Too buggy to use and no longer under development. DO NOT BUY

I bought this application early in its development since it was bravely attempting to solve a problem I have. It has always been buggy, but I’m an engineer and I understand the process and wanted to support the developers.

Unfortunately, they never beat the bugs. The application is unstable and crashes reliably on Mavericks and Yosemite, which is honestly no more frustrating than the interface bugs. I’m deeply disappointed by the quality of this application. They launched it with a $10 price tag (I think we can agree that’s exorbitant for a desktop chat app) and has never had a stable release.

Earlier this year they discontinued development as the XMPP protocol is being discontinued by most services. I don’t blame the developers for that, there’s not really much to be done about it. I do blame them for leaving this broken piece of crap on the app store and not changing the price.

TL;DR: There is no reason to buy this.
