Expense Canary is a mobile app for iOS and Android that watches your bank accounts and tells you when a new charge arrives. Instead of asking you to build a budget or log every purchase, it focuses on the charges worth a second look: new transactions, duplicate charges, recurring subscriptions, and bank fees.
Connect your bank read-only through Plaid. Expense Canary never receives your bank login and cannot move money. Works with banks available through Plaid in the US and Canada.
Pricing: 7-day free trial, then US$4.99/mo. Available on iOS and Android.
