Frequently Asked Questions

Is The Hideout a gaming platform or a chat app?
Both. It's a social platform built specifically for people who game together — so it has the community features of a social app and the focus of a gaming tool.
Can I use it on console?
Yes — via mobile browser or phone app while your console game runs.
Is there voice chat?
Currently The Hideout focuses on text, notes, and posts. Voice features are on the roadmap.
How is it different from a Discord server?
It's smaller and more personal. No bots, no mod overhead, no public channels — just your crew.
