SubWise helps you see exactly what you're spending on subscriptions โ€” without connecting your bank or creating an account. Track Netflix, Spotify, ChatGPT, iCloud, gym memberships, and every other recurring charge in one clean dashboard. The average person spends over $200/month on subscriptions but thinks they spend $86. SubWise closes that gap. TRACK EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE Add subscriptions manually or scan receipts with the built-in AI scanner. SubWise auto-fills details for 168+ popular services โ€” just type a name and we handle the rest. SEE YOUR REAL SPENDING The dashboard shows your total monthly and yearly spend with a clear category breakdown. Entertainment, AI tools, cloud storage, fitness โ€” see exactly where your money goes with the interactive donut chart. NEVER MISS A RENEWAL The calendar view shows every upcoming charge. Get smart notifications before renewals hit so you can cancel what you don't need โ€” before you're charged. FREE TRIAL PROTECTION Mark any subscription as a free trial and SubWise will alert you before it converts to a paid plan. Never forget to cancel a trial again. 50+ CURRENCIES SUPPORTED Track subscriptions in USD, AED, EUR, GBP, SAR, and 50+ other currencies. SubWise converts everything to your home currency automatically. WIDGETS & LIVE ACTIVITIES See your monthly spend right on your home screen. Track trial countdowns on the Dynamic Island without opening the app. SPOT PRICE INCREASES SubWise detects when a service raises its price and shows you the annual impact. Know exactly how much more you're paying. EXPORT YOUR DATA Export your subscription data as CSV or PDF reports. Your data, your way. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No bank access. No account required. No data collected. Everything stays on your device with optional iCloud sync across your Apple devices. We can't see your data because we never have it. SubWise Pro unlocks unlimited subscriptions, AI receipt scanning, premium widgets, spending trends, and data export for a one-time purchase of $6.99. No subscription required โ€” because the irony would be unbearable. Made with care in Abu Dhabi.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SubWise at none against Tally's 1. On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
