Before you start.
- Look at the receipt before anything else. An email from Apple or Google means that store bills you and controls the cancellation, and the app's own support cannot stop the charge for you.
- Separate the two things VibeShort sells. Its App Store listing sells a Weekly Pass Pro alongside items named One-time Purchase. Its terms describe coins, bonus and weekly, monthly or annual pass pro as separate things you can buy.
- Check the renewal period. VibeShort sells weekly plans, and a weekly plan comes round again in days rather than at the end of a month, so a few days of not noticing is a real charge.
- VibeShort's terms state that the subscription auto-renews 24 hours before the expiry date, so the cancellation has to be in place more than a day before the date shown on the plan.
- If you subscribed without creating an account, the subscription still belongs to the Apple ID or Google account that paid, and that is where to look.
FOLLOW THE RIGHT BILLING ROUTE
Cancel VibeShort, step by step.
Cancel on iPhone or iPad
Apple bills the subscription, so it is cancelled from iOS Settings rather than inside VibeShort. The app can show you the plan, but it cannot end an Apple charge.
- Open the Settings app.
- Tap your name (your Apple Account) at the top of the screen.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- Select VibeShort from the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm.
If VibeShort is not listed, you are signed in with a different Apple ID than the one that paid. The receipt email says which account was charged. If more than one VibeShort entry appears, cancel each one: the store lists every recurring item separately.
Cancel on Android
Google Play bills the subscription, so it is cancelled from the Play Store app.
- Open the Google Play Store app.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right.
- Select Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
- Select VibeShort.
- Tap Cancel subscription and follow the prompts to confirm.
Google states that it cannot cancel a subscription on your behalf: the account holder has to complete this. Cancelling leaves access running to the end of the period already paid for.
Turn off auto-renewal inside VibeShort
VibeShort's terms state that you can cancel the auto-renewal at any time before the subscription renews, and refer you to an About Subscription section in the app for how.
- Open the VibeShort app and find the About Subscription section its terms refer to.
- Use the cancellation option there before the renewal.
- VibeShort states that the subscription auto-renews 24 hours before the expiry date, so act more than a day ahead.
- If Apple or Google billed you, cancel in the store as well: that is the charge that actually renews.
VibeShort states that cancellation takes effect the day after the last day of the current period, at which point the account returns to the non-subscription version.
What happens next?
- Cancelling stops the renewal. Apple and Google both leave the subscription active to the end of the period already paid for, so access usually continues for the rest of that week.
- Coins and unlocked episodes are separate from the membership. Cancelling does not remove coins you have already bought, and it does not refund them.
- VibeShort's terms state that gold coins are spent before bonus coins, and that bonus is automatically expired and liquidated after its expiry date, so an unused bonus balance is the part you lose first.
- Refunds are requested from whoever billed you, and each of them can decline. Cancelling and asking for money back are two separate actions, and cancelling alone refunds nothing.
- Keep the confirmation. In both stores, the subscription shows an expiry date instead of a renewal date once the cancellation has gone through, which is the only reliable proof it worked.
WHEN IT DOES NOT WORK
If you get stuck.
I cancelled the membership but I am still being charged
Check what the new charge is for. VibeShort sells "Weekly Pass Pro" as a recurring item, and "One-time Purchase" as one-off top-ups. A charge after cancelling is usually a second recurring item that was never cancelled, or a coin purchase rather than the membership. Open your store subscription list and confirm every VibeShort entry shows an expiry date rather than a renewal date.
VibeShort is not in my subscriptions list
The list only shows what the signed-in account bought. Find the receipt and check which Apple ID or Google account was charged, then sign in with that one. A subscription bought on an iPhone never appears in Google Play, and the reverse is also true. It is also worth checking the list for the app's other name: store entries sometimes carry the developer's name, Agile Quadrant Media, rather than the app's.
I deleted the app and the charges continued
Removing an app never cancels its subscription. Apple and Google keep billing until the subscription itself is cancelled in the store settings, and you do not need to reinstall the app to do it.
I bought coins and thought that was the subscription
They are different products sold on the same screen. A coin pack is a one-off charge that buys episodes, and the membership is a recurring charge that renews on its own. Buying no more coins does nothing to the membership, so if the money keeps leaving every week, the membership is what is still running.
I cancelled the day it renewed and it charged anyway
VibeShort's terms state that the subscription is auto-renewed 24 hours before the expiry date, so a cancellation on the expiry date itself arrives after the renewal has already been taken. Cancel more than a day before the date shown on the plan.
Still not cancelled?Common reasons a subscription will not cancel How to cancel an app subscription
GOOD TO KNOW
Questions, answered.
How do I cancel my VibeShort subscription?
Cancel it wherever it is billed. On iPhone: Settings, your Apple Account name, Subscriptions, VibeShort, Cancel Subscription. On Android: Play Store, profile icon, Payments & subscriptions, Subscriptions, VibeShort, Cancel subscription.
Does deleting the VibeShort app cancel the subscription?
No. Deleting an app removes it from the device and leaves the subscription running, so the store keeps charging until you cancel it in your subscription settings.
Is cancelling the membership the same as stopping coin charges?
No. VibeShort sells "Weekly Pass Pro" as a plan that renews, and "One-time Purchase" as one-off top-ups. Cancelling the plan stops the renewal and leaves your coin balance alone, and it does not stop you being charged for any further coins you buy.
Will I lose my coins if I cancel?
Cancelling the membership does not take away coins you have already bought: they are a separate purchase. What you lose is the membership benefit at the end of the period already paid for.
Can I get a refund from VibeShort?
Refunds come from whoever took the payment. Apple and Google Play each run its own refund request process and can decline. Cancelling and requesting a refund are separate actions.
Why is VibeShort charging me every week?
Weekly plans are the norm for this kind of app, and VibeShort sells "Weekly Pass Pro". The renewal period is shown next to the price in your store subscription settings, which is the reliable place to check what you are on.
