Element Android (1.0.5+) supports custom Jitsi domains, similar to Element Web above.

1:1 calls, or calls between you and one other person, do not use Jitsi. Instead, those
calls work directly between clients or via TURN servers configured on the respective
homeservers.

For rooms with more than 2 joined members, when creating a Jitsi conference via call/video buttons of the toolbar (not via integration manager), Element Android will create a widget using the [wrapper](https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/blob/develop/docs/jitsi-dev.md) hosted on `app.element.io`.
The domain used is the one specified by the `/.well-known/matrix/client` endpoint, and if not present it uses the fallback defined in `config.xml` (jitsi.riot.im)
