AndroIRC APK: questions and answers
Can I install this APK over the version I already have?
Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.
Is AndroIRC free?
The APK is free to download, but the app offers in-app purchases through Google Play.
Is the AndroIRC APK safe?
No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store flagged this file with a security warning. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 0ecfbb6c886f24a899af565cad9150c9.
