How to fix Hive Social not working
Hive Social is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach hivesocial.app over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check Hive Social report level
Look at the status at the top of this page. It shows whether user problem reports for Hive Social are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, and it does not test the service itself; if the level is normal, the issue is likely on your end.
Toggle airplane mode for Hive Social
Turn airplane mode on, wait a few seconds, then turn it off and reopen the app. If the feed loads, your connection dropped and it had nothing to show.
Force quit Hive Social
On iOS, swipe up from the bottom and flick the app off the screen; on Android, open Recents and swipe the card away. Launch it again and sign in if asked.
Clear Hive Social cache
On Android, go to Settings > Apps > Hive Social > Storage > Clear cache. On iOS, long press the app icon, tap Remove App, then Delete App, and reinstall from the App Store.

What happens when Hive Social goes down
Hive Social is a social app for posting updates, following people, sending messages, and reading a feed, and it appeals to people who want a chronological timeline and a smaller community than the big networks. When it goes down, that routine stops: timelines freeze, posts stall, messages hang, and notifications arrive late.
The feed usually breaks first. You pull to refresh and get the same old posts or a spinner that never finishes, and posting can fail next when you tap publish, the app hangs, and the post either disappears or shows up twice after the service recovers. Direct messages and notifications may stall, and sent messages can stick on sending while likes or replies do not register. The app's outages tend to be partial or regional, so one region can struggle while the app works for other people.

How we track Hive Social
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Hive Social, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Hive Social, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Hive Social doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
