How to Manage & Cancel Subscriptions on iPhone (Step by Step)
How to Manage & Cancel Subscriptions on iPhone (Step by Step)
Every App Store subscription renews automatically — but you can manage and cancel all of them from one place in Settings. Here's the full method for reviewing your subscriptions and stopping what you don't need before it renews.
How to view all your subscriptions
- Open Settings.
- Tap your name at the top.
- Select Subscriptions.
- You'll see a list of all subscriptions: active, upcoming renewals, and expired.
How to cancel a subscription
- From the Subscriptions screen, tap the subscription you want to cancel.
- Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom.
- Confirm the cancellation.
Important: after cancellation, the subscription remains active until the paid period ends. No refund is given for the current period.
Tips not to ignore
- Review your subscriptions once a month to catch ones you've forgotten.
- Cancel at least one day before the renewal date.
- Subscriptions started directly inside certain apps (not via App Store) must be cancelled inside those apps, not from Settings.
FAQ
Is money refunded on cancellation? No — the service stays active until the paid period ends. Where are expired subscriptions? On the same Subscriptions screen, below the active list. Can I re-subscribe later? Yes, at any time.
