Reviews for CoreIRC

Finally got it to connect, can see the channel list, but nothing happens after joining many channels. There is no error message. nothing.

Great app but confusing at the start. You need to add your server to the left side tab before you can use it. It is in the settings of the server, with a slider. I would love to see a scripting language!

All core features are here. Very robust and reliable even when used in background. Missing correct timestamps in rollback messages. eg. when using a bouncer.

Really needs an import option to bring irc network settings across from the go version Please add an option to sort channels in alphabetical order too, Thanks

Use it for xdcc downloads of large files, best on the play store by far. They recently fixed a download bug after I left a review about it, so they definitely have earned this 5 stars in my eyes. Unfortunately a stopped or incomplete download makes it impossible to resume in my experience, but deleting the file and starting over works. If resume was fixed this would be 6/5 stars

Definitely the best mobile IRC client I've found. With a clean (and customizable) interface and smooth DCC transfer functions, there's very little in CoreIRC that disapoints. Definitely worth the money to take your networks on the go.

This is looking pretty good so far. I was stumped for a while as to how to connect after editing a server. The method is not intuitive, but stumbled upon how to connect after much trial and error.

It's functional, but there are issues. Disconnect didn't work. I could only disconnect by removing the server. The Identity system requires a new identity for every connection if you connect to a ZNC with multiple networks. Nick completion only works at the beginning of the line. It's fine for basic use, but it won't supplant Revolution IRC for my use.

overall a pretty good irc app, but i have noticed a few issues with the scrollback, specifically that sometimes, each time a new message is sent it scrolls back up to some previous message, until i force close the app and restart it. also, when the keyboard is opened it does not automatically scroll to line up the latest message with it. It's a bit annoying but doesn't make it unusable imo. ive also run into similar issues with other android irc clients though. (pixel 6, android 12)

Missing messages from ZNC. Receiving messages reliably is the most basic expectation. And this fails to deliver it. I know it's not my bouncer, because I have no such problem connecting to it from my workstation and receiving every message.

First time I'm paying for an IRC client. Free phone clients are either buggy or lacking in features. CoreIRC seems good enough for my needs. Worth the money. Since I can't find a help #,I'd suggest a few tweaks/issues to be fixed. 1) Can't seem to autocomplete/tab nicks mid sentence. 2)Time stamps of znc doesn't sync with the client. It's important. Otherwise all the previous messages from the buffer appear with the present time stamp. 3) I faced issues initially while editing the port number.

Generally a good app, but it doesn't attempt to authenticate with SASL until too late in the connection process, so I've already failed to join registered-user-only channels by then and I get kicked off my nick. SASL authentication needs to happen before setting nick or joining channels or certain situations will fail. With this adjustment I think it would be excellent.

There is a bug that bothers me a lot. When I modify a server and go back. I get out of the application. It also lacks the possibility to make a backup of the configuration. Also not possible to click to join a channel when I click on channel name(start with #), not possible to change the background colour. Not possible to copy a part of a message in the clipboard.

So far I am happy with the app hence giving a 5 star rating. I would love if I could get the file opened or a prompt were given to choose with which app I would like to open that file by tapping the notification after receiving it whenever I download any file. But currently, the notifications of some file has been downloaded are static and not bringing me to the opened files directly rather it has no effect when I tap those and I can only slide/swipe the notifications to get rid of them.

Seems good so far, the most stable irc app for android I've tried, & the notifications actually work. I would rate it higher if you could change the accent colour to anything but the horrid bright pink. That alone is almost enough reason to uninstall it for me if I could find any other irc app that didn't constantly disconnect & fail to send notifications. Update - Glad colour option is being worked on! Currently only changes top bar in light theme. Send button, toggles and dark mode still pink

Really nice interface. Got it working. Making changes to server settings doesn't update until you force close the app and start it again, that's why I was having issues connecting. I don't see an easy way to reply to comments in the chat, this should be added. Don't like that I have to type /quote to use server commands.

Great app one you get the hang of it. Only thing i dont like about it is most of the time you have to force close it in settings because the exit option under the pull down tab grays out for some unknown reason and wont let you exit the app. Also hitting dissconnect does nothing. Ive tried on more than one device, and have the very same issue.

So far it's been phenomenal for xdcc downloads. it's even more reliable than mirc on my computer. HOWEVER! One massive issue is that I can't get it to save directly to my sd card, I have to save to phone and then transfer it over. My sd card is not formatted to be internal, but it should be capable with coping with that. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!! than this app would be flawless.

Hi, I wish each nick had their own color, there was a choice for the default color other than green, and away messages were grouped together like the part/join ones are. Oh and when a colored message is sent, the color goes beyond what the end of color is intended to be to the end of the message. In this case there is a "]" character where the end of the color is, so it might be interference? Thank you.

The UI is pretty weird/unintuitive. And I still haven't figured out what the "identity" is, which seems to have nothing to do with the IRC protocol and also apparently can't be changed for the server once you set it. I couldn't get CoreIRC to connect to my znc bouncer. It keeps reconnecting, except on one of the four networks. And one of the four network connections reported to still be connected forever when it wasn't. I'm able to connect fine on igloo and AndroIRC.
