How to cancel Apple Music

Cancel on the Apple Music website

You can reach the plan at music.apple.com.

1. 01Go to music.apple.com.
2. 02Choose Sign In at the top if you see it.
3. 03Tap or click the My Account icon, then choose Settings.
4. 04Scroll to Subscriptions, choose Manage, then choose Cancel Subscription.

If that page will not cancel it, Apple says to cancel in Settings instead.

Cancel in Apple settings

Apple bills the subscription.

1. 01On iPhone, iPad, or Apple Vision Pro, open Settings, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, tap the subscription, and tap Cancel Subscription. You may need to scroll.
2. 02On a Mac, open the App Store, click your name at the bottom of the sidebar, click your name, click Subscriptions, click the subscription, and click Cancel Subscription.
3. 03On Windows, open the Apple Music app or the Apple TV app, click your name, then View My Account. Next to Subscriptions, click Manage, then Edit, then Cancel Subscription. An older iTunes for Windows uses Account, then View My Account, then the same subscription steps.
4. 04On Android, if Apple bills the plan rather than Google Play, go to account.apple.com and follow the instructions.

If there is no Cancel button, or you see an expiration message in red, Apple says it is already cancelled. You cannot cancel a plan on a family member's Apple Account. That person has to cancel it.

Cancel a Google Play plan

Google Play bills Apple Music.

1. 01Cancel only in the Apple Music app on your Android device, or at play.google.com.

Apple's Music cancel page does not print the taps inside the Android app.

Cancel a carrier or reseller plan

A wireless carrier or other reseller bills Apple Music.

1. 01Contact that carrier or provider and cancel with them.

Apple says the reseller is the merchant of record. Billing disputes go to the reseller, not to Apple. The service is still licensed by Apple.

How to know it worked

• —After Apple Music expires, you cannot play songs from the Apple Music catalog. Playlists added from the catalog, or made from it, are no longer available.
• —If you use Sync Library, it turns off when the subscription expires. Music and playlists that were on the device before you subscribed stay.
• —When the membership ends, Apple says you also lose access to iCloud Music Library, including songs uploaded to Apple's iCloud Music Library servers.
• —A missing Cancel button, or a red expiration message, means Apple already shows the subscription as cancelled.

Watch out for

• —The plan renews until you cancel it in Manage Subscriptions. Apple charges no more than 24 hours before the next period starts.
• —Cancel a free trial at least 24 hours before it ends, or Apple starts charging. If you cancel a free trial of an Apple subscription before it ends, you cannot turn that trial back on.
• —A free trial of Apple Music is not paused if you also subscribe to a bundle such as Apple One. The trial can run out while you have the bundle, and Apple does not have to restore it.
• —If Apple raises the price, it notifies you, and your consent is required where the terms say so.
• —A receipt from another Apple Account, or no Apple receipt at all, means a different account or a different company bills the plan.
• —Cancelling is different in Israel, South Africa, and Türkiye. This page is the US path.

Apple Music refunds

• —Apple says all transactions are final.
• —If a technical problem prevents or unreasonably delays delivery, Apple's remedy is a replacement or a refund of the price paid, as Apple decides.
• —For a subscription that commits you to a set number of billing periods, a refund covers only access you already paid for but have not received. No refund is due for future periods that have not been charged.
• —Apple may refuse a refund if it finds fraud, abuse, or other manipulative behavior.
• —A carrier or reseller plan is billed by that company. Take a billing dispute to them.
