### Before the release
- [ ] Weblate sync, fix lint issue if any (in a dedicated PR)
- [ ] Check the update of the store descriptions (using Google Translate if necessary) to ensure that the changes are acceptable to be published to the stores.
- [ ] While Weblate is locked, and after the PR from Weblate has been merged, handle all the TODOs in the main `strings.xml` file
- [ ] Run the script `./tools/release/pushPlayStoreMetaData.sh`. You can check in the GooglePlay console the Activity log to check the effect.
### Do the release
- [ ] Make sure `develop` and `main` are up to date (git pull)
- [ ] Checkout develop and create a release with gitflow, branch name `release/1.2.3`
- [ ] Check the crashes from the PlayStore
- [ ] Check the rageshake with the current dev version: https://github.com/matrix-org/element-android-rageshakes/labels/1.2.3-dev
- [ ] Run the integration test, and especially `UiAllScreensSanityTest.allScreensTest()`
- [ ] Create an account on matrix.org and do some smoke tests that the sanity test does not cover like: 1-1 call, 1-1 video call, Jitsi call for instance
- [ ] Run towncrier: `towncrier --version v1.2.3 --draft` (remove `--draft` do write the file CHANGES.md)
- [ ] Check that the folder `changelog.d` is empty. It can happen that some remaining files stay here
- [ ] Check the file CHANGES.md consistency. It's possible to reorder items (most important changes first) or change their section if relevant. Also an opportunity to fix some typo, or rewrite things
- [ ] Add file for fastlane under ./fastlane/metadata/android/en-US/changelogs
- [ ] (optional) Push the branch and start a draft PR (will not be merged), to check that the CI is happy with all the changes.
- [ ] Finish release with gitflow, delete the draft PR (if created)
- [ ] Push `main` and the new tag `v1.2.3` to origin
- [ ] Checkout `develop`
- [ ] Increase version (versionPatch + 2) in `./vector/build.gradle`

- [ ] Wait for [Buildkite](https://buildkite.com/matrix-dot-org/element-android/builds?branch=main) to build the `main` branch.
- [ ] Run the script `~/scripts/releaseElement.sh`. It will download the APKs from Buildkite check them and sign them.
- [ ] Install the APK on your phone to check that the upgrade went well (no init sync, etc.)

### Once tested and validated internally
