Version 1.3
Subdue 1.3 adds on-device AI help for cancellations, trials, insights, and reminders, plus a Privacy & Data switch, smoother loading, and better iPad form layout.
On-device AI assistance
AI now helps with cancellation coaching, trial decision briefs, insight summaries, and reminder timing recommendations.
Cancellation coaching, trial briefs, summaries, and reminder timing suggestions are generated on device.
Private Services stay out of AI inputs, and all AI behavior remains local.
Shared AI surfaces now use compact, fallback-safe symbols and cleaner content layouts.
Privacy & Data controls
AI is easy to manage from Settings and stays optional after setup.
Added an AI assistance toggle under Privacy & Data.
AI is enabled by default on supported devices, then fully optional.
You can turn it off at any time without changing the rest of the app.
Smoother AI loading
AI results now arrive with a calmer, more native loading treatment.
Added shared loading placeholders for AI summaries and recommendations.
Reserved space keeps layouts stable while content is generated.
Summaries and recommendations now fade in instead of popping into view.
Better iPad forms
Readable-width screens now keep their grouped backgrounds on iPad.
Raised the readable form width used on iPad to reduce cramped layouts.
Settings and other form screens keep full-bleed grouped backgrounds without white gutters.
Spacing now feels looser without sacrificing readability.

Version 1.2
Subdue 1.2 brings redesigned widgets, an in-app review system, improved text handling, and better SVG icon reliability.
Redesigned widgets
Widgets now feature a cleaner, more Apple-inspired design with better spacing and visual hierarchy.
Rebuilt small and medium widget layouts for clearer visual separation and breathing room.
Enlarged hero brand marks and removed crowded header labels following Apple's native widget patterns.
Improved text scaling to prevent aggressive shrinking and maintain readability.
SVG icon improvements
Widgets now render service logos more reliably with better caching and fallback handling.
Replaced cache-only image pipeline with disk-backed storage for consistent icon delivery.
Increased network timeouts to ensure icons load reliably from external sources.
Added fallback rendering so SVG logos always display, even when normalization fails.
In-app review system
Subdue now asks for reviews at the right moment based on actual app engagement.
Review prompts appear after meaningful usage: 5+ launches, 7+ days, and key actions completed.
Added a 'Rate Subdue' button in Settings for manual App Store review access.
Respects 90-day cooldowns to avoid over-prompting and respects user experience.
Expanded localization
Review-related strings and settings are now localized across all 9 supported languages.
Added localized 'Rate Subdue' and 'About' sections for all supported locales.
Maintains consistent experience across Bosnian, German, English, Spanish, French, Croatian, Italian, Japanese, and Portuguese.
Keeps all new features accessible in your preferred language.

Version 1.0
Subdue 1.0 brings the core experience into one calm place: track subscriptions, catch trial deadlines, see upcoming charges, understand recurring spending, and keep sensitive services handled with care.
Track subscriptions in one place
Subdue starts with a clean library that keeps recurring services easy to add, review, and update.
Add preset or custom services without losing flexibility.
Save billing details, categories, notes, beneficiary, icon, and color.
Edit services later, reactivate them, or mark them for cancellation when plans change.
Stay ahead of trial deadlines
Trial status stays visible so free trials do not quietly turn into paid charges.
Track trial dates and current trial status in one place.
Use the trial control center to see what needs attention next.
Keep trial reminders available for free from day one.
See upcoming charges before they hit
The app keeps your next payments readable at a glance instead of buried in a long list.
See upcoming charges and next payment timing service by service.
Review monthly run rate and pending cancellation exposure in the summary view.
Keep original currencies while viewing totals in your preferred display currency.
Understand recurring spending clearly
Subdue keeps insights simple instead of pushing you into a dense finance dashboard.
Start with a free 30-day view of recurring spending trends.
Keep the same clear interface when reviewing totals, changes, and timing.
Use longer insight windows in Premium when you need more range.
Keep standard data synced and sensitive data private
Version 1.0 is built around local storage, free iCloud sync for standard services, and stronger separation for private ones.
Standard services can sync and restore across devices with iCloud.
Private services stay device-only and remain outside shared sync and analytics flows.
Sensitive services can stay protected with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode.
Unlock deeper control with Premium
The free version stays useful on its own. Premium adds more range and more decision support when you want it.
Unlock 90-day and 365-day insights for a broader view of recurring spending.
Preview savings before canceling, downgrading, or changing billing cycles with the Impact Simulator.
