Pocket Casts Plus-specific things to know

A few things that might affect your Pocket Casts Plus cancellation.

Plus features remain until billing period ends
Your premium features like cloud storage and desktop apps will continue working until your current billing period expires, even after cancelling.
Many users subscribe through app stores
If you downloaded Pocket Casts from the App Store or Google Play and subscribed there, you'll need to cancel through that platform instead.
Desktop app access is tied to subscription
The Windows and Mac desktop apps require an active Plus subscription. These will stop working when your subscription expires.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.

1. Check who's billing you

Look at your recent charges to see if you're billed by Pocket Casts directly, Apple, or Google Play. This determines where you need to cancel.

2. Your podcasts and playlists are saved

Cancelling Plus doesn't delete your podcast subscriptions, playlists, or listening history. These remain in the free version of the app.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel

Removing the Pocket Casts app from your phone doesn't cancel your Plus subscription. You'll continue being charged until you properly cancel.

Alternatives to cancelling your subscription

If you're mainly concerned about cost, you might be able to adjust your plan instead of cancelling completely.

Switch Your Billing Cycle

Switch to annual billing

Annual subscriptions cost less per month than monthly billing and reduce the frequency of charges.

Alternative ways to cancel Pocket Casts Plus

Don't see a cancel option? Your subscription might be billed through one of these providers instead.
