Common mistakes
Cancelling in the wrong place
A frequent error is attempting to cancel an App Store or Google Play purchase from Runkeeper’s website; platform purchases must be cancelled through the platform where they were bought.
Assuming automatic refunds
Many users expect an automatic refund when cancelling. Refunds are not guaranteed and depend on platform rules and Runkeeper’s billing policies.
