Linkinus for iPhone - IRC Client App Reviews

Configuration issue

Hi, When creating a new server, it is impossible to set IRC Server port/ssl (impossible to scroll and virtual keyboard do not allow it). When creating a new server, when virtual keyboard is not up, trying to set SSL crashes the App. When a server is already created, impossible to modify port/ssl. I am an happy user of Linkinus for Mac. But this current iPhone version needs to be updated. :) Thanks for the job. ;)

Not very user friendly.

Couldnt find a way to list channels on a server. Most commands must be made via the console (whois, etc) as there is no shortcut buttons. This app works well, but too limited for my taste.

Pretty much unusable for non-predefined servers

The Mac app is great but unless you are planning to use this to connect to a pre-defined IRC network (i.e. ZNC bouncer) then the iPhone version will just frustrate you. You cant type in your host address/password because they dont give you the ability to hide the keyboard. So youll start typing in the servers name but then realize that the keyboard is hiding the rest of the screen so you cant get to the other text boxes/sliders. Not sure how they let this one out the door with these issues, I guess they only QA against predefined servers. Too bad, I had high hopes.

Awesome app

Best IRC client for iPhone! Highly recommended. Отличнейший клиент, советую всем.

BEST IRC CLIENT EVER

Linkinus has done it again! As always, conceited software brings the best combination of form and function available in an IRC client for your iPhone/Touch. Rich with styles for your displaying pleasure as well as the chanop and serverop functions built in for easy use, it is a very robust client and I personally LOVE using it on my phone.

Wow

This has to be one of the best IRC clients Ive ever used on a mobile device. I cant speak highly enough about it.

Since when do devs release beta builds?

This is the worst IRC client Ive used on my iPhone. Its lacking some of the most important features all IRC clients (mobile or desktop) need to have. Sadly, this has been one of my least favorite apps from the App Store.

Rich and Robust for normal users and net admins and server ops!

For anyone looking for a feature rich irc app, this is it. Conceited took its amazing osx based client and put it on the iPhone! Tons of built in cmds, for both users and admins/server ops. Clean and sleek interface, many different styles that include embedded media! I cant wait to see what they have in-store for updates! Steal for 2.99

Best IPhone IRC APP

Way better than colloquoy, and flowchat. I have tried all 3 of these apps and this one has the best user interface and is way more intuitive than the competition. This app makes it easy to handle multiple servers and channels. Definitely worth buying..

Finally a IRC client that I like

Much to my delight a IRC client that is usable. The client is very user friendly and the interface is seem less........I waited for this IRC client and it was worth it.....its very well built and has a solid platform.....Great job

Awesome

Of all the IRC clients available on iPhone, Linkinus trumps them all. Firstly the ability to change font size and themes makes it the best looking IRC app on the iPhone, let alone on iPhone 4 where small fonts can still be readable and still look great. Conceited has done it again with a feature rich IRC app, this time for iPhone. Now I can enjoy media rich IRC on my Mac, my iPad, and my iPhone.

The worst IRC app for iPhone

The update didnt change anything. Still crashing when making a user profile. Wasnt able to connect a single time. Randomly crashes when editing channels, too. Oh yea, I was able to connect once. It crashed when joining a channel. Buy Colloquy, the developer deserves money. This one doesnt

This is a great IRC client

I am a serious IRC user and this app is great. Themes and support for op and admin commands. A perfect blend of power and eye candy. It also leverages the multitasking so you can close Linkinus down for up to ten minutes (the max apple allows) and still be logged in. Awesome feature. Conceited set the bar pretty high with Linkinus on OSX, but the iOS version is a true reproduction, capturing the spirit of the original beautifully. I would highly recommend this app. A steal for the price of a cup of coffee. Just updated... seems snappier. I like this client a lot. Good to see the developers are continuing to invest in the product. Great app!

Wouldnt recommend

App didnt work majority of the time though another IRC app, when tested, worked fine.

IRC client from Mac comes to iOS

Linkinus is awesome on the Mac and now you can use it on iOS. Works great and has nice minimalist style. Focus on chatting not UI.

Best IRC Client for iPhone

Anybody who is using IRC must get this application.

Codepage

Encoding available now :D +5

terrible

its impossible to add a new network -- half the fields in the form are hidden behind the keyboard. I love linkinus for mac, but this editions half-baked. dont waste your money or your time. i wish I hadnt.

Cant add or save networks

I cant say if anything else in the app works; I couldnt add my custom IRC nets to be able to use it.

Horrible app

My biggest isdue is that it doesnt naturally scroll and it is very difficult to read responses. Also no matter what I do it will not recognize that I want to change my display name.
