Hello. I've written another IRC client for KaiOS.
https://notabug.org/bananaphone/vm-irc
Advantages:
- It's written for non-touch KaiOS devices and not FFOS. Easily work
with it with buttons and not cursor!
Disadvantages:
- Network address is hardcoded: irc.freenode.net
- Only a single channel
- Lacking authorization(NickServ or anything else)
- Lacking lots of features like colors, kick/ban, op/deop,
voice/devoice and
...
- You have to enter data(nick and channel) each time you want to
connect. it doesn't save anything.

With all pros and cons of it, it's better than Foxkehchat for me and
that's why I've developed it.
Also PRs are very welcome!
Enjoy!

Thank you Farooq! 
Would you like to share it on the B-Hackers store? Let me know so I can upload it.

If so could you find a nice icon to replace the stock webide's?
Regards,
Sylvain D

This is epic. I mean, pure academic example of IRC processing. And yes, mozTCPSocket always saves the day.

Regarding nickserv and kickbans - this is something that can be handled with the /msg commands alone.
Regarding colors - here's the documentation: https://github.com/myano/jenni/wiki/IRC-String-Formatting

Hello Mr. Boss :)
(You are the boss, aren't you? :D)
Adding these new features isn't hard but because the software with the
features now it has is enough for me, I don't bother adding the features
it doesn't have.
By the way, is being "pure academic example of IRC processing" bad or
good?
P.S.: How do you kickban people with /msg ?!

Nope. We have no bosses. Just admin.

It's very good.
 
P.S.: How do you kickban people with /msg ?!

My bad, kick/ban commands are separate entities. What I meant to say is that they can be sent in the same way as /msg command.

it would be possible that you put a build/myappname.zip in your repo. then you can just download and install it?

Hello perry
What do you mean by zip? a zip of the repo which is available in
https://notabug.org/bananaphone/vm-irc/releases or the zip described in
https://sites.google.com/view/bananahackers/development/your-app ?

I mean a ready to donwload/install vm-irc.zip. So you do not have to create the zip yourself.
