Palaver IRC

Does not support split screen on iPad, disconnects from servers if I switch to other applications for more than a few seconds, doesn’t have auto join of channels.

I love Palaver. But after latest update input Japanese character are entered several times. Please fix this.

I use this every day. One of the better iOS IRC clients there is, particularly because of ZNC bouncer support to tackle connection timeouts. Also, if you have the means, it will happily stay active for hours in the background thanks to background manager on modified devices. However, it's not quite iOS 7 friendly just yet, and the promised update is taking months. Occasionally a new line will not appear until 'return' is pressed or the chat history is dragged up or touched. The channel list is not hideable, but I am told that this feature will be present in the new version. Looking forward to it soon!

I paid the fee to check it out. I don’t get it at all. What’s it supposed to do?

It’s great that it has znc capabilities and I have it setup with linuxserver.io docker-znc image, which includes the palaver extension. But I have to dock palaver one star because it doesn’t have Face ID or a passcode to secure the app. Maybe I’m paranoid, but I don’t want someone using my phone to have access to my IRC.

This is a great app, but I wish above any other feature, that I could automatically sort my channels without having to manually drag the channels around.

It’s really easy to use. The only issue is always be disconnected. But I give 5 star for effort. Many thanks.

So, look. I gave it five stars on a curve. The rest of the field is... lacking. Palaver’s ZNC support is great. The UI is standard iOS, which is good. I’d love for custom themes, or at least the ability to customize elements within a theme. Still, it’s easily the best IRC client on the App Store.

Can you make a keyboard shortcut to focus on the input box though? This is almost completely navigable with keyboard only, except for sending messages 🤠

I like the App so far- aesthetically pleasing, ergonomical, fairly straightforward. HOWEVER, I wish it had a function or option to REMAIN CONNECTED when I go use another app or do something else with my phone. For $1.99, I think I should get that.
