### 4/5 — 挺好的

*2026-08-29*

希望可以有终身免费的付费

**Developer response:** 非常感谢你的支持和反馈，我们会继续努力优化体验，让 Hive 变得更加好用。

### 5/5 — Great app, fast developers!

*2026-08-26*

Thank you for adding audio playback controls! Can we have similar 15s backwards/forwards for video playback controls? An easier way to access mute or PiP would be amazing as well!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the support! The same gesture also applies to videos and is already usable in the current version. We will consider adjusting the mute area in the future. As for the picture-in-picture (PiP), we currently do not plan to make many adjustments, as the implementation here is relatively complex.

### 1/5 — 出错啦，更新之后不能下载连接图片

*2026-08-25*

出错啦，更新之后不能下载连接图片

**Developer response:** 很抱歉给您带来不好的体验，无法下载可能是由于您设备网络问题，请尝试重启设备或更换wifi，或更新到1.10.4版本再次尝试。如果有特殊链接无法处理，请通过应用内反馈渠道提交反馈。

### 5/5 — My daily driver now!

*2026-08-20*

I actually don’t write many reviews, in fact this may even be my first but this app has become a daily use for my artwork, the ability to sync with Eagle on my Mac is great, but I’ve actually been using Hive on iPad more than Eagle on the Mac and then of course the iPhone app for on the go. The Dev is also super responsive which is also an added bonus and open to suggestions etc. Keep it up. Love it.

**Developer response:** Really appreciate your feedback and support. We will keep working on improving our products.

### 5/5 — 使用情况

*2026-08-16*

最近发现抖音导入的链接都无法打开，想问一下是什么情况。

**Developer response:** 感谢你的反馈，我们已经在 1.10.2 版本中尝试修复这个问题，请更新应用。

### 5/5 — Exactly What I Hoped

*2026-08-12*

I have been wanting a way to view my Eagle Libraries on mobile FOREVER and Hive does that so well and is beautiful to boot. 
There are also consistent updates and constant improvement. I’m so glad to be along for the ride. Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Really appreciate your feedback and support. We will keep working on improving our products.

### 5/5 — 能否加入左右边缘轻点翻页的功能

*2026-08-11*

如题，减少滑动。左右的菜单功能里有翻页，但也不好用。以五星

**Developer response:** 感谢你的反馈和支持，目前我们暂时没有计划，因为Hive可以显示很多类型的文件，诸如视频和3D文件这类需要交互的，他们已经占用了很多的手势，因此再加入这种翻页手势会让用户非常困惑，这也是我们没有加入的核心原因。我们会尝试优化和找到更好的方案。

### 5/5 — Very useful for Eagle database

*2026-08-03*

Thank you for this very practical and elegant application, which I use daily in connection with my Eagle database. The frequent updates are a good sign of vitality. My wish would be for the tag explorer to be more readable so that certain tags are no longer cut off. Keep up the good work!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your support and encouragement. We will optimize the browsing and presentation of the tag selector, because it involves different label lengths. We will try to optimize it in subsequent versions.

### 1/5 — 老子的图呢？

*2026-08-01*

怎么都加载不出来能不能快点修复！！！！

**Developer response:** 很抱歉给您带来不好的体验，请尝试更新1.9.14版本后，执行一次“刷新数据库”后即可正确显示。

### 5/5 — 能导入社交媒体很方便，不过希望能优化一下导入时的命名方式

*2026-07-27*

希望能识别导入的内容标题、作者、正文的区别，自动将正文填入备注内，并支持自定义命名方式（如针对X推文可以自定义名称为“作者_标题_帖子序号_编号”或“[作者] 标题 p编号”，提供一个自定义命名方式。

对于刚刚导入的链接，下次在打开的时候识别到剪切板后不要再次弹出导入提醒。

同时希望能支持更多平台，如B站动态、Pixiv等，并提供个登陆功能。

还有很多平台获取的图片分辨率比较低（比如X），不是原图。

**Developer response:** 感谢你的反馈和支持，由于不同的平台经常性的变动数据结构，因此我们无法份稳定的提供这种获取方式和自定义的命名方式。登陆功能涉及到账号的本地存储和缓存，不在我们的主线范畴内，你可以使用 Hive 自带的 Safari 插件，在相应的平台网站上使用插件直接导入素材。
