Don't Charge Me Bro tracks your free trials and subscriptions and warns you before each one charges. Add what you're signed up for, and the app counts down to every renewal date so that none of them arrive as a surprise. WHAT YOU TRACK Free trials, monthly subscriptions, and annual plans. Enter the name, the amount, and the date it bills — that's the whole setup. Tell it whether a trial turns monthly or yearly, and once it bills it keeps warning you every cycle after that. Amounts show in your own currency. WARNED BEFORE IT CHARGES Trials and monthly charges get three days' notice, then a day, then the morning of, then a final 8pm last call while the money is still yours. Annual plans — the ones that really hurt — start their countdown two weeks out. Every reminder is scheduled with iOS, so they arrive whether or not you've opened the app in weeks. THE PANIC SCREEN Every reminder carries the name, the amount, and how long you have left, plus buttons that drop you straight into the app. There you get the deadline in huge letters and a button that opens the cancel page for the big streaming, software and news services, or Apple's subscriptions page for anything you started in the App Store, while there is still time to use it. PICK HOW MEAN IT IS Three roast levels. Mild is a polite heads-up. Unhinged is your phone screaming that Netflix is outside your house. Change it whenever you like. THE REAL NUMBER Your total monthly drain across everything you've added, counted as though the free parts have already stopped being free. It is never the number you assumed. CLAIM THE W Cancel in time and the app hands you a trophy card showing the exact charge you dodged, adds it to your lifetime savings, and keeps your win streak alive. Share the card if you want the credit. THE HALL OF SHAME Let a charge through and it lands in the Hall of Shame, ranked by how much you have donated to companies you forgot about. Stickers unlock along the way — first cancellation, ten wins, a cancel with zero days to spare, a flawless month. FREE TO START, NEVER A SUBSCRIPTION Track three at a time for free, forever. Want more? One purchase unlocks unlimited, for good. It never renews, so there is nothing to forget. No ads. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE No account, no sign-in, no card details. No server, no analytics, no trackers. The app works entirely offline, and nothing leaves your phone except to your own iCloud, which we can't see. That copy is what brings your list back on a new phone or after a reinstall. Signed out of iCloud? Then it stays on the device alone, and you can export it as a file whenever you like. Don't Charge Me Bro is a reminder, not a cancellation service. You cancel with the company that bills you; the app makes sure you never miss the date.
