TrackMySubs is a web-based subscription manager aimed at people and small teams who want folders, tags and reporting. TrialBell is a privacy-first free-trial and subscription reminder for iPhone. Here's where each one genuinely wins.
Transparency: we make TrialBell, so weigh our pick accordingly. Every fact about TrackMySubs below comes from its own public listing or pricing page, checked on 29 July 2026, and we say plainly where it beats us. Where a listing simply doesn't mention a feature we write “not listed publicly” — that is not evidence the feature is missing.
The short answer
Choose TrackMySubs if you want a web dashboard, folders and tags, CSV import/export, Zapier, or multiple users on one account. Choose TrialBell if you want it on your iPhone, you don't want a recurring fee, and you care about free-trial deadlines specifically.

“Not listed publicly” means the app's own public listing doesn't advertise the feature. Only hands-on testing could settle those rows, and we haven't run it — see our open benchmark protocol.
The verdict
These barely compete. TrackMySubs is a web tool with a business flavour — folders, tags, Zapier, multiple users on the Enterprise tier — and it's priced like software you expense. TrialBell is a personal iPhone app you buy once. If you're tracking subscriptions for a company, or you want to work at a desk in a browser, TrackMySubs is built for that and TrialBell simply isn't. If you're one person who wants a reminder on your phone before a trial converts, paying $10 a month to track your subscriptions is a hard sell.
