About

Subscription Manager Ace

Subscriptions and recurring plans are increasing year by year. Video, music, cloud storage, AI, apps, learning, shopping, mobile services, and more. Before you know it, you may be subscribed to many different services every month. Subscriptions are a very convenient way to use services that would otherwise be expensive at a more affordable price. At the same time, it is easy to lose track of things: “When does this renew?”, “I forgot when the free trial ends,” or “I no longer use this, but forgot to cancel.” SubscriptionAce was created from the developer’s own experience to be the easiest and most enjoyable subscription management app ever. ■ One of Largest Subscription Databases Use templates for popular services and apps to quickly enter service names, prices, billing intervals, and more. You can also manually add services that are not yet in the template database, and even suggest them for future inclusion. ■ Intuitive and Easy Subscription Management Your registered subscriptions are displayed as easy-to-read cards. Manage renewal dates, prices, plans, free trials, ratings, notes, and more in one place. Swipe right to edit or open the service website, and swipe left to end or delete a subscription. Simple and intuitive. ■ “Pulsing” Alerts as Renewal Dates Approach Subscriptions nearing their renewal date are shown with intuitive colors and pulsing motion. In addition to blue, yellow, and red urgency colors, a heartbeat-like pulse gently tells you, “It may be time to check this.” ■ Check Past and Future Payments in the Calendar The calendar screen lets you review past payment records and upcoming billing schedules by month. You can see at a glance when each subscription is scheduled to be charged. ■ Rate Importance and Review More Easily You can rate the importance of each subscription with stars. This makes it easier to organize which services you truly want to keep and which ones may be worth reviewing. ■ Analysis Features That Make It Easy to Ask AI Based on your current subscription status, SubscriptionAce organizes useful information for reviewing and deciding what to continue. You can also ask your favorite AI app, such as ChatGPT or Gemini, for advice. Subscriptions can make everyday life more convenient and enjoyable. SubscriptionAce helps you comfortably continue the subscriptions you need, while properly reviewing the ones you no longer use. Make your subscription life clearer and more enjoyable. Manage all your recurring plans with SubscriptionAce.
