Find answers to the most common questions about Subflix.
What is Subflix?
Subflix is a free, privacy-first subscription manager designed to help you track recurring expenses, visualize your spending habits, and control your budget without sharing your personal data.
Is it really free?
Yes, Subflix is 100% free to use. There are no hidden fees, premium plans, or paywalls.
Do I need to create an account?
No account is needed. Since Subflix runs entirely in your browser and stores data locally on your device, there is no need to sign up or log in.
How does the Bank Statement Import work?
Our import feature runs 100% locally in your browser. When you select your bank statement (CSV), the file is processed instantly on your device to identify subscriptions. No financial data is ever uploaded to any server or seen by us.
Where is my data stored?
Your data stays in IndexedDB on this device. Subflix does not maintain its own database with your subscriptions. If you enable Google Drive, only an encrypted vault is stored in the app's private area in your account.
How do I backup or move my data?
From Data, you can export and import JSON manually or connect Google Drive. Drive sync compares both copies before applying changes, combines compatible edits, and asks you to resolve conflicts. Keep your recovery code or password to open the vault on another device.
What are Subscription Moods?
Moods allow you to rate how you feel about each subscription (from Very Unsatisfied to Very Satisfied). This helps you identify which services bring value to your life and which ones might be worth cancelling.
How do I install the app?
Subflix is a Progressive Web App (PWA). You can install it on your phone or computer directly from the browser. On iOS, tap 'Share' > 'Add to Home Screen'. On Android/Chrome, tap the menu and select 'Install App'.
