How do I cancel subscriptions on Android?

Open Google Play Store → tap profile icon → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → select the subscription → Cancel subscription. This works for any app purchased through Google Play.

Why doesn't my subscription show up in Google Play?

If you signed up on a company's website rather than through the Google Play Store, it won't appear in your Play Store subscriptions. You'll need to cancel directly on their website or check your bank statement for all recurring charges.

Can I get a refund for an Android subscription?

Google offers refunds within 48 hours of purchase for most subscriptions. Go to play.google.com/store/account, find the order, and request a refund. After 48 hours, you'll need to contact the app developer directly.

How to Cancel Subscriptions on Android (2026 Guide)

Android makes it easy to accumulate subscriptions — a free trial here, a premium upgrade there — but canceling them isn't always obvious. Here's how to find and cancel every subscription on your Android phone.

Method 1: Cancel Google Play subscriptions

This covers any subscription you purchased through an app on the Google Play Store.

Open the Google Play Store app
Tap your profile icon in the top right
Tap Payments & subscriptions
Tap Subscriptions
Select the subscription you want to cancel
Tap Cancel subscription
Follow the prompts and confirm

Note: You'll keep access until the end of your current billing period. Deleting the app does NOT cancel the subscription — you must cancel through Google Play.

Method 2: Cancel via Google Play website

Go to play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions
Sign in with your Google account
Find the subscription and click Cancel

This is useful if you no longer have the phone but still have the Google account.

What about subscriptions NOT through Google Play?

Just like iPhone, many subscriptions bypass the app store entirely. If you signed up on a website — Netflix, Spotify, gym memberships, news sites — those won't appear in Google Play.

The only way to find ALL your subscriptions is to check your bank statement.

Method 3: Find every subscription with your bank statement

Download your bank statement as CSV or PDF
Upload it to Just Cancel

Common mistakes when canceling on Android

Deleting the app doesn't cancel the subscription. This is the #1 mistake. You'll keep getting charged.
Using the wrong Google account. If you have multiple Google accounts, the subscription might be under a different one. Check all of them.
Forgetting about Samsung subscriptions. Samsung Galaxy phones may have subscriptions through the Galaxy Store (separate from Google Play). Check Galaxy Store → Menu → My page → Subscriptions.

How to get a refund

Google offers refunds within 48 hours of purchase for most subscriptions:

Go to play.google.com/store/account
Click Order History
Find the charge and click Request a refund

After 48 hours, you'll need to contact the app developer directly. For subscriptions not through Google Play, contact the company or dispute the charge with your bank.

Bottom line

Google Play only shows you part of the picture. Most people have subscriptions across multiple platforms — Google Play, websites, other app stores. Just Cancel finds all of them by scanning your bank statement.
