About

Subble

Features

Subscriptions are easy to start and easy to forget. Subble puts them all in one place so you can see what leaves your account every month, and reminds you before you are charged. ■ This app is not a subscription Charging a monthly fee for an app that manages your subscriptions never made sense to us. Subble is a single purchase. No monthly fee, no ads. And the purchase only lifts the limit on how many subscriptions you can keep. The charts, the widget, the screenshot assist and CSV export are all free. ■ Reminders that stop the forgotten renewal - Before a payment is due (3 days ahead by default; anywhere from the day itself to a week) - Two days before a free trial ends, while you can still cancel ■ See the real monthly cost - The monthly total and what it adds up to over a year - Yearly, weekly, two-month, six-month and every-N-days billing are all converted to a monthly figure - How many days until the next payment - Each subscription is drawn as a bubble sized by what it costs, so the expensive ones stand out ■ Quick to add - Common services fill in their own category and billing cycle as you type the name - Let a screenshot do the typing: pick a shot of a pricing page or a card statement, and the amounts and service names it finds appear as buttons. Tap one of each and the fields fill in, billing cycle included. The text is read entirely on your iPhone, and neither the image nor the result is ever sent anywhere. ■ Your data stays on your iPhone No account, no server. It works without a connection. Save a backup file and you can bring everything back after changing phones or reinstalling the app. ■ Six billing cycles Weekly, monthly, every 2 months, every 6 months, yearly, and every N days. ■ Categories Phone & internet, work & study, everyday, health & fitness, entertainment, insurance, car, housing, other. Rent, utilities, parking and car tax sit alongside your subscriptions, so the whole of your fixed spending is in one place. If none of them fit, create your own category and pick its colour and icon. Each category has its own colour, and the Insights tab shows a breakdown and a ranking by yearly cost. ■ Free and Pro (one-time purchase) Free - Up to 5 subscriptions - Monthly and yearly totals - Payment and free-trial reminders - Insights: breakdown by category and ranking by yearly cost - Widget - Screenshot assist - CSV export - Your own categories - Backup and restore Pro (one-time purchase) - Unlimited entries. That is the only difference. ■ Languages English, 日本語, 简体中文 Note: amounts are shown in Japanese yen.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CPF Mobile at none against Subble's 1. CPF Mobile also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Subble's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
