Hive Social 17+

This is a really cool app. It’s got a really clean interface, and the ability to choose your theme is really nice too and adds a touch of personality to the app. I do have a couple of suggestions however that would push my rating to a 5 star if they were included.

1) a way to get your profile link. I could not find any way to copy my own profile link for sharing with my friends, however I did find a way to copy other people’s links. I ended up getting fed up and decided to create a second account solely to copy my link. If this is the only way to copy your link, it would be nice for a much simpler route (maybe don’t replace the button that brings up the menu to copy links from with a settings button) or if it’s already there make it clearer as to how this can be achieved. It would be a great improvement to the app.

2) Pinned posts. This one isn’t as much as a necessity but it would be nice to be able to pin a post outlining certain things about you, such as (from a content creator’s perspective) personal boundaries and goals. Would be amazing.

Apart from that, it’s a really good app and I hope these features get added in the future.

Downloaded this app as a valid alternative to another popular social media. When I first started using it, it was mostly good and had a great UI. Unfortunately, since then, the timeline stopped refreshing entirely, posts were not updated and everything ground to a halt. It just wouldn’t update the timeline at all and I couldn’t search for any posts.
In a mark of trying to fix the problem, thinking it was a user problem, I deleted the app and did a fresh install on my phone. Now it won’t log me in and when I prompt for a password reset, I get an internal error (Hive server error).
I’d not normally give anything a one star review, or take the time to write a poor review, but when things are this bad, I have to write this in hope the developer[s] can see it and hopefully fix it.
If the developer had any sense, they should have quickly hired a good few developers quickly to help resolve any initial issues. There WAS an audience waiting to leave T****er, but it will dwindle away if this app remains a small business entity. It’s broken and doesn’t seem to have a future. Gutted.

I came over from Instagram to branch out and saw that this was an up and coming alternative to Twitter. I posted my first post the other day and it was more or less okay but could Hive please allow me to copy and paste? I like to type my posts up on my notes first but I soon discovered I can’t copy and paste this over into my post on Hive. I posted again recently just now and spent a lot of time organising the images I used in the post, as well as typing up what I wanted to say in it, only for it to completely disappear? My profile says I have two posts but only shows one of them. It doesn’t show my most recent post and I can’t find it anywhere! It’s quite frustrating! I don’t know how to fix this? I like the app and it feels like it has potential but it’s very buggy and laggy and seems like it has a long way to go. My experience has been just okay so far.
