Hi again. We spoke about all this a few days ago. Sorry to hear you're disappointed with the app.

- The only way to stop receiving notifications is to uninstall the app, there is no disconnect/detach option.

This is a reasonable request and is on my list.

- It doesn't have support for identd (necessary for old ZNC bouncers, and for some bitlbee builds).

As I mentioned, you don't need "identd" for ZNC. TapChat supports password-protected servers and works just fine with ZNC.

- The UI is very young, not comfortable to use, no easy channel switchers, etc. - No buddy/friends list.

- Install fails in "supported' nodejs versions, almost works only on v.0.8.0

There was an issue with certain versions of nodejs, this has been fixed.

- Complete lack of settings, including what I said about the most basic thing, connecting/disconnecting.

You can connect/disconnect from IRC networks in Settings > Manage IRC Networks.
