Not really sure about iOS, but I was thinking of android - there was the old element(riot), the current version(riotx?) and now the proof of concept.

Sorry but I am still very confused about the naming, what is Element X, what is Element R. I am assuming Element web and mobile are the current stable versions but what's the difference between R and X is still not clear to me.

How? Are you going to keep developing both synapse and dendrite or are you planning to sunset synapse eventually and only develop dendrite? How close is dendrite to being stable and any plans for making migration guides between the two?
