Troubleshooting
- Make sure you're signed in to the correct Grammarly account
- Navigate to the Subscription page and scroll down to the bottom
- Look for "Cancel Subscription" at the bottom of the page
- If you subscribed through iOS or Android, you must cancel through that platform
- Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again
If you subscribed through Apple or Google Play, you'll need to cancel through that platform's subscription management system, not through Grammarly's website.
Grammarly doesn't offer a pause option. However, you can cancel and reactivate anytime without losing your account or writing history.
- Check your email for the cancellation confirmation
- Verify the cancellation date matches the end of your billing period
- Make sure you canceled through the correct platform (web, iOS, or Android)
- Contact Grammarly Support if charges continue after the cancellation date
Your writing history and account will remain accessible after cancellation. However, you'll only have access to basic grammar checking (Free tier) instead of Premium features like style suggestions and plagiarism detection.
After your subscription expires, you'll lose access to:
- Advanced grammar checks
- Style suggestions
- Plagiarism detection
- Vocabulary enhancement
- Tone detection
You'll still have basic grammar checking available in the Free tier.
Additional Information
- Reactivation: You can reactivate Grammarly anytime by visiting account.grammarly.com/subscription or through your platform's store
- Account: Your account and writing history remain accessible after cancellation
- Free Tier: After cancellation, you'll have basic grammar checking only
- Mobile Subscriptions: If you subscribed through iOS or Android, you must cancel through that platform
- Writing History: Your writing history is saved and remains accessible
Conclusion
You've successfully canceled your Grammarly subscription! You'll continue to have access to Premium features until the end of your current billing period. After that, you'll be downgraded to Free tier with basic grammar checking only.
Your account and writing history are all saved, so you can reactivate anytime. If you need help, Grammarly Support is available through the Help Center.
