MyTruv scans your transaction history for charges that repeat on a schedule and gathers them all on the Recurring view, so you always know what you’re paying for.

Where to find your subscriptions

Open Recurring - that’s the dedicated home for every recurring series MyTruv detected. The Summary screen also shows an Upcoming widget with the next few bills and income at a glance. Use it for a quick peek, or open Recurring for the full list.

How subscriptions are detected

MyTruv groups charges into a recurring series when it sees the same merchant charging on a regular schedule (weekly, monthly, annual, and so on). No manual setup is needed. The detection is signal-based, not a hard-coded list of companies, so any merchant that bills you on a cadence can show up - streaming, gym, insurance, utilities, software, you name it.
MyTruv only detects and tracks subscriptions. It does not cancel them for you. To cancel, go to the merchant directly.

What you’ll see for each subscription

  • Merchant name - the company you’re subscribed to
  • Amount - what you pay per billing cycle
  • Frequency - Monthly, Weekly, Biweekly, Semi-Monthly, Annually, Semi-Annually, or Commission
  • Next expected date - when the next charge is expected, or a relative label like “Today” or “in 5 days”
  • Status - Active by default; series can also be Pending, Inactive (a long-running series that hasn’t billed lately), or Irregular (a series with inconsistent intervals)
  • Category - the spending category MyTruv assigned
To change the category of a recurring series, the path differs by platform. On iOS, open the subscription’s detail view from Recurring and change the category there - that change re-categorizes the merchant across the rest of MyTruv too. On the web, change the category from a matching transaction on the Transactions page (the Recurring detail view doesn’t have an in-place category edit).
For payment-by-payment detail, open the subscription’s detail view and see Subscription History.

Filtering and searching

The Recurring view supports filtering on both platforms, but the controls and a few details differ.
On the web - the list has its own Search field for filtering by merchant or description, plus filters for Status (All / Active / Inactive / Irregular) and Frequency. Clear all resets every active filter at once. The page also shows two totals near the top - monthly income and monthly expenses with the yearly equivalent - and the All tab groups subscriptions by category with a monthly subtotal per category (Uncategorized at the bottom).On iOS - the Recurring page has its own search box in the top bar for filtering by merchant. Filters live in a Filter panel and cover Time period, Status, Category, and Sort. Reset clears every active filter at once.
Recurring became searchable in MyTruv iOS 1.9. Before 1.9 the page had no search of its own.
The Sort control (due date or amount, ascending or descending) reorders the list in MyTruv iOS 1.7 and later. In earlier versions the control could be set but the order never changed.
On the web, and on MyTruv iOS 1.7 and earlier, the Status filter defaults to Active, so non-active series are hidden until you change it. If a subscription you remember (like a cancelled one) seems missing there, switch Status to All or Inactive.
In MyTruv iOS 1.8 and later the Status filter defaults to All, so cancelled and stopped subscriptions are already in the list and there is nothing to switch.

What the tracker helps you do

  • See every active recurring charge in one place, separate from one-off transactions
  • Spot subscriptions you may have forgotten about - on the web, after switching the Status filter to All
  • Track how much your subscriptions add up to each month
  • Anticipate upcoming charges before they hit (see Viewing Upcoming Bills)

Marking or removing a subscription yourself

If MyTruv missed a subscription, or flagged something that isn’t one, you can correct it.
On iOS (MyTruv iOS 1.8 and later) - use the in-app controls below.On the web - ask your AI assistant. It can flag a transaction as recurring, or remove a merchant from Recurring entirely if the detector got it wrong. See Meet Your AI Assistant.
  • Add a one-off charge to Recurring - open the transaction, tap the menu, and choose Add to recurring. There’s no “this one / all of them” question: one flagged charge promotes the whole merchant into a series, so it shows up on the Recurring view straight away. The action is hidden on income transactions.
  • Take a charge back out - on a recurring transaction the same menu reads Remove from recurring and asks how far it reaches. Only this transaction clears the Recurring label on that one charge; the series itself stays, and the charge is still counted in its history and upcoming totals. To stop tracking the merchant, use the option below.
  • Drop the whole series - choose All <merchant> transactions from that same prompt, or open the series from the Recurring view and use its menu’s Not recurring entry. Either one retracts a series MyTruv detected on its own, and this is the option to use when a merchant should not be tracked at all.
Removing a merchant from Recurring is sticky. The series will not be re-detected later on its own, so use it only when the detection is genuinely wrong.
Editing a detected series’ fields directly - its amount, frequency, or next expected date - isn’t possible on either platform. Those are derived from your transaction history and update on their own as new charges arrive.
Review your subscriptions every month or two. Many people are surprised to find they’re still paying for services they no longer use.
