why it's different

A client that never has to stay open.

The bouncer holds your nick in every channel 24/7. The app just picks the session up wherever you left it — on this iPhone, on the web, or in your own IRC client.

#always-connected

Connected while you're away

The hosted bouncer stays in your channels around the clock. The app reconnects by itself when the network returns.

#history

History that waits

Everything said while you were away is there when you open the app, and older history pages in from the bouncer as you scroll up.

#sync

Every device in sync

Read markers, pins, highlight words, blocks and display settings follow your account between the iPhone, Android and the web.

#native

Native Swift, 1.4 MB

Not a web wrapper: fast to launch, light on battery and at home on iOS 16 and newer.

#networks

Any network

Libera.Chat, OFTC, EFnet and two dozen more are a tap away, or add any server with TLS and SASL.

#your-data

Free, no ads, no tracking

Every feature for $0, nothing to upgrade to. Delete your account any time at ircfiber.com/privacy.
