Hive - Productivity Platform 4+

Works ok for what I need (messaging team when not at computer).

Issues: do not disturb doesn’t always work, will send me messages/push notifications during set DND time.

Can’t set DND to span evening and morning, something is wrong with the AM/PM. If you set the DND time from 6 PM to 7 AM, it will auto-correct to 6:59 AM - 7 AM. Would like to be able to set the DND for non-working hours in both the evening and morning.

Desktop and web version are good but it was shocking how miserable the mobile version is. This is hardly to be able to be considered as a complete mobile product.

Not only it only has bare minimum existing functions (You can have any tasks app on market offers way more complicated functions as this app), but the user experience is just chaotic.

When you delete/add a task, it wouldn’t ref-elect so immediately (I cannot believe in 2023 that a simple function couldn’t be done properly), even after you restart/refresh the app.

You can’t edit/add a project directly form mobile (only actions).

In “my action”, the app would only display “random” 5 actions, out of all your actions. you cannot scroll to view more unless you move into the actual project.

And what the actions the app choose to display doesn’t even make too much sense. I have actions due in 5 days but it choose to show something with further due, it’s not based on the action card order in the project, it’s not based on alphabetical order.

I honestly don’t understand why a company would put a product like this on the market. It doesn’t look good for the company’s image and I have seriously doubt for their judgement after using the mobile app.

I rely on this app to keep up with my teammates around the world, which is super easy with the notification feed and chat. It’s a pared down experience from desktop but they plucked out the most important things you need to stay in touch and keep work moving ahead and simplified that on mobile.

Especially helpful for me is the approvals on mobile - I can be literally anyway in my day, get a ping that it’s my turn to take a look or approve something and I can do that in seconds. Maybe sorry for me but good for productivity, I’m able to do this from anywhere and I don’t keep my team waiting.
