5 Best ReSubs Alternatives (No Bank Linking)
App Comparisons · The Subgrove Team · · Updated · 5 min read
The best ReSubs alternative depends on which of its limits you hit: Subgrove if you want the same no-bank tracking in a browser and a shared household view, Trackery if you're iPhone-only and want a cheap yearly plan, Subby if you're happy on a phone and want a one-time price, and Wallos if you'd rather host it yourself.
ReSubs itself is a solid app, and it's worth being precise about what it does, because a lot of comparison pages get it wrong. Per its FAQ, it runs on iOS and Android, never asks for bank access, can sync across your phones if you create an account, and has a free plan for up to 5 subscriptions with basic reminders. Premium is sold monthly, yearly or as a one-time Lifetime purchase. It can also scan Gmail or a photo of a bill to pick up subscriptions, which most manual trackers can't.
What ReSubs doesn't do
Three gaps come straight from ReSubs' own FAQ:
- No web version. It says it is "currently available as a mobile app only — for iOS and Android. There is no web version at this time." If you want the list on a work laptop, it isn't there.
- No shared household account. Its answer on sharing is that you can export a CSV, and "currently there is no shared household account." Partners each keep their own list.
- The free plan is 5 subscriptions. Most households pass that quickly, so the real comparison is between paid plans.
If none of those bother you, there's little reason to switch.
The alternatives, compared honestly
Disclosure: Subgrove is our app. Every other entry is described from its own website or app-store listing, checked in October 2026.
1. Subgrove: web, phone and a shared household
Subgrove is manual and never connects to a bank, like ReSubs. The difference is that it's a web app you install from the browser, so the same account opens on an iPhone, an Android phone or a desktop, and Pro adds household sharing so a partner sees the same list and splits costs with you. Reminders go out by push and email before each renewal, with the lead time set per subscription.
- Pros: browser access on any computer; shared household view; 38 currencies with a separate total for each.
- Cons: no Gmail or photo import, so every entry is typed; no lifetime option.
- Pricing: free for up to 5 subscriptions with reminders; Pro is $4.99/month or $39/year. See pricing.
2. Trackery: iPhone-only, cheap yearly plan
Trackery is a private iPhone and iPad tracker with a calendar, free-trial alerts, household tagging and multi-currency with live exchange rates. Its site lists Premium at $2.99/month, $9.99/year or $49.99 lifetime, and states plainly that it's "iOS only for now." Good value if nobody in the house uses Android. More in Trackery alternatives.
3. Subby: free with ads, one-time Pro
Subby has no account and no bank login; your list lives on the phone. Since August 2026 it's on the App Store as well as Google Play, with no cap on subscriptions in the free, ad-supported version. Pro is one payment ($19.99 on US Google Play) and adds widgets, cloud backup to your own Drive or iCloud, and screenshot import. Because there's no account, two people can't share one list. See Subby alternatives.
4. Wallos: self-hosted and free
Wallos is open-source software you run on your own server. Its README lists household members, multiple currencies and notifications by email, Discord, Pushover, Telegram, Gotify or webhooks. No bank connection, no vendor. The cost is your time: installing, updating and backing it up. Our Wallos alternatives piece covers that trade.
5. Rocket Money: the opposite approach
If you're in the US and tired of typing, Rocket Money reads your bank transactions instead. Its help centre says it's "only available to users located within the United States and with U.S. based banks," and Premium is typically $7–$14/month. It's a different product from ReSubs, so read is Rocket Money safe before linking anything.

Which one fits you
Pick Subgrove if you want to check the list from a computer, or a partner needs to see and split the same subscriptions.
Pick Trackery if everyone in the house is on iPhone and you want the lowest yearly price.
Pick Subby if ads don't bother you, or you'd rather pay once for Pro.
Pick Wallos if you already run Docker at home and want to own the data outright.
Stay on ReSubs if Gmail import or a lifetime licence matters more to you than web access or sharing.
What switching from ReSubs costs you
Mostly time. ReSubs' FAQ says you can export your data as a CSV, so you keep your list in a file, but Subgrove has no importer and you should plan to re-enter subscriptions in whichever app you pick. Ten subscriptions take a few minutes. You'd also lose ReSubs' Savings Assistant and cheaper-plan suggestions, which none of these apps offer.
