How to fix Hive Social not working
The Hive Social app has seen a huge spike in the number of sign-ups, resulting in the server being overloaded. So whether you are having trouble logging in or unable to put a header or a profile picture, a server outage or an overburdened server is likely to be the cause.
That said, there areĀ some other things that can cause the app to misbehave such as a corrupted app cache. So, if your Hive Social app is not working, here is what you need to do:
- First, make sure the server is up and running. You can visit their official Twitter page to see if they have reported any ongoing server issues.
- Try clearing the app cache, just in case the cache data is corrupted
- Restarting the app is worth a shot.
- Your last resort is to wait for the traffic to clear and try after a couple of hours or during non-peak hours.

Hive Social username not working
Many users have reported that they are having trouble creating an account on Hive because all the usernames seem to be taken. That seems to be impossible, right?
Well, the usernames arenāt taken, it is just a little glitch in the system due to the server being overloaded, according toĀ a post by Hive staff on Twitter. They assured the users that account creation would go back to normal as soon as the server is fixed. So, don't worry.
Also, many users reported seeing several accounts with the same usernames. Hive Social founder Kassandra explained that the duplicate username issue happened because the function that prevents duplicate usernames from occurring was temporarily disabled due to the heavy traffic.
It seems Hive Social has tackled the issues and everything is back to normal. However, the Hive Social not working issue seems to resurface at times.
