Cancellation Sololearn: Easy Method
What is Sololearn
Overview
Sololearn is an online platform and mobile app for learning programming languages through bite-sized lessons, quizzes and community exercises.
It offers free content plus paid Pro tiers that remove ads and add extra features such as unlimited practice and progress tracking.
Who it's for
Sololearn suits beginners and casual learners who want short, interactive lessons and community feedback.
Paid plans are aimed at users who want an ad-free experience, more practice or faster progress tracking.
How to cancel Sololearn
Cancel on iOS (App Store)
- Open the App Store on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your profile icon, choose Subscriptions, find Sololearn and tap Cancel.
- Cancel at least 24 hours before a trial ends; deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.
- Reference: Sololearn cancellation steps (App Store).
Cancel on Android (Google Play)
- Open the Google Play Store app and tap your profile icon.
- Go to Payments & Subscriptions → Subscriptions, select Sololearn and choose Cancel.
- Google handles billing; cancelling stops auto-renewal.
- Reference: Sololearn cancellation steps (Google Play).
Cancel web / direct purchases
- SoloLearn does not provide an in-app cancel button for web/direct subscriptions.
- Email support at [email protected] to request cancellation for web-purchased subscriptions.
- Reference: Web / support cancellation guidance.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
After cancelling, you retain access to paid features until the end of the current billing or trial period.
For example, cancelling a monthly plan stops future charges but keeps access through the paid month.
Auto-renewal and billing
Auto-renewal is stopped when you cancel; you will not be billed again after the current period ends.
If you subscribed through Apple or Google, those platforms manage future billing and cancellations.
Account and data
Cancellation normally affects billing only and does not delete your Sololearn account or learning data.
If you want account deletion, contact support and request data removal separately.
Will I get a refund?
Official Sololearn policy
Sololearn’s stated policy is that they "do not refund or prorate unused portions of a subscription."
Exceptions may be reviewed case-by-case but are not guaranteed.
If you purchased via Apple or Google
- Requests for refunds should be made through Apple Support or Google Play support because those platforms handle the payment.
- Sololearn may redirect or advise you to contact the store that processed your payment.
- Reference: Refund guidance.
Practical notes and reported issues
Users report mixed experiences: some were charged despite a advertised 14-day trial and had difficulty obtaining refunds.
Persistence and documentation improved outcomes in some reports, but results vary by case.
Sololearn plans and pricing

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Key legal protections
Under South African law (for example the Consumer Protection Act), consumers have rights to fair, honest and transparent terms.
Blanket "no-refund" policies cannot override statutory protections where services are defective or misrepresented.
How to assert your rights
- Keep receipts, screenshots, trial terms and any correspondence about charges.
- If you believe a trial was misrepresented or a charge was incorrect, lodge a complaint with the National Consumer Commission or seek dispute resolution.
Practical steps
Start by contacting Sololearn support and the payment platform (Apple/Google) and escalate if unresolved.
Having clear documentation improves the chance of a favourable outcome with regulators or dispute processes.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise Sololearn’s friendly interface, bite-sized lessons and helpful community for learning basics effectively.
Support has occasionally been praised for helpful responses and for preserving progress such as streaks.
Negative feedback
Common complaints include unexpected charges, trial-related billing issues and mixed refund experiences.
Some users find intermediate content shallow, see confusing tiering (Pro vs Max), or report occasional UI bugs and intrusive ads.
Sources and reviews
For user reviews and recurring themes see community feedback on review sites.
Example: Sololearn reviews on Trustpilot.
Documentation checklist
What to save before you cancel
- Purchase receipts and billing statements (credit card, Apple/Google receipts).
- Screenshots of trial offers, subscription terms and cancellation pages.
- Email correspondence with Sololearn support and any support ticket numbers.
What to prepare for disputes
- Dates and timestamps of charges and cancellation attempts.
- Device/account details used for the subscription (Apple ID, Google account or Sololearn account email).
Common mistakes
Assuming deleting the app cancels the subscription
Deleting the Sololearn app does not cancel App Store or Google Play subscriptions.
You must cancel via the store subscription management to stop future billing.
Missing trial cut-off times
Not cancelling at least 24 hours before the trial ends can result in automatic billing for the first period.
Set a reminder or cancel early to avoid accidental charges.
Contacting the wrong support channel
Contacting Sololearn support when the subscription was billed through Apple/Google may lead to a referral back to the store.
If billed through Apple or Google, also open a refund request with the store that processed the payment.
