Butler keeps an eye on your subscriptions so you don't have to. Streaming, music, software, fitness, insurance: most people pay more than they think, and only notice when the charge arrives. Butler shows your monthly and yearly total at a glance, and reminds you in time. WHAT BUTLER DOES FOR YOU • Every subscription in one place, with monthly and yearly totals • Reminders before a renewal — as far ahead as you like • A warning before a cancellation deadline passes. The one date people actually miss. • A heads-up before a free trial starts charging • Costs by category, so you can see where the money goes • Price history: Butler remembers every increase • Home screen widget QUICK TO SET UP 50 well-known services are built in — Netflix, Spotify, Disney+, iCloud+ and many more. Tap, check the price, done. Anything else takes seconds to add yourself. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Butler asks for no account and no bank connection. There are no servers holding your data — everything stays on your iPhone. No tracking, no ads, nothing shared. Export your data as CSV whenever you want. FAIR PRICING Butler is free for up to 3 subscriptions — including reminders, CSV export, widgets and Face ID lock. Premium removes the limit and adds price history — once, for 4.99 EUR.
