Audible vs Spotify
Audible vs Spotify — which to pick, what each costs, and how to track either (or both) for free. Add each one in two clicks, pick the price and currency you actually pay, and SubRemind shows the combined cost in your base currency on the dashboard. Both services live in the Entertainment category, so they share the same colour band on the donut chart.

FAQ
Can I track Audible and Spotify at the same time in SubRemind?
Yes. There's no limit on subscriptions or overlap between categories. Add Audible and Spotify as two separate entries; both will appear in your monthly total, your projection chart, and the upcoming-30-days list.
What if Audible bills me in a different currency than Spotify?
That's fine. SubRemind converts each subscription into your chosen base currency using live exchange rates, so a Audible sub in one currency and a Spotify sub in another will both appear correctly in your aggregate stats.
Will SubRemind tell me whether to keep Audible or Spotify?
No — SubRemind shows you the cost picture but never recommends cancellations. After running both for a month or two, look at the category donut and the upcoming-30-days view to decide which one earns its monthly cost.
Are free trials for Audible and Spotify tracked separately?
Yes. Each subscription has its own trial state. You can have Audible on a free trial while Spotify is on a paid plan; only the paid one will count toward this month's total.
