Is your feature request related to a problem?

For some unknown reason, Element Android opens my new PMs I start with it as a room instead of as a PM, so I have to start my laptop and open desktop element to fix it.

Describe the solution you'd like.

It would be really useful and convenient to be able to use the commands /converttodm /converttoroom in Element Android.

FTR We have fixed an issue about creating a DM which ends up to the room tab in Element Android 1.1.10

@bmarty That is great and the real solution, but having the option to address these issues quick, now and if they happen again in the future, from Android itself would be great.

Ideally we could also have an action on long click on a room in the room list with "Move to Direct Messages" (resp. "Move to Rooms").
As this is probably an action which will not be used a lot, it could be also placed a bit deeper in the room settings in the "Advanced" section

Please add those commands in android app too.

Is this being implemented?

This would also help with bridges not always classifying DMs correctly and fixing this for people without a desktop application.

Also when migrating accounts (by inviting new account to the room and leaving from old account) DMs can be flagged as multi people rooms. And then to have a native voice call we has to enter Element Desktop/Web and type /converttodm command.
