LemSubs vs Bobby
Beautiful iOS subscription tracker, but limited to one platform with no analytics
Bobby is one of the most beautifully designed subscription trackers on iOS, with a 4.7-star rating and 7.9K+ reviews on the App Store. It focuses on doing one thing well: giving you a clean, visual list of your subscriptions with monthly and yearly totals.
Bobby does include bill due date notifications, custom icons, and currency support. However, Bobby is iOS-only with no web version, meaning you can't check your subscriptions from a computer. It also lacks any analytics — no spend trends, no category breakdowns, no optimization suggestions.
Bobby recently moved from a one-time $1.99 purchase to a free model with in-app purchases. For iPhone users who want a gorgeous, minimal subscription list, Bobby is excellent. For users who want cross-platform access, spend analytics, overlap detection, and cancel guides, LemSubs is the more complete tool.
