Apple Music is one of the most popular music streaming services out there right now and, with over 70 million songs available ad-free and access to exclusive playlists and live radio stations, it isn’t hard to see why.
That said, Apple Music isn’t for everyone. Maybe you’ve bought a smart speaker that doesn’t support the service, or you’re tempted to save with Spotify’s new Duo account. There’s also plenty of exclusive content to be found on other apps from podcasts on Spotify to entire albums on Tidal.
Whether you’re a long time Apple Music listener looking to jump ship or are finished with your free trial, here’s how to cancel your Apple Music subscription.

It’s important to note that if you don’t cancel your Apple Music subscription it will automatically renew, so you’ll want to follow these instructions before your free trial ends to avoid being charged.
If you pay for your subscription, you’ll be able to continue to listen on your account until the next billing date. If you cancel during the trial, you run the risk of losing access to content immediately. For this reason, you may want to set a reminder to cancel closer to the date if you want to make the most of what the trial has to offer.
Apple recommends you cancel your trial at least 24 hours before it is due to end to avoid being charged.
