Cancellation service #1 in Canada
Photoroom is a photo-editing app and web service that automates background removal and provides tools for simple retouching, templates, and batch exports. It offers free basic features and paid subscriptions or in‑app purchases to unlock Pro and Business capabilities across mobile apps (Apple App Store and Google Play) and the Photoroom web app.
When you cancel, your subscription will stop renewing at the end of the current paid period; you typically retain Pro/Business access until that period expires. Photoroom generally does not provide prorated credits for the unused portion of a billing cycle unless explicitly stated. Your account data and uploaded images may remain under Photoroom’s retention policies - export any content you need before access ends. If you subscribed via Apple or Google, those stores control the cancellation and billing records.
Photoroom’s stated refund policy allows Pro subscription refund requests within 7 days of the last payment when requested through Photoroom’s process, but its terms also include language that generally disclaims credits, refunds, or prorated billing. If you bought through the Apple App Store or Google Play, refunds are handled by Apple or Google respectively - you can initiate a request through the Photoroom app but Apple/Google control approval and timing. Web App refunds (app.photoroom.com) may be processed by Photoroom and are usually handled within about two weeks; Photoroom advises waiting at least 10 days before following up. See Photoroom’s refund instructions: Request a refund and their terms: Terms & Conditions.

Canadian consumer protection law can offer stronger rights than vendor policies. Many provinces provide a cooling-off or right-to-cancel period for online contracts (commonly around 14 days), so Photoroom’s 7‑day refund window may not satisfy provincial rules everywhere. Removing features or imposing new limits mid‑subscription could be considered an unfair practice under Canadian law. If you cannot cancel or obtain a refund through Photoroom, you can escalate to your payment provider (Apple, Google, or your credit card issuer) and consider filing a complaint with the applicable provincial consumer affairs office or the Competition Bureau. Rights and enforcement vary by province, so check your provincial consumer protection authority for exact remedies and timelines.
User reviews are mixed but have trended negative in recent years. Some long‑term users report satisfactory earlier experiences, while many recent reviews report unexpected or continuing charges after cancelling, difficulty cancelling subscriptions (or inability to cancel), downgraded or removed features mid‑subscription, degraded app performance, and slow or unhelpful customer support. Trustpilot scores for Photoroom (Canada) show a majority of 1‑star reviews as of early 2026, reflecting these common complaints. Online forums such as Reddit also contain reports of sign‑in and cancellation problems and frustrations with automated support channels.
Customers commonly cancel the wrong place - for example, uninstalling the app but not cancelling the App Store or Play Store subscription, or cancelling on the website when the subscription was bought through Apple or Google. Another frequent error is assuming a single in‑app “cancel” tap was processed without saving confirmation or a cancellation email. Waiting too long to request a refund or not saving transaction IDs and receipts also makes disputes harder to resolve. Finally, relying solely on automated chatbots without capturing timestamps or ticket numbers reduces proof when escalating.
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Apple App Store | Refunds handled by Apple; can request via Photoroom app but Apple controls approval and timing (up to ~30 days). | Medium - High (Apple controls process; users often must use Apple support). |
| Google Play Store | Refunds handled by Google; can initiate via Photoroom app but disbursement depends on Google (around ~2 weeks). | Medium - High (Google controls process; use Play Store support). |
| Web App (app.photoroom.com) | Photoroom can process refunds via Your billing → Request a refund; usually processed within ~2 weeks (wait ~10 days before following up). | Low - Medium (direct with Photoroom, but terms limit refunds). |
After you cancel, verify that the subscription shows as cancelled in the App Store, Play Store, or Photoroom billing page and keep confirmation screenshots or emails. Monitor your next billing statements to confirm no further charges. If you need a refund, follow the appropriate refund request flow: use the Photoroom web billing page for web purchases, use Apple/Google support for store purchases, and allow the stated processing windows before escalating. For Photoroom cancellation guidance see Cancel your subscription and for refunds see Request a refund. If issues remain unresolved, contact your payment provider or your provincial consumer protection office.
