# Rove Dating > Plan-first dating for men and women. Men post a specific date plan. Women browse the person and the plan together, then can mark Interested. She can share the night with friends over iMessage. Rove is an iOS dating app launching in Utah Valley (Provo, Orem, Lehi, BYU/UVU, and nearby cities). There is no signup on the website. Create an account and start the 30-day free trial in the iOS app. After the intro, Rove is $1/week. Rove members can connect an AI assistant as an AI matchmaker through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The assistant acts only for the signed-in member, with the same limits as the iOS app. Written by the Rove Dating team. ## Product - Men post a real date plan: activity, time, place, and vibe, with their photo first - Women browse nearby plans and can mark Interested in a specific plan - She can share that night with friends over iMessage before she decides - Plans expire, so the inventory is about what could happen soon - For men and women only - iOS only: [Rove Dating on the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rove-dating/id6745179199) - Pricing: $1/week after a 30-day free trial in iOS ## How it works and FAQ - [How it works](https://rovedating.com/how-it-works): men post a plan; women browse and show interest; accepted interest opens chat - [FAQ](https://rovedating.com/faq): pricing, safety, iOS-only, and how plan-first dating differs from swipe apps - [About](https://rovedating.com/about) ## Date ideas (Utah Valley) Local, specific date ideas from the Rove Dating team.
