From sign-up to results
No uploads, no re-encoding, no account. Here's exactly how Trove gets from your files to playback.

Point Trove at your music
Add a local folder, or connect a WebDAV or SMB share on your NAS or server. Your files stay exactly where they are.
- 2
Trove scans and organizes
Tags, album art, lyrics and duration are read in the background. Your library appears organized by songs, albums and artists.

Press play
Gapless playback, synced lyrics, EQ presets and AirPlay — on your Mac and your iPhone, with no subscription and no account.
Why people choose Trove
Trove is built with SwiftUI as a real native app on both macOS and iOS — not a web wrapper. It plays 15+ formats including FLAC, ALAC, APE and DSD, streams directly from WebDAV and SMB shares, and keeps everything local: no account, no cloud middleman, no tracking. The core player is free, and Pro is a one-time purchase — never a subscription.
