I was looking at my bank statement one day and realised I was paying for 4 things I completely forgot about. Combined it was around 40 euros a month just silently leaving my account.
I'm a 17 year old developer from Cyprus and I spent the last few weeks building Capsule, a simple subscription tracker that shows you everything you pay for, alerts you before renewals, and tracks how much you save by cancelling things.
No bank connection required. You just add your subscriptions manually. Privacy first.
It's not on the Play Store yet but the waitlist is live at capsule.crickdevs.com if anyone wants early access.
Would genuinely love feedback from real people before I launch.

Subscription-tracker is the quintessential scratch-your-own-itch build, and the fact that it's a crowded space doesn't matter much - you built it because you have the problem, and "I made this for me" projects ship where market-research projects stall. The honest challenge with this category is data ingestion: parsing recurring charges out of bank/email without manual entry is the hard 20% that decides whether people actually stick with it.
Funny meta-point: a tool to track subscription creep, in a world where every AI tool is itself another monthly subscription, is on-trend in the best way - it's a symptom of the same fatigue. That fatigue is partly why I built Moonshift (a multi-agent pipeline: prompt to a shipped SaaS on your own GitHub + Vercel) on per-build pricing (~$3 flat) instead of yet another monthly seat. First run's free, no card. Nice build - did you crack automatic detection (email/bank parsing) or is it manual entry? Auto-detection is the feature that turns this from a todo-list into something genuinely sticky.
