Need an app to emulate mIRC. This is better than most, being free. ### 5/5 — Excellent light irc *2017-06-05, version 2.2* Really happy with this client. It works well, has identd, if you don't need ssl or color support then this is about as lean and fast as they get. Definitely recommend ### 5/5 — Good app *2017-06-04, version 2.2* This is my only iOS irc client. It works well and does what I need. Thanks ### 5/5 — Works great *2015-11-06, version 2.0.2* No nonsense. No ads. Great app. ### 5/5 — Very good app!! *2015-10-10, version 2.0.2* I just wish there was an option for smaller text. Other then that, perfect! ### 1/5 — Crashes immediately upon connection *2015-05-29, version 1.0.2* Using ios8, the app crashes as soon as I connect to a channel ### 3/5 — Better than the old one *2014-09-25, version 1.0.2* The developer doesn't update it often and now it needs ios 8 support. Works great when it doesn't crash. ### 4/5 — Great *2014-09-09, version 1.0.2* Finally!! a good, reliable AND free IRC app optimized for iOS 7. I definitely recommend people to try this app before buying any paid IRC app like lime wire/colloquy. ### 4/5 — Good, but *2014-08-03, version 1.0.2* It's good, but it would be nice to have unlimited "keyword" features ### 3/5 — Great but crashes constantly. *2014-08-01, version 1.0.2* This is one of the more advanced IRC clients for the iPhone and that's why I like it. It also has a very clean simple design that's easy to use and navigate. But the one big flaw is the constant crashing when trying to configure a channel. As well as the app just crashing randomly no matter what you're doing. ## Frequently asked questions about IRC999A ### What devices does IRC999A support?
