How to cancel Quinn and stop audio story charges today
What Quinn is and why cancellation matters
Quinn is a subscription service that delivers immersive audio stories directly to your mobile device through a freemium app operated by Quinn Inc. The platform offers a growing catalog of narrative content, with most stories locked behind a recurring monthly or annual subscription fee. You download the app for free, but unlocking the full library and premium features requires a paid plan: $7.99 per month or $59.99 annually. Like many digital subscriptions, Quinn combines convenience with ongoing charges-and if you're no longer listening or your budget has shifted, canceling now can save you real money. At Yafee, we help you navigate exactly how to cancel cleanly and protect yourself from surprise future charges.
Quinn subscription pricing breakdown
Understanding what you're paying for helps you decide whether cancellation makes sense. Quinn offers two primary recurring plans in the United States, plus optional one-time purchases to support creators.
| Plan type |
Monthly cost |
Annual cost |
Effective monthly cost |
| Monthly subscription |
$7.99 |
$95.88 per year |
$7.99 |
| Annual subscription (best value) |
N/A |
$59.99 |
$4.99 |
If you've been on a monthly plan for a year, you've paid $95.88. The annual plan saves $35.89 over 12 months-but if you're canceling altogether, neither plan matters anymore. Most users don't recoup the annual upfront cost before losing interest, so monthly cancellations are far more common.
When you should cancel Quinn
You should cancel Quinn if you're no longer listening regularly, if the subscription doesn't fit your current budget, or if you prefer other audio platforms. You might also cancel if you subscribed on trial, realized it wasn't for you, and want to stop before renewal hits your account. At Yafee, we've helped thousands of users cancel subscriptions they simply forgot about-the "set and forget" business model exists, but it shouldn't drain your bank account. Canceling immediately protects your funds and gives you back control over your discretionary spending.
Your consumer rights under federal law
Federal law gives you strong protections when canceling recurring subscriptions like Quinn.
What the federal trade commission act requires
The Federal Trade Commission Act (16 U.S.C. § 45) requires that businesses honor cancellation requests and stop charging you within a reasonable timeframe. Under the Restore Online Shoppers Confidence Act (ROSCA), Quinn must provide you with a simple, easy, and free cancellation mechanism that operates the same way you signed up. If you subscribed in-app, you should be able to cancel in-app. If you've been charged after cancellation or if Quinn made cancellation deliberately difficult, you have grounds to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and your state's Attorney General office.
Your legal position
You have the right to cancel anytime without penalty. Quinn cannot bill you again without your affirmative consent. Your credit card company also offers you protection: you can dispute unauthorized charges through your bank within 60 days if you provide documentation that you requested cancellation. At Yafee, we recommend you always take screenshots or save confirmation emails after canceling, because these documents protect you if Quinn tries to charge you again.
Methods to cancel Quinn and which is safest
You have several ways to cancel your Quinn subscription, and each has different levels of protection and speed.
Cancel directly in the Quinn app or on the website
Canceling through Quinn's official channels is the fastest and most documented method. This approach creates an immediate record with Quinn's servers and allows you to receive confirmation instantly.
- Open the Quinn app on your mobile device or visit tryquinn.com in your web browser.
- Navigate to your account settings.
- In the app: tap the profile icon or menu, then select "Settings" or "Account".
- On the website: click your account icon in the top right corner, then select "Account Settings".
- Select "Manage Account" or "Billing" from the menu options.
- Locate the "Cancel Subscription" button and tap or click it.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm your cancellation.
- Quinn may ask why you're leaving-this is optional feedback, not a required survey.
- You may see retention offers; decline these if you want to cancel immediately.
- Wait for the confirmation screen or email. Screenshot this confirmation for your records.
- Verify that your subscription status shows "Cancelled" in your account settings within 24 hours.
Cancel through the apple app store
If you subscribed to Quinn via Apple's App Store, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system, not through Quinn itself. Apple handles your billing directly, so Quinn cannot process your cancellation.
- On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
- Tap your Apple ID at the top of the screen.
- Select "Subscriptions".
- Find "Quinn" in your active subscriptions list.
- Tap "Quinn" and select "Cancel Subscription".
- Confirm your cancellation by tapping the final "Confirm" button.
- Screenshot the confirmation screen showing "Your subscription to Quinn has been cancelled."
Cancel through google play
If you subscribed via Google Play on an Android device, Google processes your billing and subscription cancellation. You must cancel through Google Play, not the Quinn app itself.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Payments and subscriptions" or "Manage subscriptions".
- Tap "Subscriptions" to see your active subscriptions.
- Find "Quinn" in the list and tap it.
- Select "Cancel subscription" and confirm by tapping "Yes, cancel".
- Screenshot the confirmation message showing your cancellation status.
Which method is safest?
Direct cancellation through the Quinn app or website (tryquinn.com) creates the clearest paper trail with Quinn itself and leaves no intermediary involved. If you subscribed via Apple or Google, you must cancel through those platforms because they control your billing-canceling only in the Quinn app won't stop charges from Apple or Google. Yafee recommends canceling through the platform where you originally subscribed, then taking a screenshot of your confirmation. This protects you legally and gives you evidence if a dispute arises.
What happens after you cancel Quinn
Cancellation takes effect immediately, but your access to Quinn content depends on your subscription term.
Timeline for losing access
Once you submit your cancellation request, Quinn stops charging you right away. However, you retain access to premium content until the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid for a monthly plan and cancel on the 15th of the month, you keep access until the 15th of the next month. If you paid annually, you keep access until your annual renewal date. Quinn will not pro-rate your subscription-you do not receive a refund for unused time, even if you cancel mid-cycle.
Verify the cancellation worked
Check your account settings within 24 hours to confirm your subscription status shows "Cancelled" or "Inactive". If it still shows "Active", repeat the cancellation steps or contact Quinn support directly at [email protected]. Additionally, monitor your credit card or payment method for 30 days after your expected renewal date to ensure Quinn doesn't charge you again.
Delete your account entirely (optional)
Canceling your subscription does not delete your account or personal data. If you want to remove your account from Quinn entirely, you must request account deletion separately. Go to Settings in the Quinn app or on tryquinn.com, find "Delete Account" or "Data Privacy", and follow the prompts. Account deletion is permanent and cannot be undone-you will lose access to any saved bookmarks or progress within stories.
Refund policy and getting your money back
Quinn's refund policy does not offer refunds for unused subscription time after cancellation.
When Quinn will refund you
Quinn will issue a refund only if you cancel within a specific trial period (typically 7 to 14 days, depending on the offer you used when signing up) and have used the service minimally. If you signed up for a trial and canceled before it converted to a paid subscription, no charge appears on your account. If your trial ended and Quinn charged you for the first billing cycle without clear consent, you have grounds to dispute the charge with your bank or the Federal Trade Commission.
Dispute charges with your bank or credit card company
If Quinn charged you after you canceled, or if you cannot cancel through the app, you can dispute the charge with your financial institution. Contact your bank or credit card company and request a chargeback or reversal. Provide:
- The date Quinn charged you.
- The transaction amount.
- Screenshots of your cancellation confirmation or proof you attempted to cancel.
- Copies of any emails from Quinn confirming your cancellation.
Your bank can reverse charges within 60 days of the transaction and does not require Quinn's permission to do so.
Common mistakes when canceling Quinn
Canceling a subscription is straightforward, but small missteps can leave you exposed-here's how to avoid them.
Confusing cancellation with account deletion
Canceling your subscription stops recurring charges but leaves your account active. Your login credentials remain valid, your payment method is still on file, and your account data remains stored. If you want a clean break, you must delete your account separately. At Yafee, we recommend canceling first and waiting 24 hours to confirm charges stop, then deleting your account if you never plan to return.
Not taking a screenshot of your cancellation confirmation
Quinn's in-app confirmation may disappear once you navigate away. Screenshot or save the confirmation message immediately after canceling. Email confirmations sometimes land in spam or take hours to arrive. A screenshot is your fastest proof if Quinn charges you again or if you need to dispute a charge with your bank.
Canceling in the Quinn app when you subscribed via apple or google
If you signed up through Apple App Store or Google Play, canceling only in the Quinn app has no effect on your billing. You must cancel through Apple or Google directly, or the charges continue from those platforms. Check where you originally subscribed, then cancel through that same channel.
Ignoring your first renewal after cancellation
After you cancel, monitor your payment method for 30 days. If Quinn charged you again despite your cancellation, contact your bank immediately to dispute the charge. Do not wait-most banks allow disputes within 60 days of the transaction.
Protecting yourself from re-subscription and unexpected charges
Stopping charges is only half the battle; preventing them from starting again is the other half.
Monitor your credit card statements
Check your bank or credit card statement for 60 days after your expected renewal date. Look for any Quinn charge under the company name "Quinn Inc." or similar variations. If you see a charge, report it to your bank and provide your cancellation confirmation.
Uninstall the Quinn app
Uninstalling the app doesn't affect your subscription status, but it removes the temptation to accidentally resubscribe by tapping a prominent "Subscribe Now" button. You can always reinstall the app later if you change your mind.
Update your payment information with caution
If you update your credit card or payment method while your Quinn account is active, the system may reactivate your subscription automatically. If you must update your payment information for other reasons, cancel Quinn first, wait 48 hours, then update your payment method.

If you cannot cancel through the app or website, contact Quinn support directly or escalate to the Federal Trade Commission if Quinn refuses to cancel.
Quinn customer support
Email Quinn's support team at [email protected] with your request to cancel. Include your account email address, the date you signed up, and the date you attempted to cancel. Quinn typically responds within 1 to 2 business days. Keep a copy of your email for your records.
Escalation to the federal trade commission
If Quinn ignores your cancellation request or continues charging you after you cancel, file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at reportfraud.ftc.gov. The FTC enforces the Restore Online Shoppers Confidence Act and can investigate unauthorized charges and predatory subscription practices. Additionally, contact your state's Attorney General office-each state has a consumer protection division that handles subscription disputes.
Dispute through your bank
If Quinn charges you after cancellation and the company doesn't respond within 7 days, contact your bank or credit card company to dispute the charge. Your bank can issue a chargeback within 60 days and does not need Quinn's permission to reverse the transaction.
