Ratings and reviews

Hi, I wish each nick had their own color, there was a choice for the default color other than green, and away messages were grouped together like the part/join ones are. Oh and when a colored message is sent, the color goes beyond what the end of color is intended to be to the end of the message. In this case there is a "]" character where the end of the color is, so it might be interference? Thank you.

Seems good so far, the most stable irc app for android I've tried, & the notifications actually work. I would rate it higher if you could change the accent colour to anything but the horrid bright pink. That alone is almost enough reason to uninstall it for me if I could find any other irc app that didn't constantly disconnect & fail to send notifications. Update - Glad colour option is being worked on! Currently only changes top bar in light theme. Send button, toggles and dark mode still pink

There is a bug that bothers me a lot. When I modify a server and go back. I get out of the application. It also lacks the possibility to make a backup of the configuration. Also not possible to click to join a channel when I click on channel name(start with #), not possible to change the background colour. Not possible to copy a part of a message in the clipboard.
