What is Filmbox
Product overview
Filmbox is a set of film-scanning and film-emulation products offered under names such as FilmBox (by Photomyne) and Filmbox Pro.
Offerings include mobile scanning apps and desktop film-emulation software sold as subscriptions or perpetual licenses.
Where it appears
Filmbox is available via web accounts (MovieBox / FilmBox+ via partners) and as apps listed on stores such as the Apple App Store.
Pricing and features vary by plan; available public pricing is listed in USD in this guide.
How to cancel Filmbox
Cancel via web / MovieBox (or FilmBox+ via partner)
- Sign in to your MovieBox account where you manage subscriptions.
- Locate the subscription or account settings and choose the cancel option.
- If your subscription is through a partner for FilmBox+, follow that partner's cancellation process.
Cancel via Apple App Store (iOS)
- Open your Apple ID / Subscriptions settings in the App Store or device Settings.
- Find the FilmBox subscription and turn off auto-renewal to cancel future payments.
- Note: disabling auto-renewal cancels future billing but access continues until the paid period ends.
Cancel via Google Play
- No explicit Google Play cancellation instructions were documented in the sources we reviewed.
- If you subscribed via Google Play, check your Google Play account Subscriptions page or Google support for steps.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
Cancellation stops future renewals but generally does not remove access immediately.
You keep access until the end of the paid period you already paid for.
Account and data
Cancelling a subscription does not necessarily delete your account or stored content.
Account deletion may be available separately; for FilmBox+ via partner, follow partner instructions for account removal.
Will I get a refund?
Standard refund policy
The MovieBox continuous subscription agreement states there will be no refund for periods already paid.
This no-refund rule applies unless a refund is required by applicable legislation.
Trial and other exceptions
- Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited if you purchase a subscription (per the App Store listing for FilmBox by Photomyne).
- Statutory consumer rights (see New Zealand section) may entitle you to a remedy or refund in certain cases where the service is faulty or misleading.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Statutory protections
New Zealand consumer law gives buyers remedies when services are faulty, misleading, or do not meet reasonable expectations.
These rights operate in addition to any contractual terms provided by the service.
How this affects refunds and cancellations
- The contractual “no refund” clause does not override statutory consumer rights in New Zealand.
- If the service is not delivered as promised or is defective, you may be entitled to a repair, replacement, or refund under NZ law.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise Filmbox for high-quality film emulation; colorists consider its look very authentic.
Positive commentary highlights the product's film-emulation accuracy compared with alternatives.
Negative feedback
Some iOS users reported that free trials ended earlier than advertised or scans stopped during trial periods.
Reports include complaints about unresponsive support when users sought help with trial or subscription issues.
Documentation checklist
What to gather before you cancel
- Account email or username used to subscribe.
- Order receipt or subscription confirmation showing plan, date, and payment method.
- Screenshots of subscription status in the app or account page (if available).
- If subscribed via a partner, any partner account details and receipts.
What to have when seeking a refund or complaint
- Clear timeline of events (sign-up date, trial start/end, issues encountered).
- Copies of communication with support and any relevant screenshots.
Common mistakes
Assuming cancellation and deletion are the same
Many users expect cancelling a subscription also deletes their account or content; this is not automatic.
If you want your account removed, check account deletion options separately or contact support.
Missing the correct cancellation channel
Users sometimes try to cancel via the app settings instead of the App Store or the partner platform that actually manages billing.
Always confirm where you originally subscribed (App Store, Google Play, MovieBox web, or partner) and cancel there.
