Cancelling RescueTime is straightforward if you're billed directly, but the process varies if you signed up through an app store or third-party provider. This guide covers all cancellation methods to help you end your subscription properly.
Most RescueTime users are billed directly through the website and can cancel from their account settings. If you subscribed through an app store, you'll need to cancel through that platform instead of your RescueTime account.
Follow these steps to cancel your RescueTime subscription directly. If you're billed through an app store, see the alternative methods section below.
Go to rescuetime.com and click Log In in the top right corner. Enter your email and password to access your account dashboard.
Click on your profile icon or username in the top right, then select Account Settings from the dropdown menu.
In the account settings page, look for the Billing or Subscription tab on the left sidebar and click it to view your payment details.
Find the Cancel Subscription button in the billing section. Click it and confirm your cancellation when prompted. You may be asked to provide feedback about why you're leaving.
You should see an on-screen confirmation that your RescueTime subscription has been cancelled. Check your email for a cancellation confirmation message with details about when your access ends.
A few things that might affect your RescueTime cancellation or timing.
These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.
If you signed up through the Apple App Store or Google Play, your subscription is managed by them, not RescueTime. Cancel through the app store instead.
Cancelling stops future charges but doesn't end your current subscription period. You'll have Premium features until your next billing date.
Removing the RescueTime app from your devices won't stop subscription charges. You need to cancel through your account or the app store that's billing you.
If you're cancelling because of cost or usage patterns, these options might work better than cancelling completely.
If you can't cancel through your RescueTime account, you may need to go through app stores. The right option depends on how you're being billed.
iPhone and iPad users who subscribed through the app need to cancel RescueTime in their Apple ID subscription settings.
