Drover pricing.
Free on one host, Pro for more
Drover is free to download and free on one paired host. On that host, pairing, Workspaces, Terminal, Inbox, approvals, attachments, usage, and both LAN and the end-to-end encrypted relay all work without a subscription. Drover Pro adds every host beyond the first, plus push notifications and the Live Activity that tell you the moment an agent needs you — even on your first host.

Drover Pro subscription
Drover Pro is an auto-renewing subscription billed through your Apple Account: $3.99/week, $9.99/month, or $79.99/year (US prices; your local price is shown in the App Store). There is no free trial. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account subscriptions settings — there is no separate Drover billing system.
Whenever Drover Pro is not active and more than one host is paired, the earliest-paired host stays usable and the others are locked until Pro is active again. Nothing is unpaired or deleted, and you can still forget a locked host.
Frequently asked questions
- Is Drover free?
- Yes, on one host. Pair Drover to a single Mac or Linux machine and pairing, Workspaces, Terminal, Inbox, approvals, attachments, usage, and both LAN and the end-to-end encrypted relay all work there without a subscription. Drover Pro is an optional subscription that adds every host beyond the first, push notifications, and the Live Activity.
- Does Drover work away from home?
- Yes, free or Pro. Drover tries your LAN first, then falls back to a direct WebRTC connection or an end-to-end encrypted relay that only ever forwards ciphertext — never a readable copy of your session. The connection route is never priced.
- What does Pro add?
- A second host and every host after it, push notifications — the alert when an agent needs you or finishes — and the Live Activity. Pairing, Workspaces, Terminal, Inbox, approvals, attachments, usage, and LAN and relay control are free on your first host either way.
- What happens with more than one host paired and Pro not active?
- Whenever Drover Pro is not active and more than one host is paired, the earliest-paired host stays usable and the others are locked until Pro is active again. Nothing is unpaired or deleted.
- Is there a free trial?
- No. Drover Pro has no free trial; the first host is free instead.
- Can I cancel?
- Yes, any time. Drover Pro is an auto-renewing subscription managed entirely in your Apple Account; there is no separate billing system to contact.
- Do I need an account?
- No. Pairing is a QR code or a 14-character code between your iPhone and your own Mac or Linux machine — no account, no login, no open ports.
