STOP PAYING FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS YOU FORGOT ABOUT. Every month, your card is quietly hit by streaming services, app trials that converted, gym memberships you stopped using, and bills that slowly creep up. Vault is the subscription tracker that catches every renewal, trial, and price hike before it drains your wallet — so you finally know where your money goes and exactly how much you can keep. One glance. Every subscription. Zero guesswork. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH TO VAULT • See every bill, renewal, and free trial on one beautiful dashboard • Get reminded the moment a trial is about to convert — cancel in time, every time • Slash wasted spend with instant category breakdowns and yearly projections • Skip typing — send a screenshot and Vault adds each subscription automatically • Check your next payment from the Lock Screen, Home Screen, or Apple Watch in one second 12 HOME SCREEN AND LOCK SCREEN WIDGETS Twelve widget designs to mix and match: next payment, monthly total, yearly trend, category donut, weekly forecast, top spender, active trials, and more. Every widget refreshes automatically. FULL APPLE WATCH APP Your wrist becomes your subscription dashboard. Five dedicated screens — Overview, Yearly Trend, Categories donut, Weekly Forecast, and Top Spender — sync live from your iPhone. Works even offline. SMART SCREENSHOT IMPORT Adding a subscription takes one tap. Screenshot your Apple subscriptions page, a PayPal email, or a bank statement — Vault's on-device recognition extracts each service, price, and renewal date so you don't type a thing. POWERFUL FINANCIAL ANALYTICS Clear charts show monthly vs yearly spend, cumulative cost curves, category splits, and a portfolio health score that highlights exactly where to cut first. Stop guessing. Start seeing. CALENDAR HEATMAP See which days of the month hit hardest. Days are tinted by how much you spend — pile-ups, doubled renewals, and expensive weeks become impossible to miss. FREE TRIAL ALERTS Mark any subscription as a trial, set the end date, and Vault will ping you before it converts. No more surprise charges for apps you already forgot. 100+ CURRENCIES WITH LIVE CONVERSION Netflix in USD, Spotify in EUR, rent in GBP? Vault converts everything to your home currency in real time with live FX rates. Perfect for travelers, expats, and digital nomads.

About

Subscription Tracker

Features
Read full description

Every plan you pay for, on one list, with the yearly figure up front. SubSense adds up the subscriptions and recurring bills you enter and reminds you a few days before each one renews. You type in what you pay for. There is no bank login and no card linking, so SubSense knows only what you choose to tell it. THE YEARLY FIGURE • Add a plan with its amount, currency, category and billing cycle, from weekly to yearly • Home shows an estimated yearly cost and a monthly equivalent for the plans on your list • Each currency keeps its own totals, so dollars and euros are never blended into one number • See which payments are coming up next A NUDGE BEFORE EACH RENEWAL • Switch on a bill due reminder for any plan and choose how early it arrives, from 1 to 14 days ahead • Reminders follow the next bill date you saved and move when you edit or remove a plan • Trying something out? Save the date the trial converts and hear about it before the first charge • iOS decides exactly when a notification is delivered, so timing can shift with your device settings FASTER IN, EASIER TO GLANCE AT • Fill from a Receipt or Email: choose a screenshot or paste the text, and SubSense reads it on the device and fills the form; you check every field before adding • Widgets count down to the next renewals and show the monthly figure, on your Home Screen or right on the Lock Screen • Ask Siri or use Shortcuts to see what renews soon, get the monthly total or add a plan • All of this works without Premium ON EVERY DEVICE YOU USE • Your list syncs through iCloud when it is available, with no Premium needed • On iPad, a sidebar layout uses the full screen SUBSENSE PREMIUM • No cap on the number of plans. Without Premium the list holds 5 plans; if you used SubSense before this version, yours keeps holding 7 • Charts of scheduled charges by week, month, quarter or year, per currency • Export your list as a CSV or JSON file WORTH KNOWING • Totals are estimates worked out from the prices, start dates and billing cycles you saved. They do not show payments you actually made. • Deleting a plan in SubSense does not cancel it with the provider. Cancel with the company that bills you. • No ads. PREMIUM BILLING SubSense Premium comes as a subscription billed each month or each year that renews automatically, or as a one-time Lifetime purchase that never renews. The purchase screen shows what Premium costs where you live, plus an introductory offer if you qualify for one, before anything is charged. Confirming the purchase bills your Apple Account. Auto-renew may be switched off until 24 hours before a period runs out; while it stays on, the following period is charged in those last 24 hours. To change or end Premium, open Settings, tap your name, then tap Subscriptions.
