# 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

| Cancel Online                       | Yes             |
|-------------------------------------|-----------------|
| Main Cancel methods                 | iPhone/iPad, Mac, Apple TV, Web Browser |
| Time to Cancel                      | 1-2 mins        |
| Through Apple Settings               | Where to Cancel | Apple ID Subscriptions or settings app or tv.apple.com |

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)
