Ratings and reviews

So far it's been phenomenal for xdcc downloads. it's even more reliable than mirc on my computer. HOWEVER! One massive issue is that I can't get it to save directly to my sd card, I have to save to phone and then transfer it over. My sd card is not formatted to be internal, but it should be capable with coping with that. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!! than this app would be flawless.

Use it for xdcc downloads of large files, best on the play store by far. They recently fixed a download bug after I left a review about it, so they definitely have earned this 5 stars in my eyes. Unfortunately a stopped or incomplete download makes it impossible to resume in my experience, but deleting the file and starting over works. If resume was fixed this would be 6/5 stars

It's functional, but there are issues. Disconnect didn't work. I could only disconnect by removing the server. The Identity system requires a new identity for every connection if you connect to a ZNC with multiple networks. Nick completion only works at the beginning of the line. It's fine for basic use, but it won't supplant Revolution IRC for my use.
