What is EndNote
Product overview
EndNote is a reference-management software from Clarivate that helps researchers collect, organise, and format bibliographies and citations for academic writing.
It integrates with word processors (e.g., Microsoft Word) and offers cloud-syncing, library management, and citation formatting tools.
Versions and purchase channels
EndNote is sold as a one-time desktop licence through Clarivate and is also available via third-party retailers and app stores in different forms.
Trial accounts and in-app subscriptions may be offered depending on platform and purchase channel.
How to cancel EndNote
Cancel when purchased directly from Clarivate (web)
- Log in to the EndNote account used to purchase.
- Go to account settings or the subscription/purchases section.
- Select cancellation or request a return and follow the on-screen prompts to confirm.
- If auto-charge is enabled or you encounter issues, contact Clarivate support by phone or email for assistance.
Cancel for App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android) purchases
- Subscriptions purchased through the App Store or Google Play must be cancelled through that store, not via the EndNote web portal.
- Open your Apple ID subscriptions (iOS) or Google Play Subscriptions (Android) and cancel the EndNote subscription there.
- Clarivate does not publish a separate, platform-specific cancellation flow for these stores.
What happens when you cancel
Access and feature changes
If you cancel an active subscription, access to premium features typically continues until the end of the paid period.
For one-time licences, cancelling a purchase request or returning the product will affect your licence activation according to Clarivate's return policy.
Data and sync
Your EndNote library data usually remains in your account; however, access to cloud-sync or premium services may be removed after cancellation.
Always export or back up your library before cancelling to avoid accidental data loss.

Documentation checklist
What to gather before contacting support
- Order receipt or invoice (email or screenshot).
- Account email used for purchase and subscription details.
- Purchase date and transaction ID or payment method information.
- Screenshots of subscription status, trial cancellation confirmation, or store receipts.
What to include in a refund or cancellation request
- Clear statement of requested action (cancel, refund, or return).
- Attach proof of purchase and any communication with Clarivate or the app store.

Common mistakes
Assuming the wrong cancellation path
Example: Cancelling through the EndNote web portal when the subscription was purchased via the App Store. This does not stop store billing.
Always check where you originally purchased before attempting cancellation.
Not keeping proof of purchase
Example: Deleting the receipt email after purchase. Without a receipt or transaction ID, refund requests take longer to resolve.
Keep order confirmations, screenshots, and any trial cancellation confirmations for disputes.
