The Calm Subscription Pattern

Calm subscriptions are frequently maintained out of intention rather than use. The app is downloaded during a stressful period, used heavily for 2–4 weeks, and then opened less and less frequently — but the subscription continues.

Apply the 30-day test: How many times did you open Calm this month? If fewer than 4–5, the cost-per-session math doesn't justify the subscription.

Log it in Gravity and decide deliberately at the next renewal rather than auto-renewing by default.
