Igloo 4+

Overall a good revision of the app, but some simple and usual elements are changed or missing.

I know I’m not alone in wanting the ability to ignore users. The IRC world is rampant with ugliness and without ignore, you can’t truly shut it out at times.

Please add the ability to choose to turn off the Slap function. I can’t tel you how many times I’ve gone to a user, wanted to see their WhoIs, only to have that menu jump and in turn, making me select the Slap function.
I don’t slap people. I don’t like violence. This seems like an easy ‘re-add’, as the function was a toggle selection in the previous version.

Lastly, there have even times that I select the theme (always Light) only to launch the app and have to select it again. This even comes when setting the selection to my iPads default theme. Just a simple bug there.

Again, good work. I just know it can always get better!

Thanks!

Ignore just hasn't been made a thing because it's really just unreliable. Someone can just change their nick/ident/host and bother you again and eventually you have 700 entries in your ignore list and you're still being bothered. As for the slap action, I'll add a toggle for that. As for the theme switching, are you making sure that you are hitting save after changing the theme rather than hitting cancel or simply swiping the settings away? The theme change is applied immediately when the theme is selected, but only saves to your settings if you hit the save button. Give that a shot and if you still have a problem email contact@igloo.app or hit support in settings to come into our irc channel.

ITS A SCAM Doesn’t have ignore feature, doesn’t have ability to type in color, can’t make font bigger than 20 so it’s tiny on phone screen, developer response “I’ve only made enough money to buy a slice of pizza” don’t waste your money find something else, even turboirc has more features and it hasn’t been updated in years, developer got mad when email complaints came in and pulled the older version but not until he pulled all its features. Paid for that one and he pulled it, nothing to say he won’t pull this one after he gets more pizza money. ITS A SCAM

Update : went to support and asked questions about it not having a feature and was berated and kicked out of the room, I can see now why it only has 3 stars, I was willing to give it a shot but if the developer is condescending and has a “it’s my app and I do what I want” attitude and berates and allows people to be berated in the so called “support” room what does that tell you? If I could afford the 20$ I now know I wouldn’t pay it FIND ANOTHER, ANY OTHER APP OR PROGRAM

Instead of a jerky 1 star review, how about send a friendly email or hop in our chat and just make some suggestions. This app has been here now for a few months and nobody has asked for ignore, nobody has asked for the color inputs, and nobody has asked for a font bigger than 20 (which is massive btw). Turbo IRC is a really bad app that literally is so old it doesn't even take up your whole screen and can't connect to a server with SSL lol. Also, this new app exists specifically so it can be supported long term unlike the old app, and this is a lifetime purchase rather than an upgrade in an app that was planned to be depreciated a long time ago. This new version was started back in 2021, just was too busy with things that make me more than $200 to finish it.

RE: Update
Just like you were a jerk in your original review, you were a jerk in the channel to myself and others just trying to help you, additionally, what makes you think you're going to get help if you leave a 1 star review first saying it's a "SCAM"? The fact that you're crying this much about not having /ignore makes a lot more sense now after seeing multiple interactions with you. Don't be so confrontational and you won't need to ignore people when they hurt your poor little feelings in response to your jerkiness. If you could just be a decent person, you would've gotten a free code just like every single other person that comes into the channel or emails me, but you're not capable. Please go find another client, you using Igloo gives it a bad name.

Obviously the individuals creating this program don’t use it!
Give us the ability to ignore users please.
Also it won’t remember the theme I select (Black). I have to set it to black everytime I open it.
This program needs major work!
The one I paid for before it’s one was way better!

Ignore will come eventually, only a few people are asking for it so it's not a priority right now. Nobody has requested it on the feature request page of our website therefore nobody has been able to show actual interest because it hasn't been voted on like other features.

Your issue with the theme is likely because you're changing the theme and then hitting cancel instead of hitting save.

Anyway, a 1 star review isn't the best place for support or to request features. Also, I use Igloo every single day, hit support in settings and you can chat with us instead of leaving bad reviews for support.
