How to Cancel Netflix on iPhone (iOS)
Most people actually pay Netflix directly, but if you are one of the legacy users paying through iTunes, here is how to cut the cord.
1 Open Settings
Grab your iPhone and tap the Settings app (the gear icon). If you pay through Apple, this is the only way to stop the bleeding.
2 Tap Your Name
Click on your Apple ID name at the very top of the screen. It usually has your picture next to it.
3 Select Subscriptions
Tap Subscriptions. If you don't see Netflix listed here, you likely signed up directly through their website, so skip to the Desktop section.
4 Cancel Subscription
Find Netflix in the list, tap it, and hit Cancel Subscription. Confirm your choice to finish.
How to Cancel Netflix on Android
If you subscribed via the Google Play Store, you have to cancel through Google. The Netflix app often hides the button to keep you subscribed.
1 Open Google Play Store
Launch the Google Play Store app on your phone. Do not try to do this through the Netflix app itself; it usually just redirects you anyway.
2 Tap Profile Icon
Tap your profile picture in the top right corner to open the menu.
3 Payments and Subscriptions
Select Payments & subscriptions, then tap on Subscriptions to see the list of apps taking your money.
4 Cancel Netflix
Tap Netflix. Look for the Cancel subscription button at the bottom. Follow the prompts and give a reason if they ask.
How to Cancel Netflix on Desktop or Laptop

2 Go to Account
Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select Account from the dropdown menu.
3 Cancel Membership
Look for the Cancel Membership button under the 'Membership & Billing' section. It is usually a grey button on the left side.
4 Confirm Cancellation
They will try to convince you to stay or downgrade. Ignore it. Click Finish Cancellation to make it official.
What is Netflix Cancellation Policy
Netflix allows you to cancel at any time, but here is the catch: there are absolutely no refunds for partial months. If you cancel the day after your billing cycle hits, you just paid for another 30 days of access you might not want. You keep access until the billing period ends. They also hold onto your viewing history for 10 months, just in case you crawl back. Trustpilot reviews are full of people complaining about this strict "no refund" stance.
Before You Cancel Netflix: What You Should Know
No Cancellation Fees
Luckily, Netflix does not charge a fee to leave. You just stop paying.
Data Retention
Your "My List" and viewing history stick around for 10 months. If you rejoin within that window, your algorithm is still intact.
No Pausing
Unlike some services, you cannot really "pause" a subscription. You either cancel it or you pay for it. Downgrading to the ad-supported tier is their version of a pause.
Having Trouble Cancelling Your Netflix Subscription?
Still seeing charges? It happens more than you think.
- Check Third-Party Billing: You might be paying through T-Mobile, Comcast, or Amazon. Check your mobile or cable bill.
- Clear Cache: Sometimes the "Cancel" button literally disappears due to browser glitches. Try Incognito mode.
- Wrong Email: Ensure you are cancelling the right account. Some households accidentally have two active subscriptions.
- Change Password: If you suspect someone else reactivated it, cancel and then immediately change your password.
