Recur is a calm, private subscription tracker. You add what you pay for by hand — no bank login, no account, nothing leaving your phone — and Recur turns it into a clear picture of your recurring spend. WHY PEOPLE USE RECUR • See your real monthly and yearly subscription cost at a glance • Get a renewal reminder days before you are charged • Find the subscriptions you barely use and cancel them in time • Keep everything private: your data never leaves your device NO BANK CONNECTION. EVER. Most subscription managers want to link your bank account before they show you anything. Recur never asks. You type in what you pay, and that is the whole setup — no sign-up, no password, no server holding your financial history. It takes about ten seconds per subscription. TRACK ANY RECURRING PAYMENT Streaming, music, cloud storage, software, AI tools, gym memberships, insurance, news, mobile plans, domains, hosting, gaming — if it bills you again and again, Recur tracks it. Monthly and yearly billing cycles are supported. REAL SPENDING INSIGHTS — FREE The Insights tab breaks your spend down by category, shows what you pay per month and per year, and ranks your most expensive subscriptions. It also builds a short list of subscriptions worth reconsidering, based on how often you tell Recur you actually use them. Totals are grouped by currency and shown in the currency you were billed in. Recur does not invent exchange rates, so the numbers you see are the numbers you actually pay. RENEWAL REMINDERS THAT RESPECT YOU Choose how many days ahead you want to be warned. Recur sends a single, quiet notification before a renewal, scheduled entirely on your device — no push server involved. No badges nagging you, no daily alerts, no streaks to keep. 110+ CURRENCIES, 70+ LANGUAGES Recur speaks more than 70 languages — very likely yours — and supports over 110 currencies. DESIGNED TO BE CALM A premium, minimal interface with full light and dark themes. No clutter, no gamification, no pressure to engage — just a clear answer to the question "what am I actually paying for?" FREE AND PREMIUM The free version includes up to 10 subscriptions, renewal reminders, the complete Insights tab and all 110+ currencies. It is supported by ads. Recur Premium unlocks: • Unlimited subscriptions • No ads at all • Cloud backup to your own iCloud, so a new iPhone restores in seconds • JSON export and import — your data stays yours Premium is available monthly, yearly, or as a one-time lifetime purchase.
