FAQ
What does verification mean?
Verification means SameHive has checked selected account signals. It helps reduce fake profiles, but you should still use judgment and report suspicious behavior.
Can I control who sees my profile?
Yes. Your visibility depends on check-in state, privacy settings, Premium controls, incognito or blur settings, and block actions.
Why was my photo removed?
Photos may be removed if they appear misleading, explicit, hateful, threatening, spammy, commercial, impersonating someone else, or otherwise against Community Guidelines.
Can I use a logo, venue flyer, or group photo as my main profile photo?
Your profile should clearly represent you. Logos, flyers, heavy edits, misleading group photos, or promotional images may be rejected or removed.
Can I change my age, name, or core profile details?
Some profile fields may be editable in-app. Sensitive identity fields may require support review to prevent impersonation, fraud, or age misrepresentation.
What should I avoid in my bio?
Avoid private contact details, spam links, payment requests, hate, threats, explicit solicitation, illegal offers, or anything that pressures other members.
Does verification guarantee someone is safe?
No. Verification is a trust signal, not a complete guarantee of identity, intent, or future behavior. Keep using judgment and reporting tools.
