LemSubs vs Orbit Money

Apple-featured iOS tracker with Magic Import — our closest direct competitor

Orbit Money is a dedicated subscription tracker for iOS that has been featured by Apple and has a 4.8-star rating with 20K+ users. Unlike budgeting apps that bolt on subscription tracking, Orbit is purpose-built for the task — making it LemSubs's closest direct competitor.

Orbit's standout feature is 'Magic Import' — you can screenshot your bank statement and it uses OCR to detect subscriptions automatically. It also offers spending analytics, notifications, and a clean design. Where Orbit falls short compared to LemSubs: it's iOS-only (no web access), it lacks overlap/redundancy detection, and it doesn't include cancel guides.

LemSubs also offers a web app accessible from any device, Google Sheets sync, and team features. For iPhone users who want a polished native app experience, Orbit Money is excellent. For users who need cross-platform access, deeper optimization tools, and cancel guidance, LemSubs is more complete.

LemSubs — Subscription Tracker Without Bank Login

LemSubs is a privacy-first subscription tracker. Track every recurring charge, lifetime deal, and renewal in one place — no bank connection, no Plaid, no credentials. Free for individuals.

Built by Deepak Shukla after losing $47,000+ to forgotten renewals and zombie subscriptions across six businesses. Used by founders, freelancers, and small teams who want to know what they're actually paying for without handing a third party read access to their bank accounts.

What LemSubs does

Why no bank connection

Every other tracker on the market — Rocket Money, Mint, Bobby, Trim — asks for your bank credentials through Plaid. LemSubs does not. You add subscriptions manually, forward a receipt, or import a CSV. Your bank stays your bank.
