drophost for teachers

drophost lets teachers share worksheets, images, and notes as a browser link students open without another Drive account.Upload the handout, paste the URL into the LMS, email, or chat, and replace the file when a typo lands—class bookmarks stay valid. Free includes one project and 2 MB for Word, images, text, Markdown, and CSV. PDF worksheets and password gates start on Starter at €5/mo or €50/yr; recipients never create an account.Class files as a browser link
  • No student account required
  • Works in LMS and email
  • Update without a new link

How to do it

  1. 1. Upload the handout

    Drop a Word worksheet, image, or PDF into drophost.

  2. 2. Paste the link into the LMS

    Students open it without a cloud account request.

  3. 3. Fix typos without a new link

    Replace the file on the same project.

Handouts that stay put

Replace the worksheet on the same drophost project when you fix an answer key or add a diagram. Students keep one LMS bookmark instead of hunting worksheet_v3 in the inbox. The link stays until you delete the project, so late submissions and makeup work still open the current file.

What fits free

Word docs, images, text notes, Markdown, CSV rosters, and PDFs up to 0.5 MB work on Free within the 2 MB project cap. When you need larger PDF packets, passworded answer keys, or more than one active class project, upgrade to Starter (€5/mo) or Pro (€12/mo or €120/yr) without changing how students open the link.

LMS-friendly sharing

Paste the HTTPS URL into Canvas, Google Classroom, or Moodle the same way you paste any web link. Students open or download in a normal browser tab—no drophost signup and no access-request delay before class starts. Optional passwords on paid plans keep quiz keys off public forwards.
