If you’re thinking of parting ways with your Netflix subscription, the process is actually quite simple. Whether you’re using an Apple or Android device, you have the option to cancel your membership directly through the Netflix app. Below, I’ll guide you through the steps on how to cancel your Netflix subscription in just a few easy taps.
Cancelling on an Apple Device
If you’re an Apple user, start by opening the Netflix app on your device. Once you’re logged into your profile, look for your profile icon in the upper-right corner of the app. Tap on it to access your account settings.
After tapping on your profile icon, select the “Account” option from the menu that appears. Scroll down to find the “Cancel Membership” option and tap on it to initiate the cancellation process.
Cancelling on an Android Device
For Android users, the steps are quite similar. Launch the Netflix app on your Android device and log in to your profile. Look for your profile icon located in the upper-right corner of the app and tap on it to reveal a list of options.
From the menu that pops up, select the “Account” option. Scroll down until you find the “Cancel Membership” option and tap on it to proceed with cancelling your Netflix subscription.
Confirming Your Cancellation
After tapping on the “Cancel Membership” option, Netflix will guide you through a few confirmation steps to complete the cancellation process. Follow the prompts on the screen to verify that you indeed want to cancel your subscription.
Once you confirm your decision to cancel, Netflix will stop billing you for the next billing cycle. You’ll still be able to access your account and stream content until the current billing period ends.
Reactivating Your Subscription
If you change your mind and decide to reactivate your Netflix subscription at a later date, you can do so easily by simply signing back into your account. Netflix holds your viewing history for 10 months, so you can pick up right where you left off.
Keep in mind that reactivating your account will resume your billing cycle based on the date you reactivate, so you won’t lose any days that were previously paid for.
Exploring Other Options
If you’re considering cancelling your Netflix subscription due to financial reasons, you can explore other options like changing your plan or pausing your subscription temporarily. Netflix offers flexibility to accommodate your needs.
Before making the decision to cancel, it’s worth checking if there are any ongoing promotions or discounts that you can take advantage of to continue enjoying Netflix’s vast library of content at a more affordable rate.
