Cancellation Steps
Open YouTube TV in a browser
Go to tv.youtube.com in a web browser (on iPhone or iPad you must use a browser, not the app) and click (or tap) your profile photo.
Go to your Membership settings
Select Settings, then open the Membership tab.
Manage your membership
Next to your YouTube TV base plan, click (or tap) Manage.
Cancel the membership
Click (or tap) Cancel membership, then Cancel to confirm. You keep access until the end of your payment period.
Billed through Apple or Roku?
If you signed up through Apple (iTunes) or Roku, cancel in that provider's subscription settings instead.
Refund policy
YouTube TV does not issue prorated refunds; after you cancel, your membership stays active and you keep watching until the end of the current paid period.
- Cancelling stops the next charge but does not refund the current month.
- You can also Pause the membership for up to a set number of weeks instead of cancelling.
- If billed through Apple, refunds must be requested from Apple, not Google.
Common issues
Cancel option is missing
If you only see store-managed options, you signed up through Apple—cancel in your iPhone's Subscriptions settings instead.
Add-on networks still active
Cancelling the base plan ends add-ons too, but if you only want to drop an add-on, use its individual Manage option instead of cancelling the whole membership.
