How to Cancel Adobe

Step by step · checked against the official help page in October 2026

Short answer: Sign in to your Adobe account, choose Manage plan, then Cancel your plan. Annual plans paid monthly can cost a fee after the first 14 days.

Cancel on the website

1. Sign in to your Adobe account (account.adobe.com).
2. Under Plans and payment, select Manage plan for the plan you want to cancel.
3. Select Cancel your plan.
4. Pick a reason and select Continue.
5. Check the details and select Confirm cancellation.

Paying through Apple or Google?

If you bought the plan through Apple, Google or Microsoft, cancel it there instead.

iPhone or iPad (Apple):

1. Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Tap your name at the top, then Subscriptions.
3. Tap the subscription, then Cancel Subscription, and confirm.

Android (Google Play):

1. Open the Google Play Store app.
2. Tap your profile picture, then Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
3. Tap the subscription, then Cancel subscription, and follow the steps.

What happens after you cancel

• If you cancel within 14 days of your first purchase, most plans get a full refund.
• For an annual plan paid monthly, Adobe's terms describe a cancellation fee of 50% of the remaining balance after those 14 days. A month-to-month plan can be cancelled any time without that fee.
• Your Adobe account stays open with the free membership.

Before you cancel: save money

• Have more than one plan? Each one has to be cancelled separately.
• If cancelling doesn't work, a payment may still be processing. Adobe suggests waiting 24 hours and trying again.
• Near the end of your contract year, the remaining balance is small, so the fee is too. Check your renewal date first.
