Palaver

The first and immediate concern is, why does the app close connections when the app isn’t in focus. Sending the app to the background will close out your connections. The observation has been made by several other reviewers. Would like to hear from the developer. It also seems that the app has not received a new build in quite some time. Otherwise a solid app for the price.

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.

Does this app support gamesurge? I tried connecting and am getting an error, perhaps I am typing in incorrect info but if anyone knows how to connect to Gamesurge via ANY IRC app for Iphone, please let me know. I was able to successfully connect to Gamesurge, which was the main issue here. App looks great, I really enjoy the layout. The only things bugging me is the fact that if I leave the app running in the background for a very short amount of time, if I bring the app back up, I have to reconnect to everything, which is a bit annoying. Only other thing is the signature when you leave, it leaves a link to Palaver’s website, which I don’t want. A custom exit message could be nice, but I mostly just don’t want to see the link. Aside from this, I do enjoy the app.

Blowfish encryption is missing to this beautiful client. Without blowfish it's almost useless
