Tidal-specific things to know

A few things that might affect your Tidal cancellation or billing.

Free trial converts automatically
If you're on a free trial, cancel before it ends to avoid being charged for the first month of your subscription.
Downloaded music stays for 30 days
Offline downloads remain accessible for about 30 days after cancellation, but you can't download new music once cancelled.
Student plans require verification
If you have a student discount, cancellation works the same way, but you'll lose access to the discounted pricing if you resubscribe later.

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

If you don't see a cancel option in your Tidal account, you're likely being billed through an app store or carrier. Check your payment method to determine the right cancellation method.

2. Access continues until billing period ends

You'll keep your Tidal access until your current billing period expires, even after cancelling. There's no need to wait until the last minute to cancel.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel

Removing the Tidal app from your phone doesn't cancel your subscription. You'll continue to be charged until you properly cancel through your account or billing provider.

Other options to consider

If cost is the main issue, you might be able to downgrade your plan instead of cancelling completely.

Downgrade your Tidal plan

Tidal offers different tiers at lower prices if you don't need the highest audio quality or all the premium features.

  • Tidal Free (ad-supported)

  • Tidal HiFi (standard quality)

  • Tidal HiFi Plus (highest quality)

Switch Your Billing Cycle

Tidal offers both monthly and annual billing options, with annual plans providing a discount.

Annual plans typically save you about 2 months compared to monthly billing

Share Your Plan

Tidal offers family plans that can be more cost-effective if multiple people in your household want access to the service.

Alternative ways to cancel Tidal

If you can't cancel through your Tidal account, you may need to go through app stores or your mobile carrier. The right option depends on how you're being billed.

Apple App Store

iPhone and iPad users who subscribed through the App Store need to cancel through their Apple ID subscription settings.
