Favorite the people you call most. Duplicates merge on their own. Your contacts and your call history are tied to your account, not to one device, so they are there wherever you sign in. CHAT — message your people Text or video message anyone on Tive. Signing to a signer needs nobody in between. MIX — your feed The part of Tive that isn't a phone call. Post what's on your mind, follow who you want, and see what everyone's up to. HUB — Deaf news News, events, and resources, pulled from the sources the community already reads.
