Thursday, April 15th, 2010

Yaaic developer pocmo just announced that he released version 0.3 of his Android IRC client which comes with quite a few enhancements and bugfixes – so lets have a look.

The first thing that immediately grabs the attention – for those that don’t follow the projects Twitter feed – is the addition of the new logo:

But there have been many under-the-hood improvements as well: You can now choose the encoding on a per-server basis and are not bound to the default UTF-8 as in the previous version. This version is also the first to support SSL encrypted connections but pocmo warns that the TrustManager currently will accept every certificate, valid or not.

Yaaic Android IRC client 0.2 released

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

The Yaaic project brings us yet another release of their IRC client for the Android platform and is now available for download as version 0.2.

This new version – released just one week after v0.1 – has a few bugs fixed, features added as well as a few cosmetic touch-ups.

Developer pocmo writes in his announcement that he, despite the fact that he dropped the “Beta” from its name, still considers Yaaic to be in the Beta stage which it will most likely remain “as long as there’s a 0 at the beginning of the version number”.

The Yaaic project – short for “Yet another Android IRC client” – just released a 0.1 Beta version of their IRC client for the Android platform.

The announcement came via Twitter from @Yaaic who had posted a screenshot of the first-ever query handled by his IRC client earlier:

All the basic features seem to be there and even though it is an early version it already has multi-server support which seems to work flawlessly.

Developer pocmo has posted a video on Vimeo, demonstrating his IRC client:
