Return on Subscription
What returns do my consumer subscriptions actually generate in my life?
A personal audit tool for your digital subscriptions.
Changelog
Inputs are now validated before scoring runs, so the app no longer produces misleading results from incomplete data. The share feature has a safeguard to prevent half-finished audits from being shared. Mobile interactions are tighter, and the backend scoring heuristics are more reliable overall.
The tool now automatically calculates how much you'd need to use each subscription to justify the cost — no manual math required. You can also export your full audit or share it as a link, which makes it easier to compare notes or document a decision to cancel.
Scores, verdicts, and subscription lists are now saved locally, so your work doesn't disappear when you close the tab or refresh. The tool picks up exactly where you left off.
Added four preset spend profiles so you can explore the tool without entering your own data first. Also improved how the mobile layout handles the verdict panel, all-time spend view, and charts.
Added the ability to sort the timeline forward or backward, so you can look at spending history from either end — earliest first or most recent. Small change, but it makes the view significantly more useful.
Started asking: what does someone actually spend on apps and subscriptions over time, and does any of it feel worth it? Began sketching a tool to make that visible and a little easier to reason about.
