With the ongoing evolution of streaming services, Disney+ remains a popular choice for viewers globally. However, with increasing subscription costs and the emergence of new competitors, you might find yourself contemplating a cancellation. Whether it’s budget constraints or simply a desire for a temporary break from content, we have you covered on how to unsubscribe from Disney+.
Disney+ offers subscription plans beginning at £4.99/$7.99 per month for those who don’t mind ads, while an ad-free experience will set you back £7.99/$13.99 each month, with annual options available too. If you are in a long-term subscription, you can still initiate the cancellation process; however, access will continue until your subscription renews, and no refunds will be issued.

Steps to Cancel Your Disney+ Account via Website
For those looking to cancel Disney+, the most straightforward way is via the website, accessible from a PC or mobile browser.
Note: You cannot cancel your subscription through the Disney+ app or on Smart TVs. If your Disney+ subscription is billed through a third-party service like Apple, check the end of this article for guidance.
If you subscribed directly through Disney+, follow these steps:
- Log into the homepage and click on your profile icon located in the top right corner. Select ‘Account’ from the dropdown options.
- Under the ‘Subscription’ section, navigate to your active subscription, clicking on the arrow next to it (e.g., ‘Disney+ monthly’).
- On the subscription details page, click on ‘Cancel subscription’ and confirm your cancellation.
After canceling your Disney+ subscription, your account will stay active until you choose to delete it. This means you can return to Disney+ at any time without the need to create a new account.
How to Cancel Disney+ on Mobile Devices or TV
If you initially signed up for Disney+ via your iPhone, Android device, or through set-top boxes like Roku or Amazon Fire, you’ll need to cancel through the respective platform, as your payment details will be linked to them. Cancelling through the website isn’t an option in these scenarios.
Typically, you can cancel your subscription by signing into your account on your mobile device or TV, locating ‘manage subscriptions’ and selecting the option to cancel Disney+ from that menu.
