How to cancel Duet Display subscription in singapore: your complete legal guide
What Duet Display is and why you might cancel
Duet Display transforms your tablet or smartphone into a second monitor for your computer, expanding your workspace and enhancing productivity across multiple devices. The application connects via wired or wireless connection and offers three subscription tiers-Starter, Air, and Pro-each progressively unlocking features such as graphics tablet support, remote desktop access, and advanced pressure sensitivity for stylus input.
You may decide to cancel your Duet Display subscription for several legitimate reasons: cumulative subscription fees strain your budget, you no longer require a second display in your workflow, you prefer competing solutions, or you wish to reassess your software spending. Whatever your circumstances, Yafee provides a clear, step-by-step cancellation procedure grounded in Singapore consumer law, ensuring you understand both your rights and your obligations before you proceed.
Common reasons to cancel Duet Display
Many users activate subscriptions during promotional trial periods, only to discover later that the second-display feature does not integrate meaningfully into their daily work. Others migrate to alternative tools such as Luna Display or more economical options. Some users find that their professional or personal workflow does not genuinely benefit from additional screen real estate, making the recurring charge unjustifiable. Yafee recognises that cancellation should be straightforward; confusion or deliberate obfuscation serves neither you nor the provider.
Subscription costs in singapore
Duet Display pricing in Singapore varies according to the plan tier and billing cycle you select. Reviewing these costs against your actual usage patterns helps you determine whether retention or cancellation aligns with your financial priorities.

If you hold an annual plan, you pay a larger sum upfront than monthly subscribers. Cancelling partway through an annual term does not automatically trigger a refund; however, understanding your statutory cancellation rights under Singapore law is essential. Yafee explains those protections in detail below.
Your consumer rights when you cancel Duet Display
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act establishes mandatory safeguards whenever you purchase digital services, and those protections directly apply to your Duet Display subscription.
Understanding the consumer protection (Fair trading) act
Under Singapore law, digital service providers must disclose subscription terms, renewal dates, and cancellation methods clearly and in advance. You possess the right to accurate information before payment occurs, and you may challenge unfair or opaque contract terms through official channels. If Duet Display breaches these obligations-for instance, by rendering cancellation deliberately burdensome or concealing the renewal date-you retain the authority to lodge a formal complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE).
The Act further protects you against automatic renewals that lack transparent, prior consent. Should Duet Display charge you without explicit prior authorisation, or should the company continue charging after you cancelled, CASE may investigate and intervene on your behalf. Yafee strongly recommends preserving all confirmation emails, cancellation receipts, and correspondence as documentary evidence of your actions and the service provider's response.
Your legal position
You have the statutory right under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act to cancel a digital service subscription without penalty, provided the company has complied with transparency obligations. If Duet Display fails to honour a valid cancellation request, or charges you after cancellation, CASE acts as Singapore's primary enforcement body. You may escalate to CASE without cost if the company refuses to cancel or disputes your account status.
Methods to cancel Duet Display
Duet Display offers multiple cancellation pathways depending on your subscription type and account platform, and you must select the method that corresponds to your purchase channel.
Cancellation via in-app settings (iOS and android)
Mobile app subscriptions purchased through Apple App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android) require cancellation through those respective platforms rather than directly via Duet Display itself. This separation of payment occurs because Apple and Google manage billing, not Duet Display.
Cancellation via web account or email (Mac/Windows)
If you subscribed via the Duet Display website or desktop application on macOS or Windows, you must contact Duet Display's support team directly via email. This pathway ensures Duet Display receives your cancellation instruction from an authenticated account holder.
Cancellation via apple app store subscription management (iOS)
Users with iOS devices who subscribed through Apple's platform must manage cancellation within the App Store rather than within the Duet Display app itself.
Cancellation via google play subscription management (Android)
Android users who subscribed through Google Play must access Google Play's subscription settings to cancel, not Duet Display's internal controls.
Step-by-step cancellation procedure
Follow these precise procedural steps to cancel your Duet Display subscription and halt future charges before your next billing cycle.
Step one: verify your subscription details and billing date
Before initiating cancellation, you must identify your current subscription tier, active billing cycle, and the date of your next charge. This information appears in your account settings or the most recent confirmation email from Duet Display or the payment platform (Apple, Google, Stripe, or PayPal).
- Log into your Duet Display account on the platform where you subscribed (website, iOS App Store, or Google Play)
- Navigate to Account Settings or Subscription Management
- Locate your active subscription plan and renewal date
- Record the next billing date; cancellation must occur before this date to prevent a further charge
Step two: cancel iOS subscription through apple app store
If you subscribed via Apple App Store on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you must cancel through Apple's subscription interface, not through the Duet Display app.
- Open the Apple App Store application on your iOS device or visit the App Store on macOS
- Tap or click your profile icon in the top right corner
- Select Subscriptions
- Find and tap Duet Display from the active subscriptions list
- Tap Cancel Subscription or Turn Off Automatic Renewal
- Confirm your cancellation request when prompted by Apple
- Apple will immediately display a confirmation message; take a screenshot or note the cancellation date
Step three: cancel android subscription through google play
If you subscribed via Google Play on an Android device, you must cancel through Google Play's subscription management interface.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner
- Select Manage subscriptions or Subscriptions
- Find Duet Display in the list of active subscriptions
- Tap on the Duet Display subscription
- Select Cancel subscription
- Follow Google Play's cancellation prompts and confirm your intention to cancel
- Google Play will send a confirmation email; retain this email as proof
Step four: cancel via direct email to Duet Display support
If you subscribed through the Duet Display website or desktop application, you must submit a written cancellation request to Duet Display's support team via email. This creates a documented record of your cancellation instruction.
- Compose an email to [email protected] or the current support address listed on the official Duet Display website
- Include the following information in your email:
- Your full name as it appears on your Duet Display account
- The email address associated with your subscription
- Your current subscription tier (Starter, Air, or Pro)
- A clear statement: "I hereby request immediate cancellation of my Duet Display subscription"
- Your preferred cancellation date (or immediate cancellation)
- Request written acknowledgement of your cancellation request
- Send the email from the address associated with your Duet Display account
- Retain a copy of your sent email and any reply for your records
Step five: confirm cancellation and check your next billing date
After you submit your cancellation request via any of the above channels, Duet Display or the payment platform must confirm the cancellation and update your account status within 3-5 business days.
- Check your email inbox (including spam and promotions folders) for a cancellation confirmation from Apple, Google, or Duet Display
- Log back into your account on the respective platform within 3-5 business days
- Verify that your subscription status now shows as Cancelled or that automatic renewal is disabled
- Confirm that your next billing date no longer appears in your account settings
- If no confirmation arrives or your status remains unchanged, escalate via email or contact CASE as described below
What happens after you cancel
Cancellation does not immediately revoke your access to Duet Display; rather, your subscription converts to a limited state until your existing billing period expires.
Access to Duet Display after cancellation
Once you cancel, you retain full access to the Duet Display application until your current billing cycle ends. For example, if you cancel on 15 January and your renewal date is 28 January, you may continue to use Duet Display at your current tier until 28 January, after which the app either downgrades to a free tier (if available) or becomes unusable pending a new subscription.
No refund for early cancellation
Duet Display does not issue refunds for early cancellation of active subscriptions, even if you cancel partway through an annual billing period. This is standard practice for digital service subscriptions in Singapore and is permitted under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, provided the subscription terms were clearly disclosed before purchase. However, if Duet Display charged you without clear prior consent, or if the company continued charging after you cancelled, you may claim a refund through CASE.
Confirmation of zero future charges
Once your billing cycle ends, you will incur no further charges unless you manually resubscribe to Duet Display. Monitor your credit card or payment method statements for 30 days after your expected cancellation date to confirm no recurring charges appear. If an unexpected charge occurs, report it immediately to your payment provider and escalate to CASE if Duet Display does not refund within 14 days.
Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
Cancellation need not be stressful if you sidestep these frequent pitfalls that delay or complicate the process.
Mistake one: assuming in-app cancellation buttons work for all platforms
Many users tap a Cancel button within the Duet Display app itself, believing this completes the cancellation. In reality, if you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play, the in-app button often does nothing; you must cancel through Apple or Google's own platforms. Verify your subscription source (website, Apple, or Google) before attempting cancellation, and always use the matching cancellation channel.
Mistake two: failing to document your cancellation request
If you email Duet Display directly, take screenshots of your sent email and retain any reply. This documentary evidence proves your cancellation instruction should the company later claim they never received your request. Yafee advises sending cancellation emails from your registered account email address and requesting written acknowledgement in return.
Mistake three: cancelling too close to the renewal date
If your renewal date is tomorrow and you cancel today, the charge may already have processed. Apple, Google, and Duet Display require 24-48 hours to process cancellations; therefore, cancel at least 48 hours before your next billing date to avoid an unwanted charge. If you are charged after cancellation, contact your payment provider and file a dispute claim immediately.
Mistake four: not checking your account status post-cancellation
Submit your cancellation, wait 3-5 business days, then return to verify your subscription status. Some providers experience processing delays, and your account may still display as active even after a successful cancellation instruction. If the status does not update within this window, contact Duet Display support directly and request urgent escalation.
Refund eligibility and dispute resolution
Cancellation and refund entitlements operate under distinct legal rules in Singapore, and Yafee clarifies both to ensure you know when you may reclaim funds.
When you are eligible for a refund
You are entitled to a refund under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act if Duet Display charged you without clear, prior consent; continued charging after you validly cancelled; or failed to honour your cancellation request within a reasonable timeframe. You are not entitled to a refund merely for changing your mind or for cancelling partway through an annual subscription, unless the company breached its transparency or cancellation obligations.
How to dispute an unwanted charge
If Duet Display charged you after you cancelled, or if you did not authorise a charge:
- Contact your payment provider (Apple, Google, PayPal, Stripe, or your credit card issuer) within 30 days of the disputed charge
- Submit a formal dispute or chargeback request, citing the date you cancelled and evidence (email, screenshots) of your cancellation
- Your payment provider will investigate and may issue a provisional credit while the dispute proceeds
- If your payment provider rules in your favour, the charge is reversed within 5-10 business days
- If your payment provider rules against you, escalate to CASE with copies of all correspondence
Escalating to the consumers association of singapore (CASE)
If Duet Display refuses to cancel, disputes your cancellation, or ignores your refund claim, file a formal complaint with CASE at www.case.org.sg or call 6100 0820. Yafee recommends providing CASE with:
- Copies of all emails and correspondence with Duet Display
- Screenshots of your account settings and subscription status
- Proof of charges (bank statements or payment provider records)
- The date you requested cancellation and any responses from Duet Display
- Details of your payment method and billing address
CASE will contact Duet Display on your behalf and seek resolution. If the dispute cannot be mediated, CASE may refer your claim to the Small Claims Tribunal for adjudication.
Comparison: cancel versus downgrade
Before you finalise cancellation, consider whether downgrading to a lower tier may better serve your needs, as downgrade options are sometimes available.
