Watch Out

The cancellation method depends entirely on where you purchased — App Store, Google Play, or the Day One website (Stripe). Using the wrong method won't show your subscription.

The 1-month free trial auto-converts to a paid annual subscription at $49.99/year. Cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.

Day One only offers an annual plan ($49.99/year) — there's no monthly option, so you're locked in for a year once charged.

Refunds for App Store purchases must go through Apple (reportaproblem.apple.com), and Google Play refunds through Google — Day One can't process them.

If you signed up through the website via Stripe, contact Day One support directly for refund requests.

What Happens After You Cancel

Access

Premium features remain active until the end of your billing cycle. After that, you lose unlimited photos/videos, audio recording, and advanced features — but all existing journal entries remain accessible.

Your data

All journal entries, photos, and media remain on your device and in your account after cancellation.
