AndroIRC Android

IRC client for Android

When Internet connections were a lot slower than they are now, there was already a chat service that was incredibly fast. It is IRC, which through its client and its servers provides dozens of chat rooms on a minimalist interface that enables real-time functioning while consuming very few resources. You can also access it from your phone thanks to AndroIRC, an IRC client for Android smartphones.

Hundreds of thousands of users are waiting to chat with you.

Main features

• Similar graphic appearance to mIRC.
• Launch the app and set up channels to join.
• File transfer (DCC).
• Compact mode to reduce screen use.
• Verifies nick.
• Copy-paste function.
• Connect to multiple servers.
• Keyboard shortcuts.
• Easy access to regular IRC user functions.
• Easy-to-use menu for kicking, banning, and changing privileges.
• Proxy support for FiSH and SSL certificates.

After the boom in instant messaging apps like WhatsApp, broadcast lists, and groups on Telegram and other apps, these kinds of chat apps have become a bit redundant. Nevertheless, this is a good service if we have a penchant for nostalgia or are looking for a very specific kind of channel.

Requirements and additional information:

• Minimum operating system requirements: Android 2.3.
• Offers in-app purchases.
