Add icons that link to your Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and other profiles, hide them or move the icon row.

Social icons are the small round buttons that link to your profiles elsewhere, like Instagram or TikTok. They sit together in one row on your page, so visitors can follow you wherever they like without each account taking up a full link.
Add an icon
Your icons sit under your name at the top of the Links tab. A few common platforms show as dashed, empty slots until you fill them.
- Click an empty slot, or click + (Add social icon) for more platforms.
- Type your username, or paste a link to your profile.
- Press Enter to save it.
You can add Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Threads, Facebook, LinkedIn, Spotify, Snapchat, Pinterest, Twitch and WhatsApp. Spotify asks for your artist ID and WhatsApp for your phone number.
On a phone, tapping a slot opens a sheet from the bottom instead. Type your username and tap the add button.
Change, hide or remove an icon
Click an icon to edit its username. From its menu you can:
- Choose Hide on page to take it off your page but keep it here. Show on page brings it back.
- See its Analytics, to find out how often it's clicked.
- Choose Remove to delete it. Hiyaly asks first, because this can't be undone.
Move the icon row
If you added socials when you set up your page with Hiya, your list of links has a Social icons row. Drag it to move the whole icon row, for example to the bottom of your page. Without that row, your icons show under your bio.
Social icons and connected accounts
Icons are just links. Connecting an account is separate: it's in Settings › Audience › Social media, and lets you show your total followers under your photo.
