That $200 jacket you wore four times? That's $50 per wear. Your gym membership may cost $24 per visit. Worth It - Cost Per Use is a cost-per-use tracker for iPhone and iPad, with a companion Apple Watch app. See how often you use your clothes, gear, subscriptions, and memberships, and what each use really costs. Estimate a purchase before you buy, then track its value through actual use. ▸ ADD IT. TAP +1. WATCH THE COST DROP. Add clothes, tech, gear, appliances, subscriptions, or memberships with just a name and price. Each time you use something, tap +1. Worth It recalculates cost per use instantly. Already own it? Enter the uses so far and start from your real count. Logged one too many? Edit the total anytime. ▸ BEFORE YOU BUY Wondering whether a purchase would be worth it? Enter its price and choose how often you expect to use it. See the estimated cost per use after one and two years, and compare with items you already track in the same category. The estimate is free for everyone. If you buy it, tap "Bought it, start tracking" to add it to your items; the free five-item limit applies. ▸ LOG FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN OR WRIST Home Screen widgets keep cost per use visible. On iOS 17 and later, tap +1 directly in the widget without opening the app. On iOS 16, jump straight to the item detail screen. You can also record with Shortcuts or Siri, or tap +1 in the companion Apple Watch app. Basic Apple Watch logging is free. ▸ SEE THE TRUE COST For a one-time purchase, cost per use is the purchase price plus recorded care and upkeep costs, divided by the number of uses. Add dry cleaning, repairs, servicing, or other maintenance costs. Enter an expected resale value to see the cost per use if you sell it at that price, and see an approximate cost per day since purchase. ▸ TRACK CLOTHES—AND EVERYTHING ELSE See cost per wear for your wardrobe, cost per visit for a gym membership, and cost per use for electronics, kitchen gear, hobbies, subscriptions, and more. Monthly and yearly subscriptions follow their billing periods, so you can see the cost per use for the current paid month or year as you log uses. ▸ FIND WHAT EARNS ITS PLACE See uses by month on each item, filter by category, or sort by least recently used. Set a goal by number of uses or by a target cost per use. Milestones and achievements keep progress clear without guilt. ▸ PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account required. Your item data is stored on your device, with optional iCloud sync for Pro users. Export JSON backups or CSV data whenever you want. Item photos stay on the device where you add them. ▸ FREE AND PRO Track up to 5 items free, including subscriptions and memberships. The free version includes the Before you buy estimate, usage logging, goals, Home Screen widgets, and data export. Add a photo to one item and one care or upkeep record per item. Worth It Pro, as a monthly or annual subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase, unlocks unlimited items, photos for more items, unlimited care and upkeep records, iCloud sync, and Apple Watch complications and stats. Annual subscription free-trial details are shown when available for your Apple ID.
