App subscriptions aren’t labeled when they hit your bank account, and if you’re not aware that you can find all your subs in a single location (App Store>Your user icon>subscriptions), you might post a silly meme about it.

With that said, thanks to OP, I found out I have $10 a month still going to PTCG Pocket even though I stopped playing that earlier this year.

..... People actually do app subscriptions? Not a meme, I'm actually asking because that sounds crazy to me.

I outright bought Serif’s Affinity suite of programs. Then Canva bought Serif, delisted the original Affinity apps, and made the new programs subscription-only. If ever my iPad dies, goodbye paid-for programs. Sometimes you don’t have a choice.

Most of the apps you’ve bought you can still download even if they’ve been delisted, note the AOL apps here. The only reason you can’t re-download them like the one in the middle here is if it no longer works on the modern OSs.

Just go to AppStore>User Icon>App & Purchase History.

Useful, thanks!

I have a weather app that I like to support. It’s only once a year. My only other subscription is music.

I pay $4 a year to the dude who developed parcel - it lets me track packages through mutiple couriers. Been running it since covid, just starting to get to the amount I woulda paid a one-off price for it.

Sure. I subscribe to Watch Duty so I get better data layers for west coast USA wildfires. I also subscribe to spotify because I haven't been able to wean myself off it yet. There are a few select apps that make sense to subscribe to for "premium" benefits. Most aren't, for sure.
