Quick Facts
Watch Out
The 'Pause' option is easily mistaken for cancellation — make sure you fully cancel, not just pause.
If you subscribed via Apple or Google, you must cancel through that store — the website won't show the option.
Multiple accounts: you might be logged into a free account while your paid subscription is under a different email.
The 'End Subscription' button can be hidden by ad blockers — try incognito mode if you can't find it.
'Unlimited' reading has soft throttling — popular titles get restricted if you read too many too fast.
What Happens After You Cancel
