I made a subscription tracker that doesn't need your bank login or an account

Most apps in this space want to connect to your bank or at minimum create an account. I didn't want either of those things so I just built one that stores everything locally on your phone.
You add your subscriptions manually, it shows your monthly total, and it reminds you 3 days before anything renews. That's it. No account, no sync, no ads.
Still building it - collecting early interest here.

Genuinely looking for feedback on whether the reminder timing is right (3 days before) or if people want more control over that. Would love brutal opinions.

Didn’t want this post to come across as promo-y, so I left the link out. But if anyone wants the tracker/reminder thing I mentioned, I’m happy to share it.

Found out I was paying $340/month in subscriptions.

I thought it was maybe $60. Checked my bank statement last month properly for the first time in a while. Found Netflix, Spotify, two different cloud storage plans, an Adobe subscription I haven't opened since college, a VPN I set up once for a flight, and four other things I genuinely could not explain.
I knew subscriptions add up. I didn't think it was that bad.
The annoying part isn't even the money - it's that none of these services warned me. They just quietly renewed and moved on.
I've been using a notes app to track it since then, which is embarrassing. Started building something simple for this because I couldn't find an app that didn't want my bank login or email signup just to show me a list. It's just a local tracker with renewal reminders. Nothing fancy.

Curious if anyone else has done this audit and been surprised. What was your number?
