Verified that my DM rooms have the m.direct flag set using devtools in element desktop, and have tried logging out and in again 2 times in element x android, as well as wiping the app storage.

creating a new DM in element desktop, it popped up as a room, not a DM, in element X android. it correctly showed up as a DM in element dekstop.

There is a possibility that the content of your account data m.direct is malformed, and in this case, EX just ignores the content and consider that there are no DM in your account.

In Element Web, you can in any room type /devtools in the composer then click Enter, then click on Explore Account data, then m.direct. Please ensure that all the userIds and roomIds have correct format. If this is not the case, you can edit the content to fix the error, and it should magically fix the issue on EXA.
