You can cancel a subscription from Apple or a subscription that you purchased via a third-party app in macOS. However, the process on the Mac differs from the method on iOS and iPadOS. Instead of managing subscriptions via iCloud Settings, macOS handles them in the Mac App Store app. Here’s how it works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0 Open the Mac App Store app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0 Click your name. If you can’t find your name, click Sign In.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0 Click Account Settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0\u00a0Scroll to the Manage section<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0\u00a0 Under Manage, you’ll see a Subscriptions subheading. To the right of it, click Manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0\u00a0In the list of subscriptions, find the subscription you’d like to cancel and click Edit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0\u00a0Click Cancel Subscription.\u00a0If there\u2019s no Cancel or Cancel Subscription button, the subscription has already been canceled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
