Before you pay
Check an app before you hand over a card
Paste the web address of an app you are about to subscribe to. We look at its public page and report what it says — and what it does not say — about cancelling, contacting a human, and who the company actually is.
The app’s web address
What this is, and what it is not
How people get caught
Knowing that a page has no cancellation link only helps if you know why that matters.
The free trial that quietly becomes a subscription
You gave a card to prove you were real. The trial ended and the charges started, and nobody told you the date.
Cancelling that never quite completes
The button exists. It leads to a form, then an offer, then a chat window that is closed, and the subscription is still running.
The debit order that outlives the app
A recurring charge continues after the account is deleted, the app is removed, or the company has stopped answering.
An app with nobody behind it
No email that answers, no telephone number, no company name — so a dispute has nowhere to go.
The price that only settles once you are inside
The headline figure is monthly-if-you-pay-yearly, exclusive of tax, for the first period only — and none of that is on the button.
