Apple's App Store and Google Play process billions in subscription revenue, yet most users cannot name half the apps charging their account. The billing is centralized, which makes the charges invisible on a bank statement — they all appear as 'APPLE.COM/BILL' or 'GOOGLE*App Name'.
How to find every Apple subscription
- Open Settings, tap your name at the top.
- Tap 'Subscriptions' under your Apple ID.
- Scroll through every active and expired subscription.
- Tap each one to see the renewal date, price, and cancel option.
How to find every Google Play subscription
- Open Google Play Store, tap your profile icon.
- Select 'Payments & subscriptions', then 'Subscriptions'.
- Review every active subscription and its price.
- Tap 'Manage' on any subscription to cancel, pause, or switch plans.
If you want one place for renewals, categories, and household spend, Recurno tracks every recurring charge without a spreadsheet.
Why app subscriptions surprise people
- Free trials convert silently after 3–7 days.
- Annual subscriptions renew at full price with no notification from the store.
- Family Sharing can hide a child's in-app subscriptions under the organizer's bill.
- Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.
After auditing your app store subscriptions, add the active ones to Recurno with their renewal dates. The app store gives you one place to manage them; Recurno gives you one place to see them alongside credit card subscriptions, streaming, and everything else.
Frequently asked questions
How do I see all my Apple subscriptions?+
Open Settings, tap your name at the top, then tap Subscriptions. This lists every active and expired subscription billed through your Apple ID, including apps, streaming services, and iCloud storage.
Why do app subscriptions appear as Apple charges on my statement?+
Apple processes all App Store subscription payments centrally. Regardless of the app developer, the charge on your bank statement appears as APPLE.COM/BILL, which means you cannot identify the specific app from the bank statement alone.
Does deleting an app cancel its subscription?+
No. Deleting an app from your device does not cancel any active subscription tied to it. You must cancel through the App Store or Google Play subscription settings, or the charges continue indefinitely.
