No TLS certificate validation
Unfortunately, this tool offers no way to look at verifying TLS certifcates, therefore being vulnerable to MITM attacks. Not recommended for the usage.
Not good
Edit: this app drove me to stand up a matrix client and I now use IRC via matrix bridges instead. Matrix is a bloaty mess, yet this was a better trade-off.
The app functions somewhat. If you’ve used quassel clients on macOS, Windows, Android then you’ve experienced that they stay in sync with regard to “read state”, de-duplicate notifications, have functioning notifications. This app: does not sync read state correctly like the rest of the quassel ecosystem. Presents the channel list in a novel and frankly useless way. Notifications are not functioning. Overall it’s a really janky and broken experience. It has minimal functionality- you can at least read (some of) the backlog and send messages. You’ll find navigation hard and be disappointed with the lack of notifications and synchronizing.

Works. But abandoned.
It functions enough to use for quassel but there doesn’t seem to be any active development for this app anymore. Last update was over a year ago. It has a few bugs like broken reconnections and the ui can go for some improvement. It’s the only quassel app for iOS though so it is what it is. I’ll just use blink and irc from a terminal.

Quassel
It’s bouncy
Works
I actually bumped the rating up when I realized that you can indeed see more buffer by pulling down on the top (typical iOS refresh style). The app does still show the login screen or have minor issues connecting sometimes where you have to tap connect again. I wish there were more settings in the app as well. Such as making all the default instead of recent. It would also be nice if the text input didn’t require you to drag the channel text upward to get to it.
