To cancel a subscription on a Samsung phone, use the store or billing channel where you bought it: cancel Google Play subscriptions in Google Play, and Galaxy Store subscriptions in Galaxy Store. The app’s location on your phone does not determine who bills you. Uninstalling an app does not cancel its subscription.
First, identify where the subscription was purchased
Check the receipt or the merchant name on your payment statement if you are unsure. A subscription bought through Google Play is managed by the Google account used for that purchase. A Galaxy Store subscription is managed through Galaxy Store after signing in. If neither store lists it, the subscription may be billed directly by the app publisher, a carrier, or another provider; these instructions do not cover those providers’ cancellation steps.
| Purchase channel | Where to cancel | Account required | Access after cancellation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Play | Google Play > Subscriptions | The Google account used to purchase | Ordinarily, through the time already paid. Remaining payment-plan installments may still be due. |
| Galaxy Store | Galaxy Store > Menu > Subscriptions | Sign in to Galaxy Store | Samsung says access may continue until the service period ends. |
Cancel a Google Play subscription
- Open Google Play on your Samsung phone. Check that the selected Google account is the one used to subscribe; switch accounts if needed.

What cancellation does—and what it does not do
For an ordinary recurring subscription, canceling stops the next renewal; it generally does not end access immediately or refund the time already paid. Google Play subscriptions renew at the start of a billing cycle unless canceled. Google Play cancellation guidance and Google Play subscription billing guidance explain the applicable terms.
Payment plans are different: Google says you may stop a plan from auto-renewing but remain responsible for payments still due under the current plan. Canceling renewal does not necessarily erase an installment commitment.
