Accidentally Made an In-App Purchase? How to Cancel on your Subscription

OOPS… MADE AN IN-APP PURCHASE?

Or signed yourself up to a subscription?

Easily done! I did it myself.

So I decided it was time to head back to the gym this week, and thought I would download a free “Workout” app. I had a Samsung smartphone before my iPhone, and used a free workout app. The app allowed me to pick parts of the body I wanted to train, and it would provide a series of exercises.
I assumed I could get this same app on my iPhone.

Wrong.

I downloaded 2 apps, and both of them required me to pay to “unlock” these workouts. The third app I downloaded got me past the first screen, and stated a free trial for a week, followed by $13.99 USD a week to subscribe to the app.

I just needed some handy hints on working out! So I kept clicking the prompts, and next minute, I had enabled my Apple ID to billed $13.99 USD a week, after my free trial . On my Samsung phone, I didn’t connect my credit card to my Playstore account, whereas on my Apple iPhone, my App Store account is connected to a credit card,
