Feature guide
Manual tracking is slower once, safer every day after.
Manual entry is not a compromise for DropSub; it is the reason the app can stay local-first and avoid collecting a private map of your recurring spending.
How DropSub helps
- Add subscriptions by name, amount, currency, billing cycle, and renewal date.
- Use starter templates to make setup faster.
- Keep notes and custom tasks for special cases.
- Avoid bank, email, and account permissions entirely.
What stays inside the app
DropSub's website confirms support and explains the workflow. Exact cancellation URLs, service-specific steps, regional overrides, and retention scripts stay inside the app so users get the complete context in one place.
DropSub uses publicly reviewable guide data and local user-entered records. Services can change prices, support channels, regional rules, and cancellation screens without warning, so users should double-check auto-filled fields and any guide notes before relying on them.
Frequently asked questions
Why not use bank sync?
Bank sync can be convenient, but it requires sensitive access. DropSub is built for users who do not want that tradeoff.
Is manual entry still useful?
Yes. Once your main subscriptions are entered, reminders, totals, and cancel planning do the ongoing work.
