Frequently asked questions
Cancel Insta360: The Right Way
How to cancel Insta360 in malaysia and avoid hidden charges
What is Insta360 and why users cancel
Insta360 is a cloud storage and editing platform designed for users of Insta360 action and 360-degree cameras. The service most Malaysians subscribe to is Insta360+, a paid tier that offers online backup, cloud editing tools, export functionality and seamless 360-degree playback. If you use an Insta360 camera and pay for cloud features, you need to understand your cancellation rights under Malaysian consumer law before you act.
The insta360+ subscription explained
Insta360+ operates on a subscription model with two main plans available to Malaysian users. The Essential Plan costs RM34.99 per year, while the Premium Plan is priced at RM138.99 per year. Both plans include 200GB of cloud storage, automatic backup, cloud editing and export tools, and 360-degree sharing and playback features. The Premium tier adds a camera replacement benefit, which appeals to professional users and content creators who rely on daily equipment.
When you sign up, Insta360 typically offers a 30-day free trial. Once the trial expires, the subscription renews automatically at the stated price unless you cancel before the renewal date. This automatic renewal is the key reason many Malaysian users find themselves paying for a service they no longer use-and it is exactly why cancellation timing matters.
Why malaysian users cancel Insta360
Users cancel for several reasons. Some sign up for the free trial, use it briefly for camera footage backup, then forget the renewal date passes. Others subscribe for one specific feature-such as cloud backup-then realize they are also paying for editing and sharing tools they never touch. Content creators who move to competing camera brands or switch to cheaper cloud platforms like Google Drive also cancel to cut costs. When a camera is lost, stolen or replaced, keeping an Insta360+ subscription becomes unnecessary.
The cancellation process itself is not advertised prominently on the Insta360 Malaysia store, which is why many users struggle to find the right button or form. At Yafee, we help you navigate this friction and cancel cleanly, without unexpected charges on your next billing cycle.
Your legal position under malaysian consumer law
Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 (CPA 1999) sets out your rights when you cancel a subscription service. Understanding this framework is essential before you take action.
Your cancellation rights under the CPA 1999
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, a consumer-which you are-has the right to terminate a contract within a reasonable period without penalty, provided the service provider has been notified in writing and the cancellation is made before the renewal date. Insta360's terms state that cancellation must occur before the automatic renewal triggers a new charge. This is binding on the company under Malaysian law.
In accordance with the CPA 1999, Insta360 must not charge you a penalty or early termination fee for cancelling a subscription, as long as the cancellation is made in time. If the company deducts a cancellation fee from a refund, or charges your card after your cancellation request, you have grounds to dispute the charge through the legal framework and the enforcement body.
The role of the ministry of domestic trade and cost of living
The Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (MDTCCL) enforces the Consumer Protection Act 1999 in Malaysia. If Insta360 refuses to refund an unauthorised charge or fails to honour your cancellation request, you can lodge a formal complaint with the MDTCCL. They investigate breaches of consumer rights and can compel companies to issue refunds or take corrective action. This safety net exists to protect you, even if Insta360's customer service is slow to respond.
Yafee recommends that you keep screenshots of every step in the cancellation process. If a dispute arises later, this evidence-your cancellation confirmation, billing dates and correspondence-will support your claim under the CPA 1999.
Cancellation methods and how to choose
Insta360 offers multiple ways to cancel your subscription, depending on where and how you bought it. The method you use affects the speed of cancellation and the ease of obtaining a refund.
Cancellation methods available in malaysia
| Cancellation method | Best for | Processing time | Refund eligible |
|---|---|---|---|
| Insta360 web account (official store) | Direct purchases from Insta360 | Instant | Yes, if within grace period |
| Apple App Store (iOS) | iPhone or iPad users | 1-2 business days | Yes, within 14-day window |
| Google Play Store (Android) | Android device users | 1-2 business days | Yes, within 15-day window |
| Email to [email protected] | Users unable to access app or web account | 3-5 business days | Yes, if requested before renewal |
| Live chat via Insta360 Help Center | Users needing immediate guidance | 2-4 hours during business hours | Yes, depends on timing |
The fastest route is cancellation through the official Insta360 web account, because the action is instant and you receive immediate confirmation. If you bought the subscription through Apple App Store or Google Play, you must cancel through that platform; otherwise, the subscription will continue to renew and the payment will keep processing.
Step-by-step cancellation process
Follow these steps to cancel your Insta360 subscription cleanly and protect your account. Each method is detailed below, starting with the most common route.
Before you cancel: essential checks
Take these actions now, before you press the cancel button, to avoid disputes later.
- Log into your Insta360 account and locate your subscription details.
- Note your renewal date (the date your next charge will occur).
- Record your current plan name (Essential or Premium).
- Identify the payment method linked to the subscription.
- Take a screenshot of your plan page, billing date and any active trial status.
- Save these images in a folder named "Insta360 Cancellation" on your device.
- This proof is essential if you later dispute an unauthorised charge.
- Export or download any media stored in your Insta360 cloud account that you cannot afford to lose.
- After cancellation, Insta360 grants you a 60-day grace period to view your media, but you cannot upload, export or share files during this window.
- After 60 days, all cloud-stored media is deleted permanently.
- Confirm which platform processed your original subscription.
- Was it the official Insta360 store, Apple App Store, Google Play, or a third-party reseller?
- This determines which cancellation method you must use.
Cancel through the Insta360 web account
This method applies if you subscribed directly on the Insta360 Malaysia store or website.
- Visit the Insta360 store at store.insta360.com/my and log into your account.
- Enter your email address and password.
- If you have two-factor authentication enabled, complete that step.
- Navigate to the Orders or Subscriptions section of your account.
- In most account dashboards, this appears in the left sidebar or under Account Settings.
- Look for a label such as "My Orders", "Billing", "Subscriptions" or "Active Plans".
- Find the Insta360+ subscription entry in the list.
- It will show the plan name, renewal date and amount due at renewal.
- Click on the subscription entry to open its details.
- Look for a button or link labelled "Cancel subscription", "Stop renewal", "Unsubscribe" or similar.
- Click this button to proceed to the cancellation form.
- Some interfaces show this option under a three-dot menu or "Manage" button.
- Complete the cancellation form if prompted.
- Insta360 may ask why you are cancelling; this is optional feedback, not a barrier to cancellation.
- Do not let optional questions delay your action.
- Confirm the cancellation by clicking "Confirm cancellation" or a similar final button.
- The page should then display a confirmation message, typically saying "Your subscription has been cancelled" or "Your subscription will not renew on [date]".
- Screenshot this confirmation immediately.
- Check your email for a cancellation confirmation message from Insta360.
- This email will arrive within 15 minutes and will restate the cancellation date and final billing date.
- Save this email in a folder for your records.
Cancel through apple app store (iOS)
If you subscribed or renewed your Insta360+ plan via Apple App Store on an iPhone or iPad, you must cancel through the App Store, not the Insta360 website.
- Open the Apple App Store app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Do not use a web browser; the App Store app is required.
- Tap the profile icon (your face or initials) in the top right corner of the screen.
- If prompted to sign in, use your Apple ID and password.
- Select "Subscriptions" from the menu.
- This displays all active and inactive subscriptions linked to your Apple ID.
- Find "Insta360" or "Insta360+" in the subscription list and tap it.
- The entry will show your renewal date and current payment method.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" or "Edit" (depending on your iOS version).
- On newer iOS versions, you may see a red "Cancel Subscription" button.
- On older versions, tap "Edit" first, then select "Cancel Subscription".
- Confirm the cancellation by tapping "Confirm" or "Stop subscription" when prompted.
- Apple will ask if you want to keep using the service until the end of the current billing period; select "Keep" and the subscription will expire after your final charge.
- Alternatively, select "Stop immediately" if you wish to lose access at once (refunds depend on Apple's policy and your location).
- Take a screenshot showing "This subscription has been cancelled" or a similar message.
- Apple sends a confirmation email; save this to your records.
Cancel through google play store (Android)
If you subscribed via Google Play Store on an Android device, you must cancel through Google Play, not the Insta360 website.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap the profile icon (your photo or initials) in the top right corner.
- Select "Manage subscriptions" from the dropdown menu.
- This shows all active subscriptions on your Google account.
- Find "Insta360" or "Insta360+" in the list and tap it.
- The entry displays your renewal date, billing amount and payment method.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" at the bottom of the screen.
- Google Play may show you a cancellation survey; answer or skip it.
- Confirm the cancellation by selecting "Yes, cancel subscription" when prompted.
- Your subscription will expire at the end of your current billing period.
- Screenshot the confirmation screen showing your subscription is now "Cancelled" or "Will not renew".
- Google sends a confirmation email to your registered Gmail address; keep this as proof.
Cancel by email if you cannot access your account
If you cannot log into your Insta360 account or the app, send a formal cancellation request by email.
- Compose an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Subscription cancellation request - [your email address]".
- Example: "Subscription cancellation request - [email protected]".
- In the email body, include the following details:
- Your full name.
- The email address associated with your Insta360 account.
- Your current subscription plan (Essential or Premium).
- Your renewal date (if known).
- A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my Insta360+ subscription, effective immediately or before [renewal date], and I do not wish to be charged again."
- Send the email from the email address linked to your Insta360 account.
- This proves ownership and makes Insta360's job easier.
- Allow 3 to 5 business days for a response.
- Insta360 will reply with a cancellation confirmation email and confirmation number.
- Save both the original email and the response as proof.
- If you do not receive a reply within 5 business days, send a follow-up email to the same address.
- Reference your original email date and request a response within 2 business days.
Cancel via live chat if you need immediate help
The Insta360 Help Center offers live chat support during business hours. This method is fastest if you are unsure which cancellation route to take or if you encounter errors during the process.
- Visit the Insta360 Help Center (typically found at help.insta360.com or within the app under Support).
- Look for a chat icon or "Contact us" button.
- Click "Start live chat" and log in with your Insta360 account if prompted.
- You may chat as a guest if you cannot log in.
- Type your message: "I want to cancel my Insta360+ subscription. Can you help me?"
- The support agent will ask for your account email and order details.
- Provide these details clearly.
- Ask the agent to confirm the cancellation in writing by email once the chat ends.
- Do not end the chat until the agent confirms they will send a confirmation email.
- Screenshot the entire chat history before closing the window.
- Right-click the page, select "Print" or "Save as PDF", and save the document.
- Save the confirmation email when it arrives.
- Live chat confirmations typically arrive within 2 hours during business hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm Malaysia time).
What happens after you cancel Insta360
Cancellation is not the end of the process; several events occur after you press the final confirmation button, and you should know what to expect.
Access and data retention after cancellation
Your Insta360+ account remains accessible for 60 days after cancellation, but with limitations. You can view media stored in your cloud account during this grace period, but you cannot upload, export or share new files. After 60 days, Insta360 permanently deletes all cloud-stored media, so if there is footage you need, download it before the 60-day window closes.
Your camera still works; cancellation only removes the cloud features. You can continue to record and store footage locally on your device. If you restart your subscription within 60 days, your cloud media is restored.
Billing and the final charge
If you cancelled before your renewal date, no further charge will occur. Your final payment was the last one you make to Insta360. If you cancelled after the renewal date passed (meaning Insta360 already charged you for the next period), you are entitled to a refund under the Consumer Protection Act 1999.
Check your bank or payment account 2 to 5 business days after cancellation. If Insta360 processed your cancellation before the renewal date, you will see no new charge. If an unexpected charge appears after you cancelled, contact your bank immediately and request a chargeback while simultaneously notifying Insta360 in writing via email to dispute the charge.
Resubscription and future offers
After cancellation, Insta360 may email you promotional offers or reminders to resubscribe, especially if you are a long-term user or if you used the Premium plan. You are under no obligation to accept these offers. If you do not wish to receive marketing emails from Insta360, reply to any promotional email with "Unsubscribe" in the subject line, or adjust your email preferences in your account settings if you reactivate it later.
Refund eligibility and how to claim
Your eligibility for a refund depends on timing, the platform, and the reason for cancellation.
Refund eligibility by platform and timing
| Platform | Refund window | Eligible for refund | How to claim |
|---|---|---|---|
| Insta360 official store | Up to 14 days before renewal or within 7 days after accidental charge | Yes, if within window | Email [email protected] with cancellation confirmation |
| Apple App Store (iOS) | 14 days from purchase or renewal | Yes, if within 14-day window | Request refund in App Store via "Report a Problem" |
| Google Play Store (Android) | 15 days from purchase or renewal | Yes, if within 15-day window | Request refund in Google Play via "Cancel order" or "Request refund" |
| Accidental double charge (any platform) | Dispute within 90 days | Yes, always eligible | Contact your bank or payment provider to initiate chargeback |
| Charged after cancellation request (any platform) | Dispute within 120 days | Yes, under CPA 1999 | Email proof of cancellation and dispute charge with your bank or Insta360 |
How to claim a refund from Insta360 direct
If you subscribed on the official Insta360 store and your cancellation occurred within 14 days of a charge you wish to dispute, follow this process.
- Gather your cancellation confirmation email and a screenshot of your billing history showing the charge in question.
- Email [email protected] with the subject "Refund request - [your email address] - [order number if known]".
- In the email, explain that you cancelled before the renewal date but were charged, or that the charge occurred after you cancelled. Attach your screenshots.
- State the amount you wish to refund and request the refund be processed to the original payment method within 7 business days.
- Insta360 will respond within 3 to 5 business days confirming the refund. Monitor your bank account; the refund typically appears within 5 to 7 business days after Insta360 approves it.
How to claim a refund through apple app store
Apple handles refunds directly; Insta360 is not involved in this process once you request it through the App Store.
- Open the Apple App Store app and tap your profile icon.
- Select "Purchase history" or go to the Apple ID settings and tap "Media & Purchases".
- Find the Insta360+ renewal charge you wish to dispute.
- Tap the charge and select "Report a Problem".
- Choose a reason such as "I was charged incorrectly" or "I didn't authorise this charge".
- Explain the issue in the text box (e.g., "I cancelled before the renewal date but was charged on [date]").
- Submit the report. Apple reviews refund requests and typically responds within 1 to 2 business days.
- If approved, the refund is credited to your Apple ID balance or to your original payment method within 7 to 10 business days.
How to claim a refund through google play
Like Apple, Google processes refunds independently. Insta360 does not intervene once the claim is filed with Google.
- Open the Google Play Store app and tap your profile icon.
- Select "Payments and subscriptions", then "Manage subscriptions" or "Transactions".
- Find the Insta360+ charge in question and tap it.
- Select "Request refund".
- Choose a reason such as "I didn't authorise this charge" or "I cancelled my subscription".
- Add a brief explanation if prompted (e.g., "I cancelled before the renewal date on [date] but was charged").
- Submit the request. Google reviews this within 1 to 3 business days.
- If approved, the refund is issued to your original payment method within 5 to 10 business days.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
You are not alone if you have worried about cancelling a subscription. Below are the pitfalls most users encounter, and the safest way to sidestep each one.
Mistake 1: cancelling in the wrong place
Many users cancel the Insta360 app itself (uninstall it) instead of cancelling the subscription. Uninstalling the app does not cancel the subscription; the payment continues to renew in the background. Conversely, some users try to cancel through the Insta360 website when they actually subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play, and the website cancellation has no effect because the payment is processed by the app store, not Insta360.
Fix: Always check where you bought the subscription first. Log into the account settings in your Insta360 app and look for a payment or subscription section. If it says "Managed by Apple" or "Managed by Google", you must cancel through that platform, not the website. Only cancel on the Insta360 website if you bought directly from the store.
Mistake 2: cancelling too close to the renewal date
Insta360 renewal charges process on the exact renewal date listed in your account. If you cancel on the morning of the renewal date, the charge may have already processed. Cancellation is effective immediately, but the charge for that day is final and requires a separate refund request.
Fix: Cancel at least 2 to 3 days before your renewal date. Log into your account, check the exact renewal date, and set a phone reminder for 3 days before that date. When the reminder triggers, cancel immediately. This buffer prevents accidental charges.
Mistake 3: assuming customer service will cancel for you
Some users email or chat with Insta360 support and ask them to "cancel my account for me", without taking any action themselves. The support agent may promise to cancel, but delays or miscommunication can result in a charge if the cancellation is not completed before the renewal date.
Fix: Always cancel through the official channels (website, app store, or your account settings) yourself. You control the timing and you get immediate confirmation. If you use email or chat support, ask them to guide you through the self-service cancellation or to send you a written confirmation (by email) that the cancellation was processed. Do not rely on a verbal promise or a chat log alone.
Mistake 4: not exporting media before cancellation
Users often forget that the 60-day grace period after cancellation prevents uploads and exports. If you wait until after cancellation to download important footage, you have only 60 days to do it, and the export function may be disabled or slow.
Fix: Before you cancel, download or export all media you wish to keep. This takes 30 minutes to a few hours depending on file size. Save the files to your computer or external drive. Once this is complete, you can cancel worry-free.
Mistake 5: losing the cancellation confirmation
Cancellation confirmations are easy to miss or delete. If you later dispute a charge, Insta360 will ask you to prove that you cancelled before the renewal date. Without the confirmation, the burden falls on you to prove the negative-that you did not choose to renew.
Fix: Screenshot or forward every confirmation email to a dedicated folder on your computer named "Insta360 Cancellation". Save the confirmation message, the date and time, and any order or confirmation numbers. Keep this folder for 12 months after cancellation, even if no dispute arises.
Pricing and plan comparison
Understanding what you are paying for helps you decide whether cancellation is the right choice, or whether a plan change might be better.
| Plan | Annual cost (MYR) | Storage | Key features | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essential Plan | RM34.99 | 200GB | Backup, editing, export, 360 sharing | Casual users and backup seekers |
| Premium Plan | RM138.99 | 200GB | All Essential features plus camera replacement benefit | Professional creators and insurance seekers |
| Free (no subscription) | RM0 | Limited | Local storage only, no cloud features | Users who do not need cloud backup |
If you are cancelling only because the Premium Plan is too expensive, consider downgrading to the Essential Plan instead. The Essential Plan costs less than half the Premium price and retains all core features. Similarly, if you rarely use the cloud features, you might just store footage locally and skip the subscription altogether. Yafee recommends that you clarify your actual needs before cancelling, in case a plan change is a better fit than a full cancellation.
When to cancel versus when to keep your subscription
Before you commit to cancellation, ask yourself whether the service still brings value, or whether your situation has genuinely changed.
Signs you should cancel
- You no longer own or use an Insta360 camera.
- You have switched to a different brand of camera.
- You use free alternatives (such as Google Drive or Dropbox) for backup instead.
- You do not upload or export footage more than once a month.
- You have not logged into the app in the past 6 months.
- You cannot afford the annual fee and do not use the paid features.
- You export all your media and no longer need cloud storage.
Signs you might want to keep your subscription
- You record weekly with an Insta360 camera and rely on cloud backup.
- You use the cloud editing and export tools for content creation.
- You value the camera replacement benefit on the Premium Plan.
- Your annual cost (RM34.99 or RM138.99) is insignificant relative to your income.
- You travel frequently and the auto-backup feature is essential to your workflow.
- You worry about losing footage and appreciate the redundancy of cloud storage.

Malaysian consumer authority (escalation)
If Insta360 refuses to refund an unauthorised charge or ignores your cancellation request, you can lodge a formal complaint with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (MDTCCL).
- Agency: Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Kos Hidup)
- Consumer complaints: Available through the MDTCCL website or by contacting your nearest state office
- Contact: Refer to the MDTCCL website for regional phone numbers and office addresses
When escalating to the MDTCCL, provide your cancellation confirmation, billing history, any refund requests you made to Insta360, and copies of all correspondence. The MDTCCL investigates breaches of the Consumer Protection Act 1999 and can compel Insta360 to issue refunds or take corrective action.
Yafee recommends keeping all documentation for at least 12 months after cancellation. If a dispute arises, this evidence is your strongest defense. Reach out to Yafee today to download a free cancellation checklist and ensure every step is documented correctly.
