- Google’s subscription and refund policies apply to purchases made through Google Play.

What happens when you cancel
Access and features
After cancellation you typically keep access until the end of your paid billing period. Features tied to an active subscription (editing, AI assistant, OCR) may be disabled at expiry.
Renewal and billing
Auto-renewal stops for the cancelled subscription at period end if cancellation is processed. For App Store/Google Play, renewal and billing follow those stores’ systems, not Foxit directly.

Documentation checklist
Before contacting support
- Have your purchase receipt, order number and account email ready.
- Note the purchase date, billing method (App Store/Google/credit card/reseller) and subscription ID if available.

Common mistakes
Cancellation mistakes
Example: Trying to cancel an iOS subscription inside the Foxit app instead of in Apple ID settings can leave the subscription active. Always cancel in the store that processed the payment.
Refund request mistakes
Example: Requesting a refund after the store’s or Foxit’s allowable window (e.g. more than 14 days for many direct annual purchases) reduces chances of success. Check timelines before requesting refunds.
