    I think it’s supported but not turned on by default. At least when I tried conversations recently it was not default in one on ones, and not available at all in group chats.

      Odd, for me it defaults in 1:1 chats, when was the last time you tried?

      For group chats it AFAIK is enabled automatically if the group-chat creator has made the right settings for it to work (OMEMO can not work with pseudonymous chats and history disabled).

        OMEMO works fine in a private group chat, it’s disabled in public channels as there’s no point doing encryption there.

          If the other side of the 1:1 chat uses a client that does not support OMEMO by default, then something like that can happen. Did you at least get the big red warning sign that the 1:1 chat isn’t encrypted?
