Recurred keeps every subscription and recurring bill in one place — no bank login, no account, no ads. Add what you pay for, and Recurred tells you what's coming, what it really costs you per year, and what you should probably cancel. Now a true native Mac app, too — not a stretched-up iPhone app. The same tracker, at home on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Every feature unlocked. No subscription required to track your subscriptions. WHAT YOU GET • Every renewal on a calendar. See which day money actually leaves your account, and get reminders before a renewal or a free trial converts — at the lead time and hour you choose. • The bills you pay by hand. Flag rent, utilities or an invoice as manual, then mark each charge paid when you pay it — and log what it actually cost when the amount moves. Let one slip and it turns up as overdue on Home, in Analytics, and on your widgets, with a reminder the day after. • See it without opening the app. Two home screen widgets: one for the payments about to land, one for how this month is tracking against what you usually spend. Both lead with anything overdue. • Any currency, one total. Track each subscription in the currency you're billed in and see the combined total in yours, with exchange rates kept up to date. • Cancel what you don't use. The Optimizer tracks how often you actually open each service over a set period, then shows you which ones to cut and how much you'd save a year. • Know where the money goes. Monthly and yearly breakdowns by category, your top spenders, and a 3-year payment timeline built from what you really paid — not today's price. • Look ahead. Open any upcoming month to see what's due. Useful when a few annual bills happen to land in the same week. • Price history that remembers. Log every increase and see what those "small" changes have added up to. • Add subscriptions in seconds. Pick from hundreds of popular services with their logos and colors, plus a Bills & Home set for rent, utilities and the rest — or just describe your subscriptions in plain English and Recurred fills in the details, processed entirely on your device (on Apple Intelligence–capable devices). Importing a CSV works too. • Private by default. Your data stays on your device and syncs only through your own iCloud. No account, no ads, no tracking, nothing sold. • Built the way an Apple app should be. Fully native on iPhone, iPad, and Mac — dark mode first, and every screen works with Dynamic Type and VoiceOver. No web views, no clutter. • In your language. English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Ukrainian, with prices, dates and numbers written the way your language writes them. Download Recurred and get your subscriptions under control. Recurred is not affiliated with any brands shown. Logos are used for identification only.
