The code is here:
https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=scratch%2Fyangqiao%2Fkdeconnect-ios.git

It hasn't been touched since 2014 therefore the state is definitively that it 
does not use the TLS-encrypted version of the protocol. Updating that part is 
probably a good place to start.

The code is in a personal "scratch" repo. As such there is no proper way to 
contribute. Maybe clone the repo to Github and work from there. If you feel 
you go somewhere with the code, you can ask a KDE Sysadmin to get a git repo 
on kde.org.
The code is dual-licensed. In addition to the GPL (Qiao referred to some 2.1 
version of the GPL that does not exist, maybe he confused it with the LGPL -- 
you may want to ask him for clarification), it's also under MPL. This makes it 
more friendly to an eventual App Store release than GPL only.
My (obviously non-binding) suggestion is to keep App Store-friendly licensing 
for new code you write.
