Cancellation Avast: Easy Method

What is Avast

Overview

Avast is a cybersecurity company that offers antivirus, VPN, and privacy tools on Windows, Mac, Android and iOS. It sells these services via subscriptions with tiered plans and optional add-ons.

How subscriptions work

Subscriptions are typically sold through Avast's website, in-app purchases, Google Play or the Apple App Store. Billing is recurring unless you cancel before renewal.

How to cancel Avast

Cancel on iOS (App Store)

• Open the App Store on your iOS device and tap your profile.
• Go to Subscriptions, select the Avast subscription, then tap "Cancel Subscription" or "Cancel Free Trial".
• Tap "Confirm" and you will receive an email confirmation. For details see Avast mobile unsubscribe (iOS/Android).

Cancel on Android (Google Play)

• Open Google Play with the Google account used to buy Avast.
• Go to Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions, select Avast and tap "Cancel subscription".
• Decline any pause option, then follow prompts to confirm cancellation. See Avast mobile unsubscribe (iOS/Android).

Cancel via Avast Account (website)

• Sign into your Avast Account on the Avast website.
• Go to Manage subscriptions or Order history, click "Unsubscribe" or "Request cancellation" for the relevant subscription.
• Follow on-screen steps or linked support instructions to complete cancellation. See Avast unsubscribe FAQ.

What happens when you cancel

Access after cancellation

After you cancel, you can typically continue using the paid features until the subscription expiry date. Cancellation prevents future renewals but does not always immediately remove access.

Automatic renewals and data

Auto-renewal will stop after cancellation, but you should verify renewal dates in your account or app store.

Avast retains account and license data per its privacy policy; check your Avast account settings if you want data removed.

Will I get a refund?

Standard refund policy

Avast offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for consumer subscriptions purchased through the Avast website, Avast app on Windows or Mac, and Google Play.

Request a refund within 30 days of payment to be eligible for a full refund. See details at Avast refund policy.

Exceptions and processing times

• App Store purchases are excluded from Avast refunds; refunds must be requested via Apple's refund process.
• Purchases through retail stores or third-party resellers (including iTunes/App Store) are excluded; contact the reseller for refunds.

Common mistakes

Attempting the wrong cancellation path

Users often try to cancel via the Avast website when the subscription was purchased through the App Store or Google Play. That purchase must be cancelled via the store.

Missing refund windows and auto-renewals

Waiting past the 30-day refund window (for eligible purchases) can forfeit a refund. Check purchase dates and act promptly.

Also verify the correct account (App Store/Google account/Avast account) before cancelling to avoid cancelling the wrong subscription.
