A customizable social media platform

Hive Social is a free social networking app from Hive Social Inc. where you can post text and photo updates, create polls, and discover others who share the same interests as you do. It’s an amalgamation of various social and communication apps, so it acts as a photo-sharing platform, messaging app, and music-sharing service in one.

Users proclaim Hive Social as a more extensive alternative to Twitter, thanks to the numerous additional features it provides. Compared to the latter, this one also allows more ways for you to personalize your profile, with color themes and unique identifier tags.

A personalized social media experience

With Hive Social, you can connect with a hive of likeminded people by exploring the discover page. This section of the app allows you to follow topics relevant to you so that you can easily find posts that interest you. The home feed is arranged chronologically, so it makes it easier for users to stay up to date on all their mutuals’ recent posts. 

One of the app’s main selling points is its customizable features. Apart from setting your own profile photo, header, and username, you can also add identifiers to let other users know your zodiac sign and pronouns. Apart from choosing your own color theme, you also have the ability to add a song that automatically plays as soon as someone visits your profile.

While this social networking app is rapidly gaining popularity, especially with its unique feature set, there are still some issues it can improve on. First, it takes quite a bit of time before content can appear on your feed, so all you see is a blank screen. Second, there are numerous users with similar usernames, making it difficult to distinguish the real account owners from parody and duplicate accounts.

Great potential to become a top app

Although Hive Social is still a little rough around the edges, it presents a number of great features that make it worth checking out. Not only does it allow you to curate your feed based on your interests, but it also allows personalization so you can show off your true personality. Just keep in mind that it’s possible that you end up with the same username as someone else.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
