Trakabo helps you stay honest about what you actually use. You have a subscription. It renews automatically. But do you actually use it? Trakabo makes that visible. Log each visit, class, session, or use, even if it was weeks ago. Over time, you'll see your real usage pattern and what each session actually costs you. That $15-a-month meditation app? You've used it twice this month. That's $7.50 per session. Is it worth it? Before your subscriptions auto-renew, Trakabo sends a reminder with the facts: the charge, the cycle's usage, and your cost per use. Then you decide: keep it, switch to a cheaper plan, or cancel. No regrets, no "I forgot I was paying for that." Features: - Log usage instantly: one tap to record a visit, session, or use. Backfill past weeks with a calendar view. - Cost per use: the single number that matters. See what you're actually paying for each session. - Renewal reminders: get nudged before each charge with usage insights so you decide consciously. - Track everything: subscriptions, gym memberships, class packs, therapy sessions, coworking passes, streaming services, prepaid vouchers, and any other recurring or prepaid service. - Usage calendar: visualize when and how often you actually used something. - Usage trends: spot patterns month-to-month so you know if your habits are changing. - Flexible sorting: organize by what's due next, how often you use it, cost per use, or monthly total. - Notes: add context to subscriptions or individual sessions (which class, with whom, why you skipped it). All your data stays on your iPhone. No account needed. Simple, private, honest.
