        Does xmpp have as good of looking apps for android/ios?

        I have xmpp accounts for jmp.chat and have been underwhelmed with the UX of cheogram for android.

        Ideally, I’d like a low friction and good looking ios client to have IRL friends install to chat to me on as well.

          Good olde Conversations for Android, as well as Monocles. Can’t speak for ios, I am not paid enough to touch that dev crap (literally – they expect you to pay to even touch their dev crap).

            More meant ui/ux. It just feels slightly chunky and unpolished, compared to say element, signal or WhatsApp.

            Like it feels like an older android app to me

            Edit: looking at it now, probably the inability to hide contact pictures, as I don’t have any so it’s just a bunch of colorful numbers when I open the app
