Hike is a social content platform focused on privacy, expression and bite-sized content. India’s first home-grown messaging platform, Hike, offers several interesting features that can improve your chatting experience on mobile. Some cool features on Hike are:
1. Hike ID
Hike ID is a unique identity that removes the need for sharing your phone number, so your privacy is guarded. Get complete privacy, more convenience with your unique, custom username with Hike ID. Search easily for someone with their Hike ID, without needing to go through the cumbersome process of saving a friend’s number before being able to send him/her a message.
2. Groups upto 1000 members with more Admin controls
Group size exceeded? There’s no such thing on Hike Groups. Add up to a 1000 member in a single group on Hike. With advanced Group Admin settings, you can choose whether it’s a Public or a Private group and even control if members can send messages, stickers or nudges. More power to you.
3. Hidden Mode
