This is a great irc client. So many thoughtful features like customizable light & dark mode, ability to automate nick password login, intuitive swiping between tabs. Completely free with zero ads. Here are my questions /nitpicks: I have "keep logs" turned on, but don't know where to find them? Inline browser does not always render imgur links. It's not always obvious when someone has PMed me. The notification sound is the same as for regular messages, and the new tab pops up in the background.

We need auto-reconnect when connection is lost. Also whenever the app minimizes to status bar, it notifies me and it does the same thing after I turn the screen off, even if there's no new messages. I'm using a XIAOMI Redmi 6A, Android 9.1 and MIUI 10. Edit: just found out that it's the "Notification Chat - Live messages in the notification tray" to send false notifications.

Couldn't get connected to a server. User interface makes NO sense.

Still one of the best clients I've ever seen. What I miss is text selection (copy/paste). One more thing I'd love To see is possibility to search for logs and read them in other programs. I.E. file some file manager and text editor.

unable to set up my server, it says username required but most IRC servers don't require a username (only nickname). Same settings that work in every IRC client don't work in this one. It fails to connect due to "incorrect password". I have my own IRC server which is not set up with a password. Total garbage...

Sorts channels alphabetically, which is a big plus. However, I can't seem to be able to have channels grouped by server – they're all sorted together.
