How to cancel Spotify subscription from app

Do you want to cancel your Spotify subscription from a smartphone or tablet? Then you must know that you can easily succeed in this intent, but that you cannot proceed directly from the Spotify app for Android (even on alternative stores for all those devices that do not use Google services) or iPhone / iPad: you must act as a browser. Find everything explained below.

How to cancel Spotify subscription: Android

If you are using an Android device, you can cancel your Spotify subscription using the browser you normally use to browse online (e.g. Google Chrome ). Then start the latter, go to the Spotify login page and log in to your account.

This operation can be completed by pressing the Login button and then using the Continue with Facebook buttons if you are logged in using this social network, Continue with Apple if you used your Apple ID, Continue with Google if you used your Google account or by simply entering the email/username and password that you set only for Spotify and then pressing the Login button. If you don’t remember the password, I suggest you consult my guide dedicated to how to see the Spotify password and how to recover it.

Once in your profile, tap on the icon of the three horizontal lines and, in the new screen opened, select the Account item. You will see a new page open in which there is a summary of your account: scroll down to the item Your plan, and tap the Change plan button.

Also scroll through the new screen opened, until you find the Cancel the Premium subscription button in the box dedicated to Spotify Free and press it, then to confirm the operation, also tap the Continue buttons to cancel and Yes, cancel.

After performing all these steps, the page referring to your subscription will indicate the date from which you will return to the free service based on advertising. In a nutshell, despite having canceled the subscription, the Premium version service will continue to be active and usable until the expiry date set for it.

If in the future you decide to activate Spotify Premium again, you can therefore avoid any unwanted charges for the renewal by deactivating the renewal in advance and continuing to use the Premium service until the expiry date.

Having said that, choose whether to fill out the questionnaire relating to the reasons that prompted you to cancel your subscription, placing a check mark next to the most appropriate motivation among those proposed, inserting a comment and indicating (always putting a check mark) how many chances are you will be able to go back to using your Premium membership. Once this is done, send your answers by pressing the Send button. Alternatively, tap the Skip button to not complete the questionnaire.

Now you have found out how to cancel Spotify Premium subscription, pretty simple right? If, on the other hand, you do not see what is described and the summary page of the Spotify account does not contain the Change plan button, it means that the subscription has been signed with a partner company, such as a telephone operator.

To deal with the problem and cancel your subscription, all you have to do is look for the Payment item and under it you will find the contact links to start the procedure through that company.

How to cancel Spotify subscription: iPhone

There are two different procedures to cancel Spotify subscription via iPhone and iPad. The main one is the same as described in the previous chapter. All you have to do, therefore, is to open the browser you normally use to browse online from your device (eg Safari ), access your Spotify account through the login page of the service and press the gear icon (in top right).

At this point, tap on the View account item, scroll down the new page that has opened and press the Change plan button. You will be redirected to a new page and by scrolling down also you will be able to reach the Cancel Premium subscription button that you will have to press to start the procedure.

The second, on the other hand, consists in going to act using the settings of your device, in case you were a long-time Spotify Premium user and had subscribed through iTunes (option no longer available).

In this case, access the iOS Settings (the gear icon located on the Home Screen), tap your name, select the Subscriptions item and, in the new screen opened, select the item relating to Spotify. At this point, tap on Cancel subscription and confirm.

How to cancel Spotify subscription: PC

Don’t want to use your smartphone and want to know how to cancel Spotify subscription via PC? Then the first thing you need to do is to connect to the official Spotify website. Then, press the Login item located at the top right, fill in the Username and Password fields and then click on the green Login button.

If you have registered for the service through Facebook, you can also access Spotify by pressing the Continue with Facebook button and then typing the access data relating to your account on the social network, the same applies even if you are registered with your Google Account. or your Apple ID (there are special buttons to log in)

Once logged into your account, in order to cancel the subscription, presses on your name located on the right side of the page, then locate the Account item, press on it and, in the new page opened, scroll down and press the Change plan button.

In the new page that will be shown to you at this point, scroll through all the subscription plans available up to the last one which consists of Spotify Free and click on the Cancel Premium subscription button. Then press the Continue buttons to cancel and Yes, cancel to confirm your operation.

If you have subscribed through iTunes (this option is no longer available) and you have a Windows PC, open iTunes, go to the Account menu > View my account (above), log in to your Apple ID, then go to View account, scroll up to the Settings section, click on the Manage button for the Subscriptions, click on the Edit button for Spotify and click on the option to cancel the subscription.

If you have a Mac, on the other hand, open the App Store, click on your name located at the bottom left of the window and select the item View Information. Now log in with your Apple ID by entering the email and pressing the Login button, then perform the same action with the password and in the new window opened look for the item Subscriptions and click on the word Manage. Now, from the list of subscriptions on the new screen, locate Spotify, press the Edit item and then the Cancel subscription button. Easy, right?
