Cancel Speechify: Easy Method
What is Speechify
Overview
Speechify is a text-to-speech service and app that converts written content into spoken audio using a variety of voices and languages.
It offers Premium features such as high-quality voices, offline MP3 export, faster reading speeds and AI tools for summaries and chats.
Main uses
Common uses include listening to articles, scanned documents, PDFs and other text-based materials for study, accessibility or productivity.
The service is available via the web app and mobile apps (iOS and Android), with subscriptions managed either directly or through app stores.
How to cancel Speechify
Cancel via Speechify web (direct subscription)
- Go to the Speechify web app at app.speechify.com.
- Open your account and click "Settings".
- Choose "Cancel Subscription" and follow the prompts to confirm cancellation.
Cancel via app stores (iOS and Android)
- If you subscribed through Apple App Store, cancel through your Apple Account settings under Subscriptions; Speechify cannot cancel App Store subscriptions for you.
- If you subscribed through Google Play, cancel under Subscriptions in your Google Play account settings; Google manages those subscriptions.
What happens when you cancel
Access and billing
After cancellation you retain Premium benefits until the end of your current billing period.
Subscription renewal simply stops at the period end; there is no prorated refund from Speechify for the unused portion.
Account data and content
Your account and any saved content remain accessible according to Speechify's data policies and your current plan permissions.
Review your account settings if you wish to export or remove content before any plan changes take full effect.
Will I get a refund?
Speechify web purchase refund rules
Speechify may issue refunds within 7 days of subscription start in cases of account takeover, fraud or erroneous charges.
For annual subscriptions Speechify requires evidence of unused usage (for example ≤500 HD words) to consider a refund; monthly, quarterly, discounted and bundle purchases are generally non-refundable.
App Store and Google Play purchases
Subscriptions purchased via Apple iTunes or Google Play are handled by those stores; Speechify does not provide refunds for store purchases.
For App Store or Google Play refunds you must request a refund through Apple or Google using their refund processes.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Relevant consumer protections
Under New Zealand law (including the Consumer Guarantees Act) consumers are entitled to remedies where services are not of acceptable quality or are misrepresented.
If Speechify fails to deliver advertised functionality (for example faulty scanning or unreadable output), you may be entitled to a remedy such as a refund or compensation.
Taking action and limitations
While Speechify's internal refund policy is limited to 7 days in many cases, New Zealand consumers may still pursue remedies beyond that period by providing evidence of the service failure.
For purchases through Apple or Google, you should also check the stores' refund policies, as they sometimes provide refunds beyond the vendor's stated timeframe.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise fast and helpful customer support and highlight a large selection of lifelike voices and customization options.
Trustpilot ratings are generally high, reflecting strong satisfaction among many customers.
Negative feedback
Some users report glitches with reading certain formats, scanning failures and issues with uploads or voice fluency for some content.
There are also complaints on forums about trial-to-subscription conversions, cancellation problems and poor refund responsiveness in some cases.
Documentation checklist
What to gather before requesting cancellation or refund
- Account email, subscription start date and plan type (monthly or annual).
- Receipt or payment confirmation (from Speechify, Apple or Google Play).
- Screenshots showing subscription status, billing, error messages or faulty behaviour.
Evidence for disputed charges or quality issues
- Examples of failed scans, unreadable audio or other faults (audio samples or screenshots).
- Any correspondence with Speechify support, including case numbers and agent names if available.
Common mistakes
Canceling the wrong place
Users often try to cancel in the Speechify web app when the subscription was purchased through the App Store or Google Play.
Always check where the charge appears on your bank or card statement before cancelling.
Expecting immediate refunds or loss of access
Some users expect immediate refunds or loss of access on cancellation; Speechify allows access until the billing period ends and generally does not prorate refunds.
If you expect a refund, ensure you follow the correct refund channels (Speechify support for web purchases, or Apple/Google for store purchases).
