Added expanded audio detection, 3Speak audio support, and host-controlled Hive node management across authentication.
Your Snaps feed just learned to listen — and your auth layer finally learned to follow directions. Buckle up, because this update is all about better audio and smarter infrastructure. 🚀
We taught HiveReactKit to recognize basically every audio format you can throw at it. Snaps feed cards now auto-detect:
If you've ever uploaded audio to Hive and watched it render as a sad, lifeless link — those days are over. Compatibility across the Hive ecosystem just got a whole lot wider.
Audio URLs with trailing query parameters? Previously ignored. Now? Fully recognized and rendered with proper media previews. Those once-broken links finally get the spotlight they deserve.
This is the big one. We added first-class support for hosted 3Speak audio player links:
audio.3speak.tv/play?...
3Speak audio is now treated as a real media citizen inside the feed — not just another mystery URL.
3Speak Audio Preview Support
Audio attachments now render as dedicated preview tiles, so you can spot audio content at a glance while scrolling. And tapping one? It launches the official 3Speak audio player directly — no manual URL gymnastics required.
Interactive Audio Tiles
The result: better audio discovery, expanded media compatibility, and tighter 3Speak integration. Everybody wins. 🏆
Meanwhile, on the infrastructure side, we gave host applications the keys to the kingdom. They can now fully control which Hive API node the authentication package uses — no more relying on internally selected fallback nodes that had a mind of their own.
Every auth operation now respects the host-selected node:
We also fixed the classic "auth uses one node, broadcast uses another" awkwardness. After private-key login, Aioha now immediately switches to your configured node — preventing those surprise fallback moments. Authentication and broadcasting finally agree on which endpoint to use.
Aioha Node Management Improvements
We bumped our Aioha dependency to improve node management, broadcast reliability, and authentication consistency. This makes the auth package way more flexible for apps that need:
Every update here is about building reusable, reliable components that benefit multiple Hive applications. Richer media support, rock-solid authentication, and better interoperability — all in the open. 💜
We're not slowing down. Expect even more media types, deeper player integrations, and continued infrastructure hardening to make building on Hive smoother than ever. Stick around — the best is yet to come. 🛠️
