How to Cancel Skillshare UK: Website Membership and App-Store Billing
Quick answer: To cancel a Skillshare subscription, use the place where you purchased it. Website members can cancel through Membership & Payments in account settings; subscribers billed by Apple’s App Store or Google Play need to manage the subscription with the relevant store. Removing the Skillshare app from your phone does not stop recurring billing.
For a membership purchased on skillshare.com
Open Skillshare’s website in a browser and sign into the account that holds the membership. Go to Account settings, select Membership & Payments, choose Cancel membership and complete the on-screen prompts. These are the steps on Skillshare’s official cancellation page. Check your membership status after completing the prompts rather than assuming that opening the cancellation screen was the final action.
On a mobile browser, the same help page describes opening your profile and navigating through Account settings. If the account does not show a cancellation button, check the original subscription receipt before assuming the feature is missing: you might have paid through an app store, or you may be signed into a different Skillshare account.
App-store purchases are a separate route
If Apple took the payment, use the subscription management area of your Apple account. For Google Play billing, open Play’s subscriptions section using the Google account connected to the purchase. Skillshare cannot cancel those third-party subscriptions from its own website. After cancelling, check the renewal information shown by the store and retain the confirmation.
Example: You signed up on an iPad and later started watching classes on a laptop. The device you use to view lessons does not determine who bills you. The purchase channel shown in your original receipt determines where to look for the cancellation controls.
Does cancelling mean receiving a refund?
Not automatically. Skillshare publishes separate refund guidance that varies with subscription type, trial length, timing and the payment platform. A request following a recent free-trial conversion is not identical to asking for an annual renewal to be reversed. Review the terms that applied to your actual purchase, then use Skillshare Support or the app store as appropriate.
Skillshare says cancellation can leave access in place until the end of a paid period. Confirm the date displayed for your account; do not treat continued ability to watch a class as proof that the cancellation failed or future billing is still switched on.
When you cannot find your subscription in Apple or Google Play, check whether you used a different Apple ID or Google account at checkout. Also inspect the Skillshare website account only if the purchase receipt indicates a direct purchase. Repeatedly pressing cancellation controls in an unbilled account will not stop a subscription held elsewhere. Keep the store’s confirmation after you cancel and look for the next-renewal date shown on the subscription record.
