✨Beyond renewals, MiRicordi also remembers medications, appointments, the shopping list and birthdays and much more.
A renewal reminder app for the dates that cost money
Most renewals are designed to happen quietly. Insurance rolls over, a subscription renews, a membership continues — and the price is usually higher than the one you originally agreed. The only way to stay in control is to know the date before the provider acts on it.
MiRicordi keeps every renewal in one list with an advance warning attached. Car insurance, home insurance, breakdown cover, TV licence, passport and driving licence, gym membership, broadband and streaming subscriptions: each one gets a date and a reminder set as early as you like.
Set the warning a few weeks out and you get the thing that matters most: time. Time to compare quotes, to cancel something you no longer use, or simply to renew calmly instead of discovering the charge on a bank statement.
Renewals are designed to happen without you
Auto-renewal is convenient for the provider and expensive for the customer. The introductory price ends, the new one applies, and unless you knew the date you find out afterwards.
The fix is unglamorous but effective: a list of renewal dates with a warning attached to each one.
The renewals worth writing down
Not everything needs a reminder, but these almost always repay one:
- car and home insurance
- breakdown cover and travel insurance
- TV licence and broadband contracts
- passport and driving licence expiry
- gym and club memberships
- streaming and software subscriptions
How much notice actually helps
For anything you might switch, three to four weeks is the sweet spot: long enough to compare quotes, short enough that the prices you find are still the ones you will pay.
For documents like a passport, months rather than weeks — renewal times vary and travel plans rarely wait.
Renewal reminders — common questions
Can I be reminded before a subscription renews?
Yes. Add the renewal date with a few days or weeks of notice, and repeat it monthly or yearly to match the subscription.
Does MiRicordi cancel subscriptions for me?
No. MiRicordi reminds you in time so you can decide and act yourself. It never connects to your bank or your accounts.
Is MiRicordi free?
Yes. MiRicordi is free to download from Google Play and the reminder features come at no cost.
Also useful: expiry date reminders, bill reminders, document storage.
Frequently asked questions
Can I get a reminder before my insurance auto-renews?
Yes. Add the renewal date and choose how much notice you want — three or four weeks is usually enough to compare quotes before the policy rolls over.
Can I keep the policy document with the reminder?
Yes. You can photograph or attach the document so the paperwork and the date stay together.
Do renewals repeat every year automatically?
Yes. Set a reminder to repeat yearly and it comes back on its own, without being re-entered.
Is MiRicordi available for iPhone?
MiRicordi is currently available for Android only and can be downloaded from Google Play. The iPhone version is on the way.
