About this app
Chat comfortably. Everywhere.
REQUIRES A QUASSEL CORE – DOES NOT WORK AS STANDALONE IRC CLIENT
• Use IRC on the go – thanks to the Quassel core, you’ll never miss anything • Always have your entire chat history available – just scroll up to load older messages, the core keeps them for you • Be notified when someone messages you – even if you had no connection in the meantime
If you are looking for the comfort you’re used to from modern chat apps, Quasseldroid is the best free android IRC client for you — you’ll get profile pictures, a beautiful UI based on Material Design, and all the features you love.
And best of all, it’s fully free and open source.
Requirements:
You need to have an account on a Quassel core to use this app. If you have none, you can either set a core up yourself, or check if you can get an account on someone else’s core.
This app only works with cores that run at least Quassel v0.10, for all features to be available you’ll need Quassel v0.13

Launch the app from your home screen
Make sure to re-enable Unknown Sources restrictions after installation for security.
How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be com.iskrembilen.quasseldroid is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.7.0 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Quasseldroid first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Quasseldroid, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets Quasseldroid do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
