Does the basics

Does the basics. The app is very slow to open. Needs to be improved.

Hi Blueocean,

Thanks for your feedback. The app definitely shouldn’t be slow to open — it normally loads immediately — so what you’re describing sounds more like a device‑specific issue rather than the Hive app itself. A few quick checks usually sort this out:

📱 If you're using an Android or Samsung device:
- Clear the Hive app cache
• Go to Settings → Apps → Hive → Storage → Clear Cache
(avoid “Clear Data” unless advised)
- Close background apps
• Tap the three vertical lines at the bottom of your screen
• Swipe away apps you’re not using — this frees up memory and prevents freezing

🍏 If you're using an iPhone:
- Delete and reinstall the Hive app
• Tap and hold the Hive app icon → Remove App → Delete App
• Restart your iPhone
• Reinstall Hive from the App Store and log back in
- Check Background App Refresh
• Go to Settings → General → Background App Refresh
• Set to Wi‑Fi & Mobile Data
• Scroll down and make sure Hive is toggled ON

🔍 General tips for both devices:
• Check for VPNs or battery‑saving apps — these can interfere with app performance
• Make sure your device has enough free storage
• Keep both your operating system and the Hive app updated — updates include important stability fixes

If you still find the app slow after trying these steps, we’re more than happy to take a closer look for you:

Smooth and easy to open

Smooth and easy to open. All opened online. However, method for taking money out, there is a delay in setting this up, because of the use of snail mail. May be they will introduce a quicker method in future.
