Hi there selfhosters.
I was looking for a self hosted open source subscription tracker for a while and since I could not find what I wanted, I decided to try to build it myself.
I used mobile apps like Billbot but the data would only be accessible on that device. I’ve also found a few web based services but would require a subscription, and the reason I wanted a subscription tracker was to get an overview of my subscriptions and start saving money by cancelling unneeded or redundant services.
Since I am using so many open source and self hosted projects I decided to try to give something back and this is how Wallos was born.
I’m not happy with the UI yet, it was my first time developing a project without a designer, but I don’t hate it either.

The development cycle might not be the fastest, since I work a full time job and have a baby, but I’ll do the best I can.
Thank you and hoping the tool can be useful to someone else.
None really. You can probably do much more advanced stuff with a spreadsheet.
For me it’s just easier to visualise it this way and I am not very familiar with spreadsheets.
That’s both a really honest answer and a good reason to use it depending on the person. Nice work.
I will very likely be firing up an instance of this specifically because of how it looks and how simple it is. I don’t want to deal with a spreadsheet and don’t need anything all that fancy. This is perfect!
