How to cancel B612 on iOS and android in new zealand
What is B612 and why you might want to cancel
B612 is a photo and video editing application that offers free creative tools alongside a paid VIP subscription tier. The app enables you to apply beauty filters, effects, and templates to selfies and short videos through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
You may be considering cancellation if the VIP features don't align with your editing workflow, if you're consolidating subscriptions to reduce expenses, or if you've simply moved to another editor. Yafee is here to guide you through every stage so you cancel cleanly without hidden charges or unnecessary delays.
Free tier versus VIP features
B612's free version provides access to basic filters and editing tools. The VIP subscription unlocks advanced effects, removes watermarks, and grants access to exclusive templates and premium beauty filters. Most users find the cancellation process straightforward once they identify which platform they subscribed through.
When cancellation makes sense
You might cancel if you've switched to a different photo editor, if the subscription cost no longer justifies your usage, or if you prefer to rely on the free features. Cancelling your subscription differs from deleting your account; your photos and edits remain accessible even after you stop paying for the VIP tier.
Your legal position under new zealand consumer law
Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA), you hold statutory rights regarding any digital service or subscription. The legislation requires that services must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, and delivered with due care and skill. If B612 fails to meet these standards, you're entitled to a remedy.
Furthermore, the CGA permits you to cancel a subscription agreement if the supplier has breached the contract or if the service materially fails to perform as described. The Commerce Commission (New Zealand's consumer enforcement authority) oversees compliance and can investigate complaints if B612 or its payment processor breaches consumer law.
Your cancellation rights
You have the right to cancel your B612 VIP subscription at any time, in accordance with the terms of service and the payment platform's cancellation policy. Most platforms (Apple, Google, PayPal) allow immediate cancellation with access ceasing at the end of your current billing cycle. You're not obligated to continue paying if you no longer use the service, and you have the right to request a refund if you can demonstrate that the service failed to meet reasonable consumer expectations within a reasonable timeframe.
Cancelling B612 through the apple app store
If you subscribed on iPhone or iPad, Apple manages your payment and renewal process. You control cancellation directly through your device settings, and the process takes approximately two minutes.
Step-by-step cancellation on iOS
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Look for the gear icon on your home screen.
- Tap your Apple ID name at the top of the Settings menu.
- You'll see your name, email address, and linked devices.
- Select Subscriptions from the menu options.
- This displays every active subscription linked to your Apple ID account.
- Find and tap B612 in the subscription list.
- If you don't see it immediately, scroll down to check all active subscriptions.
- Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom of the screen.
- Apple may offer a "keep subscription" option; disregard this if you want to proceed with cancellation.
- Confirm your cancellation by tapping Confirm.
- You'll receive a confirmation message displaying your final billing date.
If you need a refund through apple
Apple permits refund requests up to 180 days after purchase, though approvals are most common within 14 days of submission. If you've cancelled but wish to dispute a charge, visit reportaproblem.apple.com and select the B612 transaction. Under New Zealand consumer law, you're entitled to a remedy if the service failed to meet your reasonable expectations within a reasonable timeframe. Apple's New Zealand support page at support.apple.com/en-nz/118223 outlines your available options.
Cancelling B612 through google play store
Android users subscribe through Google Play, which handles payments and subscription renewals. Cancellation is equally straightforward and can be completed from your phone or a web browser.
Step-by-step cancellation on android
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left corner.
- Navigate to Subscriptions.
- You'll see all your active subscriptions listed in one place.
- Tap B612 from the subscription list.
- This opens your B612 subscription details page.
- Select Cancel subscription (or Unsubscribe).
- Google Play will ask you to confirm your reason for cancellation.
- Choose your reason from the dropdown menu (optional).
- You may select "No longer interested," "Too expensive," or another option; this is not mandatory.
- Tap Cancel subscription to confirm.
- You'll receive confirmation that your subscription ends on a specified date.
If you need a refund through google play
Google Play allows you to request a refund within 48 hours of purchase. For older charges, you may still submit a dispute through your Google Play account or contact Google Play support directly. Yafee recommends checking your order history first to verify the exact transaction date; this information strengthens any refund request. If Google Play denies your refund request unfairly, you can escalate the complaint to the Commerce Commission under the CGA.
Cancelling B612 through PayPal
If you linked your B612 subscription to PayPal, you can cancel through your PayPal account directly. This method applies regardless of whether you access B612 via iOS or Android.
Cancellation via PayPal online
- Log in to your PayPal account at paypal.com.
- Use your email address and password.
- Navigate to Settings (gear icon in the top right).
- Select Payments from the menu.
- Click Manage automatic payments.
- This shows all active subscriptions and recurring payments.
- Find B612 in the list.
- Click on the B612 entry to view full details.
- Click Cancel (or Turn off).
- PayPal will confirm your cancellation immediately.
- Save your confirmation message or screenshot.
- This serves as proof of cancellation if a dispute arises later.
Cancellation via PayPal app
If you use the PayPal mobile app, tap the Menu icon (three horizontal lines), select Settings, then Payments, then Manage automatic payments. Locate B612, tap it, and select Cancel. The process mirrors the desktop method.
What happens after you cancel B612
Your cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You retain access to VIP features until that date arrives; after it passes, you'll revert to the free tier. Your photos, edits, and account data remain stored within the app indefinitely unless you manually delete them.
Checking your cancellation status
Return to the same platform where you cancelled (Apple Settings, Google Play, or PayPal) and verify that B612 no longer appears in your active subscriptions list. If it still shows as active, repeat the cancellation steps. Yafee advises keeping a screenshot of your cancellation confirmation for your records.
Reinstating your subscription
If you change your mind, you can resubscribe to B612 VIP at any time through the same platform. Your new subscription begins on the day you reactivate it, and you'll be charged the standard rate. No additional fees or penalties apply for cancelling and later resubscribing.

Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancelling a subscription feels straightforward once you know the steps, and most users complete the process without incident. Nevertheless, a few preventable errors can delay your cancellation or result in unexpected charges.
Deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription
Uninstalling B612 from your phone does not cancel your subscription. Payments continue until you explicitly cancel through the payment platform (Apple, Google, or PayPal). Always cancel first, then delete the app if you wish.
Assuming cancellation is immediate
Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle, not instantly. You'll be charged one final time on your next billing date before access ends. If you want to avoid this final charge, cancel as close to your renewal date as possible, but only after confirming the exact date.
Not saving your confirmation
Screenshots or emails confirming your cancellation protect you if B612 or the payment platform disputes the cancellation later. Yafee strongly recommends saving a record immediately after you cancel.
Failing to check your bank statement
Even after successful cancellation, verify your bank or PayPal statement one or two days after your subscription should have ended. If an unexpected charge appears, you can request a refund or raise a complaint with the Commerce Commission.
Refunds and dispute resolution under the consumer guarantees act
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 entitles you to a refund or remedy if B612 fails to deliver the standard of service a reasonable consumer would expect. This applies whether you paid through Apple, Google Play, or PayPal.
When you can claim a refund
You have grounds to claim a refund if B612 is significantly faulty, doesn't match the description, or is unfit for its intended purpose. For example, if VIP features crash repeatedly or advanced filters don't work as advertised, you can request a refund under the CGA.
How to request a refund from the payment platform
Contact the payment processor (Apple, Google Play, or PayPal) first, providing evidence of the fault and your cancellation request. Most platforms process refund requests within 7 to 14 business days. If the platform refuses your request unfairly, you can lodge a formal complaint with the Commerce Commission.
Escalating to the commerce commission
If B612, Apple, Google Play, or PayPal breaches consumer law, you can file a complaint with the Commerce Commission. Visit comcom.govt.nz to lodge a formal complaint or call their consumer hotline. The Commerce Commission investigates violations of the CGA and has the power to compel refunds and impose penalties on suppliers.

Why users cancel and what they switch to
Users cancel B612 for several common reasons. Some find the VIP features redundant after trial periods expire. Others switch to editing tools with more robust video capabilities, such as CapCut or Adobe Premiere Rush. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers navigate cancellation decisions, and the most frequent drivers are cost reduction, feature misalignment, and preference for desktop editing software.
If you're evaluating whether to cancel, consider whether the features you use justify the ongoing cost. Many users successfully downgrade to the free tier and only resubscribe when they need advanced effects for a specific project.
If you encounter technical issues during cancellation or have questions about your subscription, B612's support team can assist. No dedicated postal address for New Zealand cancellation requests has been publicly documented; consequently, you must cancel through the in-app platform or contact B612 via email or the app itself.
Most photo editor applications provide an in-app help section accessible from the Settings menu. Yafee recommends checking this first before attempting to locate external contact details.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling B612 is a straightforward process once you identify your payment platform. If you subscribed via iOS, use Apple Settings to cancel. If you're on Android, navigate to Google Play Store Subscriptions. If you linked PayPal, cancel through your PayPal account settings. Each method takes fewer than five minutes.
Your cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle, and you retain access to VIP features until that date. Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, you're protected if B612 fails to meet reasonable consumer expectations. If the app malfunctions or you're overcharged after cancellation, you can request a refund from the payment platform or escalate your complaint to the Commerce Commission.
Save your cancellation confirmation, check your bank statement a few days after your final renewal, and verify that your subscription no longer appears as active. Yafee has guided thousands of consumers through subscription cancellations across New Zealand, ensuring they exit cleanly and retain their consumer rights. Take action today, confirm your cancellation within 24 hours, and move forward with confidence knowing your subscription is terminated and your account is protected under New Zealand law.
