1/5Fixed
The private messages have been fixed 👍 however now unable to use the add channel button

Thehatch2002 · 31 Jul 2026
3/5Still issues.
Update: Wish user names were different colors. IRCcloud is my first choice for an IRC client.

1/5Buggy
Problems listed below are still present on the latest release. They must not care about the iPad I guess... Used to be a great app. Lots of crashes even on version 1.8.5 Screen on chat keeps getting narrower...sigh... App crashes unexpectedly ... It can reconnect but is annoying...

1/5Not working.
I'm not sure if it's the app or not, but I got this to try and run Pesterchum with a guide from Tumblr, but it won't even let me send messages. Sadly, no other apps will work either.

1/5Slowest IRC client I've ever used
The app seems like a wonderful idea… Until you try to use it to connect to a chat room. Worked very well on older versions of iOS. The developers really need to do some work to keep it current. Sometimes, it takes me up to an hour to connect to a chat room… Where as with any other client, or via the web, I connect instantly.
