Subscription Tracker

You signed up for a free trial months ago. You meant to cancel. You didn't. It's still charging you, quietly, every month. Most people are paying for more than they think. The honest number is higher than the one in your head, and the gap is made of subscriptions you forgot you had. Subba fixes that. Add your subscriptions once and see the truth in one calm screen: what you pay every month, what you pay every year, and exactly when the next charge lands. No bank login. No account. No surprises. WHAT SUBBA DOES Add a subscription in seconds, with a price, a renewal date, and a category. See your real monthly and yearly total the moment you open the app. Know exactly when each charge lands, this week and this month, so you decide on purpose instead of getting charged by default. Sort by category to spot the streaming pile-up, the three music apps, the gym you stopped going to. Track multiple currencies if you pay for services abroad. Export your list as CSV or JSON whenever you want. It's your data. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Subba has no account and no cloud. Your subscription list never leaves your device. We can't see it, because there's nothing to see. No sign-up, no email, no password. ONE PAYMENT, YOURS FOREVER Here's the part we're proud of: Subba is the subscription tracker that isn't a subscription. You pay once and own it for life, and Family Sharing is supported, so your household is covered too. No monthly fee, no annual fee, no trial that turns into a charge. The whole point is to stop paying for things on autopilot, so it would be strange to make you do exactly that to use the app. Pay once. Keep it forever. Cancel nothing, because there's nothing to cancel. Open Subba, add what you pay for, and finally see the real number.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Subscription Tracker at Free against DataMan's $0.99. Subscription Tracker also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months). DataMan's advantage is chart position (#25 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
