replies, attachments, and message history, while voice and video calling cover live conversations.

Element also supports encrypted conversations where the room and participating accounts have encryption enabled, giving teams a way to handle sensitive discussions within Matrix. Its room structure suits project coordination, community spaces, internal team communication, and ongoing conversations that need more organization than a single chat thread. The Nightly channel is intended for users who want the current development build and are comfortable using a less settled release stream than a standard stable edition.

Element Nightly is freeware for macOS and runs on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs. It requires macOS 13 Ventura or a later macOS release. The current version is 2026100301, making this build appropriate for users who want Element’s Matrix features while testing the newest available Nightly changes.
