What NULVEX is

NULVEX is AndroidIRCx, an IRCv3-compliant client for Android. It connects to multiple IRC networks and servers at once, with channels, private messages, and automatic server failover. Users can configure SOCKS5, HTTP CONNECT, or Tor proxies per network or globally. The client supports SASL server login, IRCv3 capability negotiation, and DCC file transfers and chat. Direct messages and channels are listed as end-to-end encrypted with key verification, while server connections can use SSL/TLS. The app can also be locked by PIN or biometrics, and secrets are stored in the device Keychain. Other tools include a JavaScript scripting engine with event hooks, custom commands, and timers; Bouncer/ZNC integration; and a services panel for NickServ, ChanServ, HostServ, and OperServ. Encrypted backup and restore covers settings, networks, keys, aliases, scripts, and lists. NULVEX is free and open source under GPL-3.0. It requires Android 7.0 or later, with Android 11 or later recommended, and is available through Google Play or a direct APK download. Google Play describes NULVEX as an encrypted notes vault, which differs from AndroidIRCx, the IRC client described here.
