SubVisual is a beautifully simple way to see every subscription you pay for — what renews next, and what it's really costing you each month. Everything lives on your device: no account, no cloud, no tracking, ever. WHY SUBVISUAL - See it all at a glance. Your subscriptions, sorted by whatever renews next, with a clear monthly and yearly total. - Know before you're charged. Set a reminder for each subscription — days before renewal, at the time you choose — so a payment never surprises you again. - Understand your spending. A clean chart breaks down where your money goes by category. - Truly private. SubVisual has no servers. Your data never leaves your device, and there's nothing for anyone — including us — to see. BUILT TO BE EFFORTLESS - Add a subscription in seconds: name, price, billing cycle, category. - Renewal dates roll forward automatically as they pass. - Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID. - A home-screen widget shows your next payment at a glance. - Full English and Spanish, in light and dark. NO SUBSCRIPTION TO TRACK YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS SubVisual is free to track up to five subscriptions. SubVisual Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited subscriptions — pay once, yours forever, no subscription. PRIVACY IS THE POINT We collect nothing. No analytics, no advertising, no third parties. Your Face ID data stays in Apple's Secure Enclave and is never seen by the app. Take back control of what you're paying for — quietly, on your own device.
