Apple TV+ uses the same subscription management as all Apple services. Cancel it through your Apple ID settings — it takes about 60 seconds regardless of which device you use.

Official account or cancellation path Apple TV+

Open Apple subscription settings

On iPhone: Settings → your name → Subscriptions. On Mac: App Store → Account → Subscriptions. On web: appleid.apple.com → Subscriptions.

Select Apple TV+

Find Apple TV+ in your active subscriptions list and tap on it. You'll see your plan details and next renewal date.

If you don't see Apple TV+ listed, you may have it through Apple One bundle or a free trial from a device purchase.

Tap "Cancel Subscription"

Tap "Cancel Subscription" at the bottom. If you're on a free trial (included with device purchases), tap "Cancel Free Trial".

Apple gives up to 3 months free TV+ with new device purchases. Set a reminder before it auto-renews at $9.99/mo.

Already charged? Keep the receipt and the cancellation confirmation. They are the useful part of a refund request.

⚠️ Watch out

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I get Apple TV+ free with my new iPhone?
Apple offers 3 months free Apple TV+ with the purchase of a new Apple device. After the trial, it auto-renews at $9.99/mo unless you cancel before the trial ends.
Can I get a refund for Apple TV+?
Yes. Visit reportaproblem.apple.com and request a refund for recent charges. Apple is generally accommodating for accidental renewals.
What happens to movies I purchased on Apple TV?
Movies and shows you purchased (bought, not through the subscription) remain yours permanently. Only Apple TV+ Originals require an active subscription to watch.
Is there a cheaper Apple TV+ plan?
No. Apple TV+ only has one tier at $9.99/mo. However, Apple One ($19.95/mo) bundles TV+ with Music, iCloud+, and Arcade, which may be cheaper than subscribing separately.
