2026-04-28	wo*****	If it had said it cost $20, I would have considered spending $20 on it. But it said it was free (no indication in description that this needs a license) and then asked for $20. So now if I want to use this I have to get over feeling deceived and then fork over $20

2026-03-31	Wi*****	Igloo IRC Client is the best that I’ve seen on the App Store! Between the hugely vast configuration of servers to te mostly perfect amount of app configuration, I was hard pressed to find anything I didn’t like about this app. It’s only real flaw to me is the lack of font size selection being capped at 30pt. Capping at 50pt would make it much more usable for low vision users such as myself. Thanks for giving this issue some attention.

2026-02-27	Ri*****	Igloo is hands-down the best IRC client on iOS right now. Clean, modern UI, rock-solid support, and many useful features! Worth every penny for anyone serious about mobile IRC.

2026-02-15	Da*****	After discovering the iOS client I’ve used for years was no longer available on the app store, I decided to give Igloo a try. Being one week into the trial, I wish I’d discovered Igloo years ago! The client works seamlessly with my bouncer, has a well-organized and minimalistic interface, and has ircv3 capability. Zero problems setting it up and no complaints after using it heavily over the past week. I’m not crazy about subscription models, so I appreciate the one-time purchase option. Overall, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed using Igloo, would recommend it without question, and hope it continues to be actively developed for years to come!

2026-01-26	xa*****	There are very few IRCs out there supporting modern day devices. I really appreciate the work you do, regardless of whether they’re saying you open a new app every year or whatever. I understand the need for innovation and I see that you are generous in giving free keys to past users. 5 stars. Good work. Thank you for providing a secure space.

2025-10-26	No*****	I wouldn’t mind adware but I’m not clicking on acting that says “Free Trial” cause we all know what that means.

2025-08-04	Th*****	I’m an experienced IRC user. I’ve used IceChat in the past, and it did what it was supposed to do … I just stopped using my phone for IRC. Diving back into it, ready to get back on it and I’m seeing reviews. Some of which aren’t bad, some suggest improvements here and there but all are met with attitude-laden responses from the devs. I’m passing because they’re toxic.

2025-02-21	be*****	The developer refuses to implement support for the CHATHISTORY extension meaning history will always be incomplete leading to a sub par experience even with the poorly implemented support for bouncers.
