Americans everywhere are dealing with subscription fatigue. A report by the financial experts at the Motley Fool found that 57% of respondents to their survey believe they are overpaying for subscriptions and 40% say they have too many.
The worst part is checking your bank account and find you’re being charged for a subscription or service that you don’t even use.
A fast way to cut back on your subscription payments is to unsubscribe to services on your phone. Content strategist Marvelle Reed, aka the “Marketing Misfit,” recently shared a video on TikTok explaining how to see what you’ve subscribed to on your iPhone and cancel the services you don’t need.
“If you’ve got a bunch of charges coming from Apple that you don’t know where they came from or you don’t know why they still trying to charge you and you want to cancel all them checks, this is what you do,” Reed opens the video.

The video was a big help to those who discovered they were being charged for services they didn’t need. “You are sent from heaven!!! The way I was just talking about all the random charges on my credit card that I can’t keep up with. Thank you, my friend!!” Summertime wrote. “Thanks for this. There were two charges for an app that I canceled,” Aailyahalexis added.
Reed’s post is also a great reminder for everyone, even if they don’t have an iPhone, to check their bank account once a month for unnecessary services or subscriptions and those that may have raised their prices. In a world where an increasing number of services are on a subscription model, staying one step ahead of unnecessary charges is a big part of staying financially fit.
