Hive running on iPhone for capturing and saving references on mobile

The direct answer is still no first-party mobile app

If you are looking for a first-party Eagle app on iPhone or iPad, the practical answer is still no. Eagle is still centered on the desktop side of the workflow, which is why mobile questions keep coming up in the first place.

What people usually need on mobile is narrower than the whole archive

Most people asking this are not actually trying to move every desktop task onto a phone. They need capture while the source is still visible, iPad review before the next decision, or a calmer shortlist away from the desk.

The next step is usually a separate mobile layer

Hive is not the official Eagle app. It is a separate mobile app that helps Eagle users keep capture, review, and browsing coherent on iPhone and iPad while desktop remains the deeper archive.
