How to Cancel Apple Music Subscription on iPhone and Android

I like Apple Music. It works perfectly on the iPhone and is so closely linked to the rest of the Apple ecosystem. And its wide availability on Android and Windows means that I have no problem accessing my music, no matter which device I use.

But with Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube Music, I continue to find it harder to keep my Apple Music subscription with each passing day.

If you are on the same boat but have already decided to drop Apple Music, let me show you what you need to do to cancel your subscription.

It should also work if all you’re looking for is avoiding being billed at the end of Apple Music’s generous 3-month trial.

Remember, you can cancel your Apple Music subscription on any device you use it on, be it an iPhone, Android smartphone, Mac, or Windows PC. And since your subscription is linked to your Apple ID, the cancellation will automatically apply to all devices.

Note: Despite the cancellation of your subscription, you can continue to use Apple Music until the end of the current billing period. You can see how much time you have left during the final stages of the cancellation process.
