Some apps and services offer subscription-based access to their content. Unlike single item purchases (such as for game currency like gems and coins), subscriptions will automatically renew until you choose to end them.
Subscriptions that renew automatically include:
- Apple Music subscriptions
- Apple News, newspaper, and magazine subscriptions
- In-app subscriptions for content or services (HBO NOW, Spotify, Netflix, Pandora, Hulu, etc.)
If you're not currently logged in with the same Apple ID that you use with the subscription that you want to manage, if you're using a different device, or if you don't see your subscription, follow the directions below.
Canceling subscriptions is slightly different in Israel, South Africa, and Turkey. Learn about special circumstances for these countries and regions.

If you still can't view your subscriptions
- If you receive an email about a subscription or Apple Music charge and you're not sure if it’s real, check to make sure that it's a legitimate email from Apple.
- See when subscriptions were billed to you and at what price by checking your purchase history.
- You might have been signed in with a different Apple ID when you originally subscribed. Sign in with that Apple ID and check to see if your subscriptions are billed to that account. If you have two-factor authentication turned on, you might be prompted to enter a verification code. If you can't remember the password to that Apple ID, we can help.
- A Family Sharing organizer can’t manage subscriptions for other family members. Family members' subscriptions can only be managed from their account. Use that family member’s device with their Apple ID logged in to view their subscriptions. You can also use Ask to Buy or Restrictions on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch; Mac or PC; or Apple TV.
- iCloud storage is another type of recurring charge you might see on your account. You can view and change your iCloud storage plan on an Apple device.
- You might have subscribed directly with the provider and not through Apple. Learn how to get help with subscriptions not billed through Apple.
- If you had a problem with an in-app subscription but don't want to cancel, you can report a problem with the charge online. Log in to reportaproblem.apple.com, then click Subscriptions near the top of the page. You can report a problem on recent third-party subscriptions.
- If you still can't view your subscription and you signed up inside an app or iTunes (and not through a third-party provider), contact Apple Support.
