How to Cancel Snapchat Plus (and the Free Trial) on iPhone, Android and Web

By SnapPlus.icu editorial team Updated

You can't cancel Snapchat+ from inside Snapchat itself. The subscription belongs to whoever billed you: Apple, Google or Snapchat's website. Find out which one it is, and cancelling takes less than a minute.

Not sure where you subscribed?

Open your profile in Snapchat, tap the Snapchat+ card, then Manage. Snapchat will send you to the right place: the App Store, Google Play or your web subscription page.

How to cancel Snapchat+ on iPhone

  1. Open the Settings app (the grey gear, not Snapchat).
  2. Tap your name at the top.
  3. Tap Subscriptions.
  4. Choose Snapchat.
  5. Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm.

You can get to the same screen from the App Store: tap your profile picture in the top-right, then Subscriptions.

The iPhone trial deadline

Snapchat's help center is clear: iOS users must cancel at least 24 hours before a free trial ends. If you cancel on the last day, Apple renews the subscription and charges you. Apple may also end trial access as soon as you cancel, so aim for a day or two before the deadline, not the first day.

How to cancel Snapchat+ on Android

  1. Open the Google Play Store.
  2. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
  3. Tap Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
  4. Select Snapchat.
  5. Tap Cancel subscription and follow the prompts.

Make sure you're signed into the same Google account you used to subscribe. If you have more than one, switch accounts from the profile menu.

How to cancel a web or promo-code subscription

  1. Go to snapchat.com in a browser and sign in.
  2. Click Accounts, then My Subscription.
  3. Choose to cancel and confirm.

Subscriptions started with a partner promo code are managed here too. In the US, Snapchat says you can cancel straight after redeeming and still keep the promotional period. In the EU and UK, cancelling in the first 14 days ends access immediately.

What happens after you cancel

  • Paid plans: you keep Snapchat+ until the end of the period you've paid for, then it switches off.
  • Your account is untouched. Friends, chats, streaks and Memories all stay. Only the Snapchat+ extras disappear.
  • Memories over 5 GB aren't deleted, but from January 2027 older ones may be archived unless you have a storage plan. Download anything important first.
  • Family Plan owners: cancelling removes Snapchat+ from the two friends you added as well. Give them a heads-up.

Can you get a refund?

Refunds go through whoever took your money, not Snapchat Support:

What about gifts and Family Plan spots?

There's nothing to cancel. A Snapchat+ gift is a one-off purchase that simply ends, and a Family Plan spot is controlled by the person who pays. That's part of why they're the most relaxed ways to get Snapchat+ for free.

Cancelled, but still want Snapchat+?

A gift or a friend's Family Plan needs no card and never renews.

FAQ

Cancellation FAQ

Does deleting Snapchat cancel Snapchat Plus?

No. Deleting the app, or even your account, doesn't stop the subscription. You have to cancel it in the App Store, Google Play or your Snapchat web account.

Can I get a refund for Snapchat Plus?

Refunds are handled by whoever billed you. Apple and Google handle their own refund requests. For web subscriptions, the US doesn't refund unused time, while the EU and UK give a pro-rated refund if you cancel within 14 days of being charged.

When should I cancel the Snapchat+ free trial?

At least 24 hours before it ends. On iPhone, cancelling on the last day doesn't stop the renewal. A reminder on day 5 of a 7-day trial is a safe choice.
