Woke up to another $15.99 charge for a subscription I forgot to cancel.

That was somehow the third "free trial" that month that turned into a paid subscription because I lost track of the renewal date. I originally built an app to solve this in React Native, but recently decided to rewrite the entire thing from scratch in native Swift to make it feel premium, smooth, and lightweight.

I wanted something clean, visual, and fast. The new version does a few key things:

• No manual typing: You can just screenshot your free trial confirmation and the built-in AI scans it to extract the service name, price, and end date automatically.
• Smart Reminders: Redesigned notification schedules that warn you earlier for expensive subscriptions or trials that are notoriously hard to cancel.
• Direct Cancellation Links: Shows you exactly how to cancel the trial with direct links inside the detail view, so you don't have to hunt through settings.
• Visual Calendar & Analytics: See exactly when charges are hitting, track your monthly spending, and see how much you saved in the Archive.
• Separate Profiles: Let you keep work trials, personal apps, and family subscriptions organized.

I’d love to know what you think, or what features you use to stay on top of your subscriptions.

Anyone else have a graveyard of forgotten trials they're secretly paying for?

Woke up to another $15.99 Netflix charge I forgot to cancel.

That was somehow the third “free trial” that month that turned into a paid subscription, so I got annoyed enough to build something for it.

I made TrialGuard, an iOS app that tracks free trials and reminds you before they charge. You can add trials manually, use preset services, or use AI scan to pull details from a screenshot instead of typing everything in.

It also has a calendar view, smart reminders, dark mode, and an archive for cancelled trials so you can see what you avoided paying for.

Anyone else have a little graveyard of forgotten trials/subscriptions, or is that just me?

I wanted to share my latest project, OldTongue.

It’s a simple utility app for iOS that takes any modern phrase and translates it into a high-fantasy/medieval style. I built it because I was tired of boring group chats and wanted a way to make mundane updates (like being late for dinner) sound like a declaration of war.

Key Features:

• Instant "Old Tongue" translations for any text.
• Designed specifically for quick copy-pasting into messaging apps.
• Minimalist UI focused on speed.

I'd love for you guys to check it out:

And let me know what you think of the translation logic or the overall UX!

Hey everyone,

I was bored with how dry modern texting is, so I made this app called OldTongue.

Basically, you type in a normal sentence, and the app Translate/rewrites it as if you’re a Viking, a Victorian Explorer, or even a 1940s Noir Detective(Or even a Dramatic Queen lol). It’s honestly been so much fun to use for random replies in my group chats.

I’m just an indie dev looking for people to try it out and tell me what they think!

If you give it a try, let me know which translation you liked best, or if there’s a specific "voice" you think I should add next.

Hi everyone 👋

I'm currently working on a small iOS project and would really love to get some early feedback.

The idea is a "tactile ritual app", basically a translator that turns your messages into ancient voices. But instead of just using normal chat bubbles like every other AI app, I'm trying to make the design feel like a physical object. I'm playing around with leather textures, parchment, and a skeuomorphic UI to make the whole process feel more like a ritual.

I'm mainly exploring how to make this kind of "physical" design feel good on a phone, and if the animations and UI are actually cool or just annoying after a while.

The app isn't finished yet, but it's at a point where outside opinions could help shape it. If anyone has any thoughts on the design or the concept, I'd love to hear them!
