Worthwell matches every subscription with proof you used it: visits to the gym, purchases at the store, minutes in the app. When the renewal comes around, you already know.
$44.98 a month is going to subscriptions that are barely used.
Three ways to count real use
Each subscription gets the kind of proof that fits it. Turn on only what you need. Every method is optional.
Visits to the places you pay for
Choose your gym, studio or car wash on a map. Worthwell counts a visit when you stay long enough, and skips the times you only drive past.
Gym or classes
20 minutes or more
Car wash or pickup
5 minutes or more
Club or coworking
45 minutes or more
One visit counts per day. Your location is used on your iPhone and never sent to Worthwell — only your visits are.
Each gym visit, with when you arrived and left.
A car wash only needs a five-minute stop.
Purchases at the merchants that count
Some memberships only pay off when you buy something. Connect your bank or card through Plaid, then choose which merchants count. For Amazon Prime, that might be Amazon and Whole Foods.
The rest of your spending stays out of it. Worthwell never sees your bank username or password.
Amazon and Whole Foods purchases, cycle by cycle.
Minutes in the apps you subscribe to
Pick the app behind a subscription with Apple’s Screen Time picker and set a goal, like 8 hours a month. Worthwell adds up your minutes day by day.
Apple keeps the apps you pick private. Worthwell gets the time for that one subscription, not your Screen Time history.
Duolingo: daily minutes toward an 8-hour goal.
A score that shows its working
After 14 days of tracking, each subscription gets a usage score out of 100: how much of your goal you reached over the last 3 months. Tap it to see the months behind the number.

Each month counts up to 100%
One busy month can’t hide two quiet ones. Yearly plans add up their last 12 months instead, so a busy month can make up for a slow one.
Only the days Worthwell saw
A day with no data is left out, not counted as zero. A month seen for half its days is judged against half the goal.
One plain verdict
75 and up is Well used, 60 to 74 Sometimes, under 60 Barely used. A short line says when use is going up or down.
Worthwell never cancels anything. The decision stays with you.
Every renewal, sorted by whether it’s earning its place
Goals shows what’s on pace this cycle. Tracking shows what’s well used and what needs a second look.
Goals: 5 of 7 on pace this cycle.
Tracking: what’s worth keeping, judged on recent months.

Questions
Which subscriptions can Worthwell track?
Worthwell finds recurring charges in the bank and card accounts you connect. For each one you can count visits, purchases at chosen merchants, or Screen Time minutes, whichever fits how you use it.
Do I have to turn on every kind of tracking?
No. Choose a method per subscription. Screen Time and location tracking are optional, and you decide which permissions to grant.
Why doesn’t a new subscription have a score yet?
A fair score needs a little history. After 14 days of tracking against a goal you’ve set, the first score appears. Until then you still see progress, and days with no data are never counted as zero use.
Will Worthwell cancel subscriptions for me?
No. Worthwell shows you how much you use each subscription. You cancel or change it with the provider, or through Apple for App Store subscriptions.
Where is Worthwell available?
Worthwell is for iPhone users in the United States aged 18 and over. Check the App Store listing for device requirements.
