* Add a multi-account feature flag
The flag lives in Developer options. Switching it on arms the upcoming one-time multi-account announcement, whose seen state defaults to true so fresh installs never see it.
* Add an Add account row to Settings behind the multi-account flag
The row sits in its own section under the user status, as in the designs. Tapping it is routed up to the settings flow, which ignores it until the add account flow exists.
* Remove the Developer options view model tests
The Developer options screen is excluded from coverage, so these tests don't add value.
* Apply review suggestions to the multi-account flag
- Order the multi-account requirements in DeveloperOptionsProtocol to match the screen's sections.
- Drop the redundant "Experimental" from the toggle's subtitle.
* Start message selection from the Forward action
Behind the multi-select developer option, choosing Forward on a message
now starts a selection with that message checked, instead of the
dedicated Select menu action which is removed. Only forwardable
messages can be selected: remote, decrypted, non-redacted events that
aren't state, unsupported, poll or live location items.
The chrome follows the Figma exploration: the room header stays, an X
in the trailing toolbar position ends the selection, rows show only the
checkbox (no highlight, 10pt gap to the bubble), and the composer is
replaced by a single primary "Forward N messages" button. The limits
are now 10 messages into 5 rooms.
Tapping the button forwards the selection in timeline order, never in
the order the messages were tapped. MessageForwardingItem carries
several contents and the forwarding screen sends them one after the
other per room, reporting a single error toast on partial failures.
The selection is kept while the forwarding screen is open so cancelling
it returns to the selection; it is cleared by the flow coordinator once
the messages are sent, or by the X in the timeline.
New plural action_forward_messages lives in Untranslated for now;
action_select and screen_room_selection_count are no longer used.
* Tidy the selection code after review
Reuse ToolbarButton's cancel role for the selection's toolbar item so it
matches the other screens on every OS version, and disable the room
header while selecting so the room details can't cover the selection.
Move the forwardable/selected item helpers next to the existing
nonisolated array extension, drop the unused MessageForwardingItem
initialisers and the single-item makeForwardingItem overload, and
simplify the forwarding loop now that a room either sends or isn't
reachable.
The action bar preview builds its own view model instead of putting
the shared mock into selection mode for every later preview, and a
test locks that Forward keeps forwarding directly in the pinned
timeline.
* Select messages to forward from the pinned timeline too
Forward is offered in the pinned events timeline, so with the flag on
it starts a selection there as well, with the same cancel item in the
toolbar and the same forward button at the bottom. Forwarding from
that sheet already dismisses the whole sheet, so the selection is
discarded with it. Only the media timelines keep forwarding a single
item directly.
* Confirm with a toast when messages are forwarded to several rooms
When a single room is picked the flow opens it, which is confirmation
enough. When several rooms are picked the user stays in the origin room,
so a "Messages forwarded" toast tells them it worked, as in the designs.
The new screen_room_message_forwarded / screen_room_messages_forwarded
strings live in Untranslated for now.
* Apply review suggestions to multi-message forwarding
Strings
- The forward button and the multi-room toast now use the Localazy
plurals action_forward_messages and screen_room_messages_forwarded;
the toast shows the count. The Untranslated copies and the unused
action_select are gone.
Selection
- Drop the dead startSelection view action and the redundant
canSelectMessages guard; tests start a selection through Forward
like the app does.
- Remove two comments on the selection state that restated the code.
Forwarding
- After a send, clear the selection in the room and any open thread
instead of working out which one started it; only one can be
selecting at a time.
- Explain that stickers are excluded because the SDK can only forward
m.room.message content.
* Rename the timeline selection to message selection
"Selection" alone was too generic in a timeline that also has text and
room selections. The selection state, toolbar, action bar and
accessibility types, the timeline state's property, the view actions
and the public clear method now say "message selection". Private
helpers keep their short names.
* Rename MessageForwardingItem to MessageForwardingPayload
The type now carries several messages, so "item" no longer described
it. The factory method and the variables and action labels holding it
follow the new name.
We decided against changing how unread activity is rendered in the room list, so the experiment and its developer option are no longer needed.
we have also added a notification settings entry for hiding the room list gray dots.
The room list now always shows the unread notification count for highlighted rooms
and the app icon badge always uses the SDK's own unread notification count, both in
the app and in the NSE. The push payload's unread count is no longer used, so its
UNNotificationContent helper and user info key have been removed along with the
setting, its developer options toggle and the feature-disabled unit test.
Add the element-call-ios dependency and a developer option for native calls
The package carries the call UI and the matrix-rust-rtc media stack, pinned by
exact version the way the SDK is, with the local path kept commented out for
working against a checkout. Its media xcframework has no Intel simulator slice
and a package cannot say so for the projects that consume it, hence the
excluded architecture at the project level.
The developer option is off by default and nothing reads it yet. It is placed
next to the Element Call URL override, which only applies to the web view that
native calls replace.
* Add a developer option and selection mode for timeline messages
First step of the multi-select messages feature (element-meta#3255, iOS
counterpart of element-x-android#6918). Everything is gated behind the new
`messageMultiSelectEnabled` developer option and nothing changes while it
is off.
- Adds a "Select" action to the timeline item menu for remote messages in
the room, focused and thread timelines. Choosing it enters selection
mode with that message selected.
- While selecting, every bubbled row shows a checkbox on its leading edge
and tapping or long pressing a row toggles it. State events, redacted
messages, live locations, unsupported events and local echoes cannot be
selected and stay inert. Selected rows get the accent background.
- The navigation bar swaps to a Cancel button and an "N selected" title,
the back button is hidden and the composer is removed until the
selection ends (Cancel or deselecting the last item). This is the hook
where the bulk action bar will land in the next PR.
- The selection is capped at 30 messages, showing a toast when the cap
is hit, and is cleared if the developer option is switched off.
- The selection state lives in `TimelineViewModel` so room and thread
timelines share the behaviour without extra plumbing.
Includes unit tests for the menu action gating and the selection state
transitions, plus RoomScreen and bubble styler previews for the new state.
* Harden the timeline selection mode after review
- Reconcile the selection with timeline updates: selected messages that
become unselectable (e.g. redacted) are dropped, and the selection is
cleared when the timeline is swapped for a focused or live one, so the
count can never refer to items that aren't on screen.
- Keep the composer mounted but collapsed while selecting, instead of
removing it from the hierarchy. This preserves the draft and composer
mode and avoids the disappear side effects. The footer with the identity
warnings stays visible.
- Give the long press modifier an `isEnabled` flag so the recogniser is
disabled while selecting, rather than only skipping the action while
still animating and buzzing.
- Gate the Mac context menu on the selection like the other gestures.
- VoiceOver: a selectable bubble becomes a button carrying the selected
trait whose default action toggles it, non-selectable rows lose their
message actions while selecting, and reactions, thread summaries and the
checkbox are hidden from the accessibility tree in selection mode.
* Stop voice message recordings when entering selection mode
The composer is collapsed rather than removed while selecting, so an
in-progress recording would otherwise keep the microphone open out of
sight. Entering the selection now stops the recording, which moves the
composer to the preview state so the message is still there to play or
send once the selection ends. Playback of voice messages is unaffected.
* Use the translated strings for the message selection mode
The selection strings have been imported to Localazy, so the untranslated
placeholders are dropped in favour of `action_select`,
`screen_room_maximum_messages_selected` and the `screen_room_selection_count`
plural. Only these keys are taken from the download to keep the change
focused.
* Apply review suggestions to the message selection mode
Addresses the first review round on the selection mode:
- Undecryptable messages are no longer selectable, as none of the bulk
actions can be taken on them from the single item menu either.
- Renames for clarity: the menu action is `selectMessages` (leaving room
for a future `selectText`), the view action is `startSelection`, the
state exposes `contains(_:)`, `limit` and `isAtLimit`, and the composer
collapsing modifier is `collapsedInPlace(_:)`.
- `canSelectMessages` uses a switch expression, the selection state doc
comment refers to a feature flag rather than Labs, the recording helper
doc describes only what it does, and `toggleSelection()` moves below
the subviews.
* Keep the accessibility labels of timeline items while selecting
The selection mode used to replace each item's accessibility body with a
plain combined element, dropping the sender name representation and the
gallery label. The per item labelling now always applies, and the selection
only changes the interaction on top of it: the message actions are offered
as before, or the item becomes a button carrying the selected trait whose
default action toggles it. Polls and galleries collapse into a single
element only while selecting, as their children are inert then.
* Keep the timeline types within the lint limits after rebasing
The redaction reason work on develop grew the menu action handler and the
timeline view model right up to SwiftLint's size limits, so the selection
additions tipped them over. The `selectMessages` case now shares the
`downloadMedia` break and the selection flag subscription lives in the
selection extension.
* Fix the snapshot regressions from the selection mode
- Drop `geometryGroup()` from the bubble row: it stopped the avatar
placeholder initial from rendering, which showed up as a mismatch in
every timeline item snapshot.
- Collapse the composer with opacity instead of clipping, as the clip also
removed the composer background from the home indicator area while the
composer was fully visible.
- Keep the timeline item menu preview on the default flag-off state so the
existing menu snapshots stay valid.
- Record the new "Selecting" room screen and "Selection" bubble snapshots
on the same iPhone SE simulator CI uses.
* Add a Mentions room list filter
Adds a new filter chip to the room list that shows only rooms with
unread mentions, using the new mentions room list filter from the
Rust SDK (matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk branch matthew/mentions-filter).
The SDK version needs bumping to a release that includes the new
filter kind before this can build against the released components.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Order the room list filters by expected usage
Move Favourites ahead of People and Rooms so the more commonly used
filters (Unreads, Mentions, Favourites) sit first in the chip row —
Rooms and Invites are used rarely enough that it's fine for them to
wrap off the side.

dds sending of multi-media "gallery" messages, gated behind the new galleryEnabled developer option (Developer Options → Room, off by default). Rendering of received galleries ships in a separate PR.
Wires sendGallery through TimelineProxy/TimelineController onto the SDK's Timeline.sendGallery.
MediaUploadPreviewScreen sends selected items as one gallery when the flag is on.
Co-authored with the original author of #5601.
NOTE: This PR allows to send gallery messages, but they won't be rendered without the gallery timeline item PR.
Adds the ability to send a gallery message (multiple attachments in one message)
via the media upload preview, wired through the timeline controller/proxy to the
SDK's sendGallery. Gated by a `galleryEnabled` developer flag (default off),
matching Element X Android — with the flag off, attachments are sent as
individual messages as before.

* Add a developer flag for the search tab
Introduces a globalSearchEnabled user preference (off by default) with a toggle in Developer Options, used to gate the new search experience.
* Support search role tabs in the tab coordinator
Migrates the NavigationTabCoordinator to SwiftUI's value-based Tab API and adds an isSearch option so a tab can adopt the iOS 26 .search role, which detaches it into the trailing search button in the tab bar.
* Moves room search to a new screen
Adds a new screen that filters the alternate room summary provider as you type, shows an empty state, and lists matching rooms with their matrix identifier. Supports hardware keyboard selection (arrow keys to move through results, return to open) by reaching into the system search field.
* Present search in a dedicated tab
Adds the search tab to the chats flow on iOS 26 when the flag is enabled, rendered as the detached .search role button. The Cmd+K shortcut now selects this tab, and the home screen's inline search is hidden while the tab is available.
* Remove the old global search screen
The dedicated search tab replaces the Cmd+K floating window, so the GlobalSearchScreen, its window plumbing in the WindowManager, and its presentation in the chats flow are all removed.
* Enable Swift 6.2 with default main actor isolation for the app target
Turn on SWIFT_VERSION 6.2, SWIFT_APPROACHABLE_CONCURRENCY and SWIFT_DEFAULT_ACTOR_ISOLATION = MainActor for the ElementX target, matching the NSE and Share Extension (which already use 6.2 without the main actor default).
# Conflicts:

* Update the code generation templates for Swift 6

* Make the data layer and services nonisolated and Sendable
Annotate the value-type models, Rust SDK proxy wrappers, timeline item graph, settings, logging and NSE-shared types as nonisolated, and conform the service protocols to Sendable so their existentials can cross isolation boundaries. These types run off the main actor and no longer inherit the target's default main actor isolation.
* Adopt the new isolation across call sites, mocks and signatures
Update call sites, closure signatures and mock configuration helpers to match the nonisolated/Sendable data layer, including the main actor isolated mock inits and the @Sendable filter on recentlyVisitedRooms.
^ Conflicts:
^ ElementX/Sources/Services/SecureBackup/SecureBackupController.swift
* Remove redundant @MainActor annotations
With the app target defaulting to main actor isolation, the explicit @MainActor on view models, coordinators, views and their protocols is no longer required.
* Fix concurrency hotspots surfaced by the migration
Resolve the room summary main-thread deadlock by moving diff processing onto AsyncStreams, add the SDKListener.onMainActor FIFO bridge for SDK callbacks, hop KVO/timer/UIKit callbacks to the main actor via assumeIsolated, add isolated deinits, and apply the few justified nonisolated(unsafe) escapes for queue-confined Apple APIs.
* Fix the unit tests for Swift 6 concurrency
Hop the waitForConfirmation body onto the caller's actor (Swift Testing runs confirmation closures off-actor), and adjust the affected suites and async signatures.
* offload diffs on concurrent threads instead of main actor
* make room info protocols sendable
* use a task group for fetching data so that everything runs concurrently in the TextRoomTimelineView when getting the preview.
* use the generic onMainActor implementation, which already makes a stream and send the continuation on the main actor.

Removes the ServiceLocator singleton and instead directly injects the dependencies it was holding for more control over instantiation of the various component subtrees and better visibility over how they're being used.
This will use an underlying SDK method and send a private read receipt plus a fully read marker in every single room the user is part of. It will most likely be a long operation that will get rate limited so the task is set to run detached for as long as it takes.
