Frequently asked questions
Cancel Respire: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Respire: your complete guide to ending your subscription in canada
Understanding Respire and why you might want to cancel
Respire is a sleep and breathing app that combines guided sessions, meditation tools, and sleep-improvement features across iOS, Android, and web platforms. The service operates on a subscription model, with both lifetime purchase and monthly recurring options available in Canadian dollars. Whether the app no longer fits your sleep routine, you have found an alternative solution, or your budget has changed, cancelling Respire is a straightforward process once you know where you subscribed.
At Yafee, we guide Canadian consumers through subscription cancellations with precision and clarity. This guide walks you through every cancellation method, your legal rights under Canadian consumer protection law, and the steps required to stop your charges. Yafee exists to make cancellation transparent and friction-free, and Respire is no exception.
Common reasons to cancel Respire
You might cancel because the breathing techniques do not align with your sleep habits, you prefer a competing app, or the subscription cost no longer fits your budget. Other users report that notifications interrupt their sleep, the app interface feels unintuitive, or they want to test whether they can sleep well without paid tools. All of these reasons are valid, and your right to cancel should be respected without barriers or guilt.
Respire pricing in canada
| Plan type | Price (CAD) | Billing cycle | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Respire Plus (lifetime) | Approximately $32.99 | One-time purchase | Extended breathing sessions, advanced techniques, timer control, nature sounds, unlimited access |
| Respire Plus (monthly) | Varies by platform | Monthly recurring | Same features as lifetime, billed monthly |
| Free tier (if available) | $0 | N/A | Basic breathing exercises, limited sessions |
Pricing and plan structure vary depending on whether you subscribed through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or directly on respire.com. Always verify your exact plan type and renewal date on the platform where you signed up before you initiate cancellation.
Your cancellation method depends on where you subscribed
Your cancellation process is determined by the platform that processed your subscription payment.
Cancel Respire if you subscribed via the apple app store
If you signed up for Respire through the Apple App Store on your iPhone or iPad, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system. This is the most common entry point for iOS users in Canada.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Scroll to the top and tap your name and Apple ID profile picture.
- Verify you are signed in with the correct Apple ID account.
- Tap Subscriptions from the menu.
- You will see a list of all active subscriptions linked to your Apple ID.
- If you have multiple subscriptions, scroll down to locate Respire.
- Tap Respire from the list.
- The app's subscription details and renewal date will display.
- Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom of the screen.
- Apple will prompt you to select a cancellation reason (optional but useful for feedback).
- Read the confirmation message about your access ending on the specified date.
- Confirm your cancellation by tapping the final confirmation button.
- You will receive an email confirmation from Apple within minutes.
- Your Respire access continues until the end of your current billing period.
- You will not be charged for the next billing cycle.
Timing matters: Cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date. Apple processes renewals at specific times each day, and cancelling close to the deadline risks an unwanted charge. Check your App Store purchase history or the Settings menu to see your exact renewal date.
Critical warning: Deleting the Respire app from your iPhone does not cancel your subscription. You must complete the steps above in Settings, or you will continue to be charged monthly even if the app is no longer installed.
Cancel Respire if you subscribed via google play store
If you signed up for Respire through Google Play on an Android device, your cancellation must occur within Google Play's subscription management interface.
- On your Android phone or tablet, open the Google Play Store app.
- Ensure you are signed into the Google account used to purchase the subscription.
- Tap the profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions from the menu.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- You will see all active subscriptions on your Google account.
- Find and tap Respire.
- Review your renewal date and subscription details.
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Google will ask you to confirm and may request feedback on your cancellation reason.
- Confirm the cancellation.
- You will receive an email confirmation from Google.
- Your subscription ends at the close of the current billing period.
- No further charges will be applied to your account.
Timing consideration: Like Apple, Google processes subscription renewals at set times. Cancel at least one full day before your renewal date to avoid a charge.
Uninstalling the app does not cancel your subscription. You must follow the steps above within Google Play, or your recurring payment will continue.
Cancel Respire if you subscribed directly via respire.com
If you purchased or subscribed directly through the Respire website using a credit card or PayPal, you must contact Respire's support team or cancel through your account dashboard on respire.com.
- Visit respire.com and log into your account.
- Use the email address and password you provided at signup.
- Navigate to Account Settings or Subscriptions.
- Look for a section labeled "Billing," "My Subscriptions," or "Manage Subscription."
- Locate your active Respire subscription.
- Review your renewal date and plan details.
- Select Cancel Subscription or Manage Subscription.
- Respire may display your cancellation reason options.
- Confirm the cancellation.
- You will receive an email confirmation from Respire at the address linked to your account.
- Your access ends at the conclusion of your current billing period.
- If no self-service option exists, contact Respire support directly.
- Email their support team with your account details and request subscription cancellation.
- Allow 2 to 5 business days for a response and confirmation.
Direct subscriptions require documentation: Keep your email confirmation of cancellation. If Respire fails to stop charging your card after you submit your cancellation request, you will need proof of your cancellation attempt to dispute the charge with your bank or credit card company.
Your legal position under canadian consumer protection law
In Canada, your right to cancel a subscription and receive fair treatment is protected by consumer protection legislation in every province and territory. Understanding your legal position strengthens your ability to cancel without friction and dispute charges if Respire fails to honour your cancellation.
Consumer protection act and your cancellation rights
The federal Consumer Protection Act applies to all Canadian online subscriptions, and most provinces have equivalent consumer protection statutes (such as Ontario's Consumer Protection Act, 2002, and British Columbia's Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act). These laws establish that you have a right to cancel a subscription and that the business must make cancellation at least as easy as signup.
Your legal position: You have the explicit right under Canadian consumer protection law to cancel a subscription at any time, provided the business has given you clear cancellation instructions. The cancellation must take effect within a reasonable timeframe, typically before your next billing cycle. If Respire continues to charge you after you have submitted a cancellation request, you can request a refund through your payment method or escalate to your provincial consumer authority.
Refund entitlements in canada
If you cancel Respire before your renewal date, you have paid for access through the end of that period. You are not entitled to a pro-rata refund for unused days within a billing cycle, unless Respire's terms explicitly offer one.
However, if Respire charges you after you have cancelled, you have a right to dispute that charge. Contact your bank or credit card company to request a reversal, providing proof of your cancellation request (email confirmation, screenshot of Settings, or support correspondence).
If you purchased a lifetime license and later changed your mind within 14 days of purchase, Canadian e-commerce law may entitle you to a refund under your province's distance-sales or cooling-off period regulations. Check your local consumer protection statute or contact your provincial consumer authority to confirm the timeframe in your jurisdiction.
Escalation: if Respire refuses to cancel or continues charging
If Respire fails to stop charging your payment method after you have submitted a cancellation request, follow this escalation path:
- Document your cancellation attempt with screenshots or email confirmation.
- Save the date and time you cancelled.
- Note the billing date and amount of any unwanted charge.
- Contact Respire support in writing and request written confirmation that your cancellation has been processed.
- Use email to create a dated record.
- Contact your bank or credit card company and dispute the charge if the unwanted debit occurs.
- Provide your cancellation documentation to support your dispute.
- The bank will investigate and may reverse the charge within 30 days.
- File a complaint with your provincial consumer protection office if Respire does not respond within 10 business days.
- In Ontario, contact the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services.
- In British Columbia, contact the Office of the Consumer Protection BC.
- In Alberta, contact the Fair Trading Act administrator or Alberta Utilities Commission.
- Each province maintains a consumer complaint portal online.
Yafee emphasises that these escalation steps are rarely needed if you follow the correct cancellation procedure for your platform. However, having a clear legal framework gives you confidence and protection if something goes wrong.
Timeline and what to expect after cancellation
Understanding the sequence of events after you cancel helps you avoid confusion and catch billing errors early.
Immediate steps after you cancel
Once you confirm your cancellation on Apple, Google Play, or respire.com, the following happens immediately:
- Your cancellation is recorded and a confirmation email is sent to you within minutes.
- Your Respire app remains accessible until the end of your current billing period.
- No new charge will appear on your next renewal date.
Your billing period does not reset or shorten when you cancel. You have paid for access through the end of the current cycle, and that access continues unchanged.
Before your next renewal date
In the days leading up to your original renewal date, verify that no charge has been applied to your payment method. Log into your bank account or credit card portal and confirm that Respire is not listed as a pending or completed transaction.
Action required: If a charge appears after your cancellation, contact Respire support immediately with your cancellation confirmation email and request an explanation. If Respire cannot provide a clear reason, dispute the charge with your bank.
After your access ends
Once your subscription period concludes, you will no longer have access to Respire's premium features. The app will either display a message asking you to resubscribe or will revert to free-tier features if available. You can delete the app from your device at any time without affecting your cancellation status.
Common mistakes that delay or complicate cancellation
Cancellation friction is often self-inflicted. Yafee has guided thousands of Canadians through subscription exits, and these mistakes appear consistently.
Deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription
The single most common error is uninstalling the Respire app and assuming the subscription has been cancelled. It has not. App deletion and subscription cancellation are separate actions, and your payment method will continue to be charged every month until you cancel through Settings (Apple), Google Play, or respire.com.
Cancelling too close to your renewal date
If you cancel within hours of your renewal time, your bank may have already processed the charge. Renewal times vary by platform and account. Cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date to guarantee the charge will not go through. If you miss this window, contact your bank to dispute the charge.
Using the wrong account or platform
If you signed up through Apple but try to cancel on Google Play, your cancellation will fail because your subscription is not linked to that platform. Verify exactly where you subscribed by checking your bank or credit card statement for the merchant name (Apple, Google, or Respire directly), then cancel through that platform only.
Ignoring confirmation emails
After you cancel, Apple, Google, and Respire each send a confirmation email. File these emails in a folder or screenshot them. If Respire later claims you never cancelled, this email is your legal proof and will support your dispute with your bank or your complaint to a consumer protection authority.
Respire subscription comparison and exit checklist
Before you cancel, review this summary table to ensure you have selected the right plan and understand your cancellation options.
| Subscription type | Best for | Cancellation difficulty | Refund eligibility |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apple App Store (monthly) | iOS users wanting flexibility | Easy (Settings menu) | No refund for unused days |
| Google Play Store (monthly) | Android users wanting flexibility | Easy (Google Play menu) | No refund for unused days |
| Respire.com (direct) | Users preferring direct billing | Moderate (website or support) | 14-day cooling-off possible |

Exit checklist: confirm these steps before you cancel
- Verify which platform processed your subscription (Apple, Google, Respire).
- Note your renewal date and current billing amount.
- Confirm you are logged into the correct email account.
- Screenshot or note the current subscription status for your records.
- Plan to cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date.
- Expect your app access to continue through the end of your current period.
- Do not delete the app until after your billing period has ended.
- Save your cancellation confirmation email.
- Check your bank statement on your renewal date to confirm no charge has been applied.
- If an unwanted charge appears, have your cancellation confirmation ready to dispute it.
