WIRC is the first chat application that brings WebRTC and IRC technologies together. You can connect to and chat with IRC chat servers that are readily available or can be defined by the user himself. You can send an invitation to the person you are chatting with to call you. When your friend touches the call button, the call screen in your application will open and soon the voice call will start. Users who are bothering you can notify channel operators with a complaint button in chat options. Channel administrators will make the necessary warnings for these users. If you like, you can block these users by clicking the block button and you can stop to get a message from them again. Only voice call is available in this version of WIRC. In future versions, the video call feature will be added. To make a call, the client applications must be WIRC, otherwise the option will not be shown
