UK prices and free tiers, side by side

Prices are from the UK App Store. "Last update" is the date of the newest version on the store, which tells you whether anyone is still working on the app.

Manual subscription trackers: your bank stays out of it

With these four you type each subscription in once. They never see your bank, so they can't find a charge you forgot, but they also can't leak your transactions.

Burn

Start with what Burn can't do. It can't find subscriptions, because it never sees your bank, and it can't cancel anything. It has no import either, so you add each one by hand.

What it does: you pick from 222 services with their real logos, or add a custom one, then set the price, billing cycle and next date in any currency. Home turns the lot into one monthly figure, plus what that is per day, week and year. Mark a subscription as a free trial and Burn reminds you the day before it turns paid. Change a price and the old one stays in the history, so Netflix shows £10.99 → £12.99 instead of quietly becoming the new normal.

Free covers 5 subscriptions, and reminders, totals and price history are all in the free version. Pro is £8.99 a year or £19.99 once and adds unlimited subscriptions, widgets, a monthly budget, iCloud Sync and CSV export. No account, no ads, no analytics.

Bobby

Bobby, by Yummygum, has been on the App Store since March 2016, which makes it the veteran here. You pick from hundreds of preset services or make your own, and it tells you when a bill is due. Upgrades on the UK store are one-off: "Unlock Subscription Limit" is £0.99 and the "All-in-one Pack v2" is £2.99. Nothing renews. It comes in 9 languages.

The catch is the update history. The newest version, 3.10.4, came out on 9 December 2025, more than ten months before we checked.

ReSubs

The biggest free tier we found. The listing promises unlimited subscriptions for free, with renewal reminders, trial alerts, several currencies, CSV import and cloud sync, in 36 languages. It's actively developed: version 1.38.2 shipped on 29 September 2026.

Two things to know. Premium comes as weekly, monthly, yearly and one-off options, so read the paywall carefully. And its App Store privacy label lists identifiers under "Data Used to Track You", which Burn's doesn't.

Subby

Several apps are called Subby. This one is "Subby - Subscription Manager" by Mikolaj Piech, first released in December 2025. It's the closest to Burn: 5 subscriptions free, no bank link, data kept on your device. It does two things Burn doesn't: separate profiles, and billing cycles beyond weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly, including every two weeks and custom. It's English only. Pro on the UK store is £2.99 a week, £24.99 a year or £44.99 for life.

Bill organisers and bank-linked apps

Chronicle

Chronicle has been around since November 2012 and is a bill organiser more than a subscription tracker. It's built for council tax and energy as much as Netflix, keeps your payment history and confirmation numbers, and has a Mac version that syncs. Chronicle Pro, £14.99 and auto-renewing, adds a 12-month forecast and sync you can share with a partner. It's English only and its descriptions talk in dollars, which tells you who it was written for.

Emma and Snoop

These are UK budgeting apps, not subscription trackers. You connect your bank accounts and cards, and they pick the recurring payments out of your transactions. That's the one thing no manual tracker can do: find the £4.99 a month you signed up for in 2023 and forgot. Snoop will also warn you when your balance might not cover the bills coming up.

The price is your bank login, and the useful parts are paid. Emma plans start at £4.99 a month. Snoop Plus is £4.99 a month or £31.99 a year.

Is there a free subscription tracker app in the UK?

Yes, but "free" means something different in each one:

• ReSubs: unlimited subscriptions, free, according to its listing.
• Burn and Subby: free for up to 5 subscriptions, with reminders included.
• Bobby: free to download, with a limit you can lift for £0.99, once.
• Emma and Snoop: free to download, with the best parts on monthly plans.

A spreadsheet and calendar reminders cost nothing at all. Here's how to track subscriptions for free that way.

How to choose a subscription tracker app

1. Should it find subscriptions for you? Only a bank-linked app can, and it needs your bank login. Otherwise go manual and do one sweep of 12 months of statements yourself.
2. How many do you have? Count them before you choose. ReSubs is unlimited for free; Burn and Subby stop at 5.
3. Do you start free trials? A reminder the day before a trial turns paid saves more money than a renewal reminder. Check the app does both.
4. Where will you look at it? Chronicle has a Mac app. Burn, ReSubs and Subby run on iPad.
5. How do you want to pay? Paying a subscription to track subscriptions annoys people. Bobby sells one-off packs, and Burn has a lifetime option.

Then read the App Store privacy label. It says what each app collects and whether any of it is used to track you.
