About Grammarly Subscriptions

Grammarly Premium adds advanced writing suggestions, tone detection, and plagiarism checks. Cancelling downgrades you to Grammarly Free — the extension and basic features remain. This guide covers these ways to cancel: Web Browser, iPhone / iPad.

Before You Cancel Grammarly

Before cancelling, check a few things: which platform you subscribed on (App Store, Google Play, or the website directly), since you must cancel in the same place you signed up. If you subscribed on the website, cancelling through your iPhone Settings won't work — and vice versa.

Also note your next billing date. Grammarly doesn't delete your account when you cancel — you keep access until the period ends. Check the refund and fee details above before you cancel: some plans, especially annual contracts, charge an early-termination fee, and most services do not refund unused days.

Can I Resubscribe After Cancelling?

Usually yes — log back in and choose a new plan. How long Grammarly keeps your data after cancellation depends on its own policy, so check its help pages if you plan to come back.

What If I Can't Find the Cancel Button?

Some services intentionally bury the cancel option. Follow the exact steps above — if you still can't find it, check that you're logged into the correct account (some people have multiple accounts). You can also contact Grammarly support by chat or email and ask them to cancel; keep the confirmation message until the next billing date has passed.
