Most Calm users can cancel directly through their account or the mobile app. If you subscribed through an app store or during a promotional offer, you'll need to cancel through the original provider instead.

Cancel Your Calm Subscription

Follow these steps to cancel your Calm subscription directly. The process may vary slightly depending on your plan or how you signed up.

02

Navigate to account settings

Click on your profile picture in the top right corner, then select Account Settings from the dropdown menu.

03

Find subscription management

Calm-specific things to know

Calm subscriptions can work differently depending on your plan or how you signed up. These tips cover common edge cases.

Your content stays downloaded until renewal
Any meditations or sleep stories you've downloaded will remain accessible offline until your subscription period ends.
Free trial cancellations work the same way
If you're still in your free trial period, follow the same cancellation steps to avoid being charged when the trial expires.
Lifetime subscriptions can't be cancelled
If you purchased a lifetime membership during a promotion, there's no recurring billing to cancel - you have permanent access.

Before cancelling Calm

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

1. Check who's actually billing you

Look at your credit card or bank statement to see if you're being charged by Calm directly, Apple, Google, or another provider. This determines where you need to cancel.

2. Your access continues until the billing period ends

After cancelling, you'll still have full access to Calm Premium features until your current subscription period expires. There's no immediate loss of service.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel your subscription

Removing the Calm app from your phone won't stop billing. You must cancel through your account settings or the app store where you subscribed.

Consider these alternatives

If you're cancelling because of cost or infrequent use, you might be able to pause or downgrade instead of cancelling completely.

Switch Your Billing Cycle

Switch from monthly to annual billing

Annual plans typically cost about 40% less than paying monthly, which might make the subscription more affordable if you plan to keep using it.

Alternative ways to cancel Calm

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

Apple App Store

iPhone and iPad users who subscribed through the App Store must cancel through their Apple ID subscription settings, not through Calm directly.
