The official home of "Hive Snaps" app — where you’ll find everything you need to know about the newly launched app, and get ongoing updates about this exciting project.
But first — what is Snaps?
Snaps is a fairy recent new feature introduced by PeakD to allow users to post short-form content (up to 280 characters) — much like tweets, status updates, or microblogs — directly onto the Hive blockchain.
In other words, a Snap is a post 'on-the-go' — great for letting your followers know what you're up to, it can help build your audience, and of course, it pays too.
Up until now, Snaps was only accessible through the PeakD frontend on your browser (via desktop or a phone). Now, with Hive Snaps app you can post snaps directly on your iPhone or Android - much like with other social media apps such as X and Bluesky.
Developed by @meno and
@joseamenac, Hive Snaps is designed to boost engagement on Snaps through an exclusive (Snap-centric) mobile app, that offers a familiar and friendly social media UI, and an intuitive UX - that makes snapping more fun.
Here is an example of the current UI by one of our beta-testers, @ankapolo:
