How to cancel Apple Arcade

On iPhone/iPad: Settings → tap your name → Subscriptions → Apple Arcade → Cancel Subscription.

On Mac: App Store app → click your profile (bottom left) → Account Settings → scroll to Subscriptions → Manage → find Apple Arcade → Edit → Cancel Subscription.

On any browser: subscriptions.apple.com → sign in → find Apple Arcade → Cancel Subscription.

Apple One bundle: Apple Arcade is included in all Apple One tiers (Individual, Family, Premier). If you have Apple One, you can't cancel Arcade alone — you'd cancel or downgrade Apple One. If you only used Apple One for Arcade, the standalone Arcade subscription ($6.99) is cheaper than even Individual Apple One ($19.95).

Family sharing: Apple Arcade is automatically shared with everyone in your Family Sharing group. Cancelling cancels for everyone — notify the family if relevant.

Refund eligibility: Apple sometimes refunds Arcade subscriptions if cancelled within a few days of payment. Use reportaproblem.apple.com → find the charge → request a refund with reason "I didn't intend to subscribe" or "I cancelled and don't intend to use it." Approval rate is ~30-50%.

Game progress: Your save data stays in iCloud after cancellation. If you resubscribe later, you pick up where you left off in every game. Cancellation doesn't delete progress.

Trial gotcha: Many Apple devices come with 1-3 months of free Arcade. Set a calendar reminder for day -2 of the trial end to cancel before it auto-converts to paid. You keep Arcade access through the end of the trial after cancellation.
