FAQ
macOS availability, undo, cost, API keys, file access outside the folder, upgrading from 2.x, and Wayland.
- Is there a Mac version?
- Yes, since Hover 3.4.1: a
.dmgfor Apple silicon and one for Intel is on the release page. It isn’t notarized yet, so open it the first time with right-click → Open. The Mac app is new and hasn’t been run on a Mac yet by the project, so treat it as a preview. See Hover on macOS. - Can I undo what an agent did?
- Checkpoints keep your folder before and after every turn. Restore goes back to an earlier answer and Try again resends a message from before it. Git must be installed.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing. Hover is MIT-licensed. The agents use your own plans and sign-ins.
- Do I need API keys?
- Not for Hover itself. Each agent uses the sign-in its own CLI keeps, and OpenCode uses its own providers. A key is needed only if you pick cloud speech or text cleanup for voice.
- Can agents see files outside the folder?
- With Full access they may. Use Ask first to be asked before anything outside the folder, or Read only.
- I’m on Hover 2.x for Windows. Do I lose anything?
- No. The installer replaces 2.x in place, and the native app reads the data folder, settings and sessions it left behind.
- Does it work on Wayland?
- Yes, through XWayland. The one limit is global shortcuts, which only reach Hover while an XWayland window has focus.
