Palaver IRC for Positive User Reviews
✓ Best IRC appI've tried the others, and this seems to be the best of the bunch. Looks great aswell..Version: 1.0
✓ Great to use with ZNCWith ZNC, you can use IRC just like an instant messenger. As others said, it lacks a feature that keeps chat logs after restarting, so you will see unread counts on the channel list every time you launch Palaver if you don't clear buffers after replay. It's a minor thing, though. There are no better IRC client in iOS as of now..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Does what I wantConnects to my bouncer. Presumably will keep getting updated since it’s for-pay..Version: 2.9.1
✓ Name auto complete fixed! (I think)One of my biggest issues with Palaver in the past was the name auto compete interfering with regular typing, but that seems to be fixed now. Looks like the update also addressed some other things like bouncer buffer repeating but I haven't tested that out yet. Main thing left I wish it had was an in app browser to quickly view links without being kicked out of the app..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Best irc client on iOS?Probably the best irc client I've found for iOS. Theme support is fantastic, hopefully we'll be able to add more or modify these ourselves at some point..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Works really well with weechat relayI'm using palaver with weechat as an IRC relay and everything works really well. I'm impressed. I've tried several other clients for iOS and none of them were usable at all. This one is awesome!.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Best IRC app on iOSWithout a doubt the best client and I trust there will be some great updates in the future too. Super app!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Excellent client for the priceThis is a really slick client. I love the way it looks (very iOS-y, 10/10 btw), the way it loads, and the way there is a level of "hackability." I've never had to pay for a mobile IRC client before but after seeing the price of other clients and the departure of others, I feel comfortable paying for this one. Will definitely recommend to my friends..Version: 2.8.4
✓ Great app, a lot of potentialGreat mobile IRC app. Hardly any glitches, runs smooth, it's layout/UI is perfect for IOS. It could improve though. Adding the ability to implement scripts and add color on regular what you type out. Also adding the options to see the list of private channels on a server and use command: /list Great programming though..Version: 1.1.2
✓ App hangs when viewing people is a roomThis didn't happen before I upgraded to iPhone 6 with iOS 8 but now if I browse the "People" in a chat room for longer than about 10 seconds the whole app bombs out and my phone goes back to the home screen. Please fix asap. Otherwise as far as features goes this app still knocks it out of the ball park for irc apps..Version: 2.0.0
✓ This is the best irc clientI have been using rooms, limechat, colloquy, and anything I could get my hands on. I was looking for a client with ZNC integration and this one fits the bill fantastically. It is a super fast app and I haven't had any issues with it so far..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Easily the best IRC on iOS.I've tried so many different IRC apps but none of them are too good. This one gives you access to IRC without any hassle. It supports SASL NickServ and ZNC passwords right in the settings. There are great themes for the IRC area. Swipe to delete channels and other stuff. It can do image upload easily through imm.io. It integrates with iOS notification centre well so you can get messages on your lock screen. The implementation is better than most desktop clients. This is an outstanding IRC app. Hats off to the creator..Version: 1.1
✓ Amazing little clientThis client has ZNC support where the disconnect and reconnect are seamless, which is nice since iOS and iPadOS limit background connections. The in app link and image preview feature is great too..Version: 2.10.3
✓ IncredibleI don't usually write reviews because I'm lazy...but this one is warranted. This irc client destroys the competition. I had been using colloquy for months and was losing my mind with how bad it was (no notifications or severely delayed notifications, message syncing problems, etc). This app solves that and with a much cleaner interface. Thank you whoever you are who made this app..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Used to be 1 Star!I was blown away at how quickly the issue was addressed - only a few days! It's rare that you get that kind of support for customers. Five stars, totally a fan!! ------------------ Old review: I normally love this app! But the most recent update makes it so that now every time I open a channel it crashes. Will change the rating once it's fixed..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Excellent app, works great!The app works great, looks clean, supports ZNC, and has notifications! I was a bit hesitant to choose Palaver at first because it had less reviews than the other apps on the market. I am very pleased with my decision, and it seems the developers are still actively working on it! My only suggestion would be to allow us to choose a notification tone for when we receive a message. Currently we're forced to hear the default iPhone notification tone, which I don't use on my phone because I do not like it. I hope a feature like this is added sometime. This small issue isn't enough to bump it down from 5 stars though. Great app!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ ZNC SupportThe app is fairly basic, but looks nice and is easy to setup and use. I was able to connect it to my znc server in about 30 seconds after downloading this app. Seems to work well with znc so far and I haven't seen any other apps that are compatible with znc..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Best IRC AppLiterally the best IRC app I’ve ever used for any platform ever, and I’ve been a user of IRC for nearly 20 years. If I could pay for this app all over again I would.Version: 2.10.0
✓ Simple,beautiful,useful.It’s really easy to use. The only issue is always be disconnected. But I give 5 star for effort. Many thanks..Version: 2.10.2
✓ Best irc appThis 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..Version: 2.10.3
✓ Bugs fixed, nice clientA really nice client full of good features but isn't the kitchen sink. No major bugs outstanding and the developer listens to the users..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Extremely frustrating to type2.1.1: Palaver has slowly been getting better at working with iOS autocorrect and name completion. The past few updates have made typing messages significantly better, although there are a few minor issues left. 2.0: Ever since the major 2.0 update there have been a bunch of extremely annoying bugs while typing messages. The way Palaver tries to autocomplete names interferes with the iOS keyboard's own predictive typing making it very frustrating to use. Now in the latest version, it keeps screwing around with what I type and adds in a bunch of nonsense two character words followed by a space instead of whatever I actually typed. Then I have to go back and delete the jibberish and attempt to retype everything, but it usually ends up running into the same stupid bug and screws up my input again. It makes it almost impossible to send a coherent message sometimes. Fix the buggy autocomplete, please..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Active developers, daily use app.“Your app lit my cat on fire. It’s good enough that I realized… the cat can suffer.” Former Mutter user, switched to Palaver without hesitation after witnessing the developers responsiveness and passion within their support channel. ⌘K was a suggestion of mine; thanks!.Version: 2.10.0
✓ Very nice, minor issues.I love it. I have it working with ZNC but there are little details that annoy me. It'd be great if the client cached all recent messages and had better sync support for buffers. The way it works now is that the client will reload the ZNC buffer from start to finish. It'd be nice if it just displayed the newest messages since it was last activated so it didn't have to go through it's whole draw-in routine. The message count is also reset to whatever the buffer pushes. It is blind to the number of messages I already had displayed since it was last opened. There is also a small bug where background channels will not scroll to the bottom of the list. The foreground channel scrolls down as expected, the others I have to manually scroll down which can be a pain if you have a large buffer. All in all, this is a really nice client. A desktop client would be very much appreciated with similar ZNC integration..Version: 1.1
✓ Best irc app on iOS.What can I say. Nice irc app. Works well with ZNC. just would love to see it use iCloud for configuration settings so I can send account details to all endpoints..Version: 2.0.1
✓ A simply brilliant IRC Client!After searching for many months to find a decent IRC client I have found it, this is app is fantastic. It is well designed, functions greatly and has not had a single connection problem. It is honestly perfect, my only recommendation, is that you buy this over any other client, I love it!!.Version: 1.1
✓ ZNC+Palaver = Dreams come trueComing back to test and... WOW good job guys!.Version: 2.3.0
✓ It’s the best we’ve gotSo, 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..Version: 2.10.2
✓ Masterrace IRC appBefore the major app overhaul, Palaver was already my favorite IRC client but I sometimes found that I needed to use others for certain features. That's all changed now and with each update, Palaver just gets better and better. I would say that the best part is the developers' responsiveness to feedback. Literally every time I message their twitter support, they give a timely response and then fix issues and implement my suggested improvements in the very next update. Overall, amazing app and amazing support..Version: 2.1.0
✓ Even better than before.I can't say enough about how great this application is. This is by far the best implementation of IRC for iOS. The developer is active and keeps pushing out great updates, the design is refreshing and elegant. If you need an IRC client. This is it! 150% totally worth the price..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Best IRC client for iPhoneI've tried a variety of them in the last few days (can I name Colloquy and Limechat here?) and Palaver blows them out of the water - there's just no reason to use anything else..Version: 2.3.0
✓ AlmostUsed to use colloquy for the built in bouncer support as I was too lazy to setup znc. Well colloquy got super buggy and continues to have terrible support for their bugs. I finally dropped colloquy in favor of znc and a different client. Palaver doesn't fail. I get all my notifications (unlike colloquy), it's simple and easy to use for a hard irc user as myself. My only issue is it lacks logging, requiring me to keep a high znc buffer. It's not actual logging it's missing as obviously znc is for that purpose, but it clears chats every time palaver times out or I quit the app. Palaver is well aware, and they ensured me it will be solved in 2.0. For the time being.. still -1 star, but I'm not going to be switching clients anytime soon. Palaver is still the best irc app on the iPhone (and I've used them all).Version: 1.1.4
✓ Best IRC app!I've been using Palaver every day since October 2014. It has made my commutes so much more bearable, and it is well worth the small price. It's probably my favorite iOS app ever. The interface is beautiful, the standard features are all there and work great: ZNC support, push notifications, and more recently nickname autocomplete. One unique feature I really love is the setting that changes the interface color based on screen brightness. None of my other apps do that, and I wish it was a more common feature. The standard bright theme is great for the daytime, and then when I get frantic pings at 4am because a server went down, I don't have to burn my eyes to read the messages! If you're looking for an IRC app, you can stop looking now. Get Palaver, it's awesome..Version: 2.3.0
✓ Best IRC Client in the App StoreI've scoured the App Store for an IRC client, I use IRC heavily and run ZNC on my server at home. This is the cleanest, most pleasant IRC experience of any I've tried. It's fast, auto uploads images to imgur, properly handles ZNC integration and keeps the interface out of the way. The only complaints I can think of are: 1. (Trivial) The network heading doesn't feel design-wise as if it is a container for the rooms/messages inside. Perhaps use the lighter gray for the heading and the darker gray for the rooms. 2. (Minor) It would be helpful if the message text was not auto-capitalized OR the nick autocomplete lower cased nicks on completion. I find myself editing autocompleted nicks to lower case. 3. If I open the app and connect and then need to immediately close the app (for whatever reason), I'll end up with several notifications as buffer replays. Perhaps, disable notifications until after buffer replay. (This might have been fixed in the latest release).Version: 2.1.1
✓ Search no more, this is the best one!Awesome!.Version: 1.1
✓ Perfect, but...I do not know what to say about this, totally best IRC client on the Store!!! But one con, when I get into the network (quakenet) I don't see the qwebirc, or the thing where it leads you to after you enter your nickname. Please add that. Thanks.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Decent app, great developer!I appreciate the developer’s supportiveness. I had trouble getting the ZNC-push module to work for me. It turned out to be an SSL certificate trust issue on my server, and Kyle pointed me in the right direction to get things working again..Version: 2.10.0
✓ Best IRC client period! Read...I been on IRC for 18 years. I used a ton of clients, from windows OS to Linux/UNIX. Shell based and etc. Wrote scripts for clients. I also used many IRC clients for iOS since first one ever came out and always had some disappointments, there was always something missing even if it was paid ones. This app is great, very simple and very clean GUI. All the features you can possible need and more if you want. Hands down, the best IRC client for iOS since iOS was released. I want to thank these guys for releasing it for free with no ads and doing such a great job. I would be more then happy to actually pay for this. Please keep up a great work and keep this app alive. Twitter: vysniukas, Freenode: ertz.Version: 2.6.0
✓ Simple but effectiveThis client is missing some of the bells and whistles of Colloquy Mobile. What it really has going for it is that it's getting regular attention from its developers. It doesn't crash as often as Colloquy. One unique feature I find very nice is that Palaver de-dupes messages coming in from ZNC buffer playback. This proves especially handy when you have turned off "clear buffer after playback" in ZNC. I can happily live with issues as long as an app gets regular releases..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Pretty goodCan you make a keyboard shortcut to focus on the input box though? This is almost completely navigable with keyboard only, except for sending messages 🤠.Version: 2.10.1
✓ Best Mutter replacementFor a long time I used Mutter IRC to access IRC through my ZNC bouncer on my iPhone. Mutter reached its end of life this past summer, and I was left in want of the features that Mutter had, particularly a ZNC push notification module. Palaver works great as a Mutter replacement! It has a ZNC push notification module that works just like Mutter’s did. It’s design is intuitive and sleek. My only qualm with it was resolved in Palaver’s most recent update—it now supports the buffextras ZNC module, so joins/parts read correctly on playback!.Version: 2.10.0
✓ Soooo close!I finally gave up on colloquy for this and it was well worth it. The app is functional, looks nice, and so far hasn't crashed once. The one thing I really wish this would do is keep chat logs even after the app quits. If someone says something and then the app in the background automatically quits, I'll never see what the person said! Other than this pretty minor thing, I love this client..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Palaver is the best mobile IRC Client. Period.Palaver is an amazing IRC client for any device; but the fact that it sits in my pocket and allows me to have a full and rich IRC experience wherever I go is amazing. I have been an IRC addict for over 20 years and have used clients on all sorts of devices to feed my need; but nothing outside of a full computer has given me the experience that Palaver delivers. What’s more is that every concern, feature request, or modification I have wished for the author has been responsive to. The support for the client is amazing and the product is polished. The ZNC module ties a bow around this awesome gift to the IRC community..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Great ClientWas using Dump Chat which has great ZNC support, but wasn't updated for i6+ or iOS 8. Palaver shares my same complaints that I have with Dump Chat. The experience is butter smooth and works very well. I just wish for more customization options. I mean I can't even choose how I want my time stamp displayed. I for one hate a 24 hour time display. I prefer a 12 hour format displaying am/pm. It would be nice to have a persistent bar atop a channel showing the current topic. I think a smoother way of switching channels would be nice. Tapping back to go forward into another channel feels odd. Maybe some small tabs? Could be from all of this real estate I now have with the 6+. Tapping on a message in a chan does a weird flash with no feedback so not really sure what that's for. All in all the app does what it's suppose to and does it well. Keep up the great work..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Not perfect but best of the lotIts a little clunky and it could do with a few font choices but its the best of the lot.Version: 1.0
✓ Best irc on the App StoreWell worth the money 👌👌👌👌👌.Version: 2.1.0
✓ Smooth and well designed experience.I use Palaver for my iPhone and iPad and it works exceedingly smooth. Modern features are supported along with some ZNC bouncer support. Devs are also responsive..Version: 2.10.0
✓ Fantastic but crashesIn its current state, it is unusable as it crashes on boot on iOS 8 on my iPod 16gb 2013. I love it when it works!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Notifications broken?The old app let you enable notifications for all messages (until iOS kills the process after ten minutes or whatever) but the new update doesn't let me even get notifications when someone says my name...Version: 2.4.1
✓ Almost PerfectIRC is old, and let’s be honest, hasn’t kept up with the shift to mobile and multiple devices. However, Palaver combined with ZNC and the Palaver push notification module is probably as close as you can get to a fluid mobile experience. It’s a great app and offers all the feature you’d expect from irc plus a few more.Version: 2.10.1
✓ Great workNot buggy and does not crash at all. Could use a little work on multitasking length, but two thumbs up!.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Almost greatThis is so much better than Colloquy...until you try use the list of people in a channel to pm someone. Then it pm's the wrong person...embarrassing! My other concern is that it's not clear if this is being actively developed as a priority (as opposed to it being a project only occasionally touched). I hope it is, because the znc integration is top notch and so easy to enable...just connect to znc with the module enabled and done:).Version: 2.0.0
✓ Great simple IRC appA great app but it disconnects from servers after the app has been minimised for a certain period of time. As someone who likes to multitask its annoying.Version: 2.0.4
✓ I have literally bought all of the IRC apps. This is the best.Nothing will ever be as comfortable as a desktop or terminal IRC client for a heavy user. Palaver makes the fewest compromises of anything out there. The effortlessly integrated Imgur upload support alone is worth the price..Version: 2.1.0
✓ My preferred for 2+ yearsIt does pretty without skimping significantly on functionality. kudos for proactively supporting ZNC. I considered this the best IRC app on iOS over 2 years ago and after taking a long hiatus that hasn't changed. well done..Version: 2.8.3
✓ I like it BUT...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..Version: 2.10.1
