About Hive
Hive's quarter is mobile parity, with chat and dashboards getting tidied on the side.
Hive is in a steady incremental polish phase. The dominant thread is pulling more of the desktop experience onto mobile: workflow visibility, time tracking from action cards, Gantt views, and a beefed-up universal search all landed within a week of each other. Chat got a parallel set of refinements (inline video, file gallery, history preservation when members leave), and dashboards picked up median aggregation.
