About

SubTrack

Features

SubTrack finds the subscriptions hiding in your receipts and turns them into one honest monthly number, without asking for your bank password. Hand it receipts - share one from Mail, Safari, Photos or Files, or pick saved receipts (.eml, PDF, text or a screenshot) from the Files app - and choose how far back to look. SubTrack reads them on your iPhone, finds recurring charges, and lets you confirm, edit or reject each one before it counts. A screenshot or a photo of a receipt is read on your iPhone too. Nothing is uploaded. SubTrack cannot open your mailbox and never asks to. ONE NUMBER, FIRST • Weekly, monthly and yearly charges worked out into a single monthly figure, per currency • An annual projection, and a calendar of what has been charged and what is expected • Works offline once your receipts are in PRICE CHANGES, WITH EVIDENCE • Compares each new charge with earlier receipts and shows when the amount changed • Every price change points back to the two receipts that prove it FREE TRIALS • Note a free trial and get a reminder before it ends. A trial is a date worth knowing, never part of your monthly figure YOU STAY IN CONTROL • A review queue: nothing affects your total until you confirm it • Add a subscription by hand when it never sends a receipt • Rename a subscription, combine two that are really one, remove a receipt, and search or sort your list • Mark a subscription paused or ended so it stops counting • A cancellation checklist you keep yourself, and a link to the merchant's own account page. SubTrack never cancels anything for you. • Optional alerts before renewals and trial ends, and when a price changes, scheduled on your iPhone • Light, Dark or Match iPhone ON IPHONES WITH APPLE INTELLIGENCE • Apple's on-device model can suggest a reading for a receipt SubTrack's own rules cannot read. A suggestion is marked "Suggested by the on-device AI", and nothing counts until you confirm it • Ask SubTrack answers a question about your own subscriptions on your iPhone, from your confirmed list only PRIVATE BY DEFAULT • No bank connection. No account. No analytics. • Receipts are read on your iPhone; only the details it finds are kept, never the message • Export to CSV, or delete everything SubTrack has stored, at any time Not sure yet? Add four made-up sample receipts and watch how review and price changes work, before you use your own.
