Usages Pro, an auto-renewable subscription, connects every provider and turns on every alert: thresholds you choose, window resets, run-out forecasts, pace, budget and your daily goal.

OAuth tokens and Admin API keys are stored in the iOS Keychain. Usage history, settings, and imported summaries stay on your device, and can optionally sync through your own private iCloud.

Usages is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any supported service provider. Available metrics vary by provider and account type.
