Still paying for subscriptions you barely use? Subs.Killer is a simple subscription tracker that helps you manage prices, renewal dates, and real usage. It automatically shows your cost per use, so every monthly payment becomes easier to review. Streaming, music, gyms, cloud storage, work tools, memberships, and online services. See which recurring payments are worth keeping and which ones deserve a closer look. What Subs.Killer helps you do Track cost per use Enter the monthly price and tap "Used!" whenever you use a service. Subs.Killer calculates how much each use actually costs this month. Find review candidates Low-usage or high-cost subscriptions are organized automatically, helping you focus on the services that may be wasting money. Judge by service type Entertainment apps are reviewed by usage frequency. Cloud storage and infrastructure services are treated as fixed costs.
