How to Cancel Apple TV+ (2026 guide)

Cancelling Apple TV+ works differently than most streaming services since it's managed through your Apple ID. This guide covers all the ways to end your subscription.

Quick Overview

Apple TV+ is always billed through your Apple ID, so cancellation happens through Apple's subscription management rather than a separate app. You can cancel from any Apple device or through a web browser.

Cancel Apple TV+ Step by Step

Apple TV+ can be cancelled through any Apple device or web browser. Here's how to do it on iPhone or iPad.

01

Open Settings on your device

On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app. You can also do this on Mac through System Settings or on the web at tv.apple.com.

02

Tap your name at the top

Select your name at the top of Settings to access your Apple ID settings. This is where all your Apple subscriptions are managed.

03

Select Subscriptions

Tap Subscriptions to see all active subscriptions tied to your Apple ID, including Apple TV+, Apple Music, iCloud, and others.

04

Find and tap Apple TV+

Locate Apple TV+ in your subscription list and tap it. You'll see your current plan, price, and renewal date.

05

Tap Cancel Subscription

Select Cancel Subscription or Cancel Free Trial and confirm. You'll keep access until your current billing period ends.

Apple TV+-specific things to know

These details are helpful when cancelling Apple TV+.

Check if it's part of an Apple One

If you have Apple One (bundle with Music, iCloud, etc.), Apple TV+ is included. Cancelling Apple TV+ alone isn't possible — you'd cancel Apple One instead.

Family Sharing affects everyone

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

1. Check for Apple One bundle

If Apple TV+ is part of your Apple One subscription, you'll need to cancel or change Apple One instead of cancelling Apple TV+ separately.

2. Family Sharing implications

Cancelling removes access for everyone in your Family Sharing group who uses your Apple TV+ subscription.

3. Downloaded content stops working

Any Apple TV+ shows or movies downloaded to your devices will become unavailable after your subscription ends.

Alternatives to cancelling your subscription

Share Your Plan

Apple TV+ can be shared with up to 5 family members through Family Sharing at no extra cost. If you're paying alone, consider splitting with family.

Check for Bundles

Apple One bundles Apple TV+ with Apple Music, iCloud+, and other services at a discount compared to subscribing separately.

Apple One bundle options:

• Individual — $19.95/month (TV+, Music, Arcade, iCloud 50GB)
• Family — $25.95/month (adds Family Sharing, iCloud 200GB)
• Premier — $37.95/month (adds News+, Fitness+, iCloud 2TB)
