How to cancel Roon

Cancel a subscription purchased via the App Store (Apple)

If you subscribed through Apple, cancel via your Apple ID subscription management in the App Store or device settings.

• Open the App Store or Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
• Find Roon and choose Cancel Subscription to stop future billing.

Cancel a subscription purchased via Google Play or Roon web

For Google Play subscriptions use Google Play's subscriptions screen. For web purchases, use your Roon account management.

• Google Play: Open Play Store → Menu → Subscriptions → Roon → Cancel.
• Web: Sign in to your Roon account where you manage billing/subscription and cancel there.

What happens when you cancel

Access after cancellation

When you cancel a subscription, you normally keep access until the end of the current paid billing period or until the trial ends.

Your local music files and any device-side data remain on your equipment, but subscription-only features will be disabled after access ends.

Your consumer rights in South Africa

Possible cooling-off rights

South African consumer law (for example under electronic commerce legislation) can provide a short cooling-off period for electronic services in some circumstances.

This may allow cancellation without reason within a limited number of days, but applicability depends on how and where the purchase was made.

Roon's stated policy vs local rights

Roon's published policies do not acknowledge South African statutory rights and explicitly state no refunds for subscriptions.

If you believe local consumer law gives you additional rights, consider contacting local consumer protection authorities or seeking legal advice. See local subscription terms discussion: mysubscriptions.co.za.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Some users praise Roon's sound quality, interface and metadata, and others report buying lifetime licences after using the 14-day trial.

See user reviews for examples: Roon on Trustpilot.

Common criticisms

Many reviews call out slow or limited customer support and reliance on community forums rather than direct staff assistance.

Users also report technical issues such as high resource usage, syncing problems and occasional instability.

Documentation checklist

Before you contact Roon or your app store

• Order confirmation or receipt showing purchase date and transaction ID.
• Account email used for the purchase and screenshots of subscription status.
• Device details, Roon version and any error messages if reporting technical problems.

For Roon Store hardware returns

• Proof of purchase, serial numbers and original packaging photos (showing unused condition).
• RMA number obtained from the Roon Store returns process before shipping.

Common mistakes

Expecting subscription refunds after purchase

Many users assume they can get a refund after a paid subscription begins. Roon's policy states subscriptions and renewals are non-refundable.

Returning hardware without RMA or in used condition

Sending hardware back without an RMA, or returning items that are used or missing packaging, can result in denied refunds.

Comparative recap
