Element X is the new version of Element. There’s currently 2 versions available on the store/fdroid since X is in beta.

The fdroid versions of Element X and Schildichat X both seemed to require me installing and setting up nfty to get notifications working.

Wow thanks for such a thorough answer!

It seems like as of right now meshtastic devices don’t have the ability to finely control LEDs/button actions to work for my use case. Which is a shame since I was hoping I could just buy a meshtastic device that has some programmable buttons inside a pre-built enclosure.

Seems like I’ll have to go down a more advanced route of getting a microcontroller, wiring up buttons and LEDs and getting a custom built enclosure.

Seems like I could get something simple like this heltec device, which is arduino compatible so I could program the buttons and LEDs, then just find/make a case.
