No it isn't.
- The only way to stop receiving notifications is to uninstall the app, there is no disconnect/detach option.
- It doesn't have support for identd (necessary for old ZNC bouncers, and for some bitlbee builds).
- The UI is very young, not comfortable to use, no easy channel switchers, etc.
- No buddy/friends list.
- Install fails in "supported' nodejs versions, almost works only on v.0.8.0
- Complete lack of settings, including what I said about the most basic thing, connecting/disconnecting.
I had a lot of hopes for this, I use IRC with a few servers and a personal IM gateway (bitlbee), and for now I'm using AndChat which is a very good Android client but the permanent connection makes the battery drain very fast.
After having trouble getting the server up (nodejs version and such), I had trouble setting up the servers to connect to, as the settings for creating a new server were different with those of editing the new server, and the password was not even remembered when creating one, so I had to put it again after creating it in the edit mode.
But still, no support for identd had me update ZNC and bitlbee to support only server password with "user:pass".
After I finally got it up, for the first few minutes it was a dream, notifications came very fast, the app was good looking. And then I tried detaching from the server, no way to do that, after I kill the process, notifications still came up, and after "logging off" from my server I would still get them!!!! only way to stop was uninstalling the App.
Which I did. Hopefully I'll reinstall it when these problems get fixed.
