Cancel Acorn TV wherever you subscribed. If you signed up on acorn.tv, log in, open My Acorn TV, choose Manage Account, and cancel your membership there. If you were billed through Apple, Google Play, Roku, Amazon, Samsung or a cable provider, cancel in that platform's subscription settings instead. Check Account Status to see which applies. Deleting the app does not stop billing.

Menus and labels can change. If the steps below don’t match what you see, use the official help link on this page.

Where to start with Acorn TV

Open official help

Can you cancel online?: yes
Where to start: The Manage Account page under My Acorn TV on the Acorn TV website (acorn.tv), signed in from a computer or mobile browser — or the subscription settings of whichever platform bills you
Apple or Google billed?: Possible
Keeps access until: the end of the billing period you have already paid for
Contract / fees: No minimum term, commitment or early termination fee is documented — Acorn TV bills as a renewing monthly or annual membership until cancelled. The main complication is billing origin rather than any contract: Acorn TV states it does not manage billing details for accounts that originate through third-party platforms, and lists Roku, iTunes, Apple TV, Google Play, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, the Amazon Prime Channel add-on, Samsung Smart TV, and cable providers (including Comcast/Xfinity and TELUS) as separate billing sources that must be cancelled on their own platform. Acorn TV's free trial is documented as first-time customers only, requires credit/debit card details up front, and converts to a paid subscription once the trial runs out unless cancelled beforehand.

Step-by-step cancellation

These steps only appear when the flow was verified against an official provider or platform source.

Cancel a membership bought directly on the Acorn TV website

1
Log in to the Acorn TV website (acorn.tv) on a computer or mobile browser.
2
Select My Acorn TV on the top right of the site.
3
Select Manage Account in the dropdown menu.
4
Check the Account Status section first. Acorn TV states that if your account originated through a third-party it will be noted here (Roku, iTunes etc.) — if you do not see a note, your membership was created through the Acorn TV website and can be cancelled here.
5
From Manage Account, cancel your membership. This same screen is where Acorn TV documents reviewing account status, changing your email or password, and updating billing information.
6
Remember that deleting the Acorn TV app or channel from your device does not cancel the subscription — only completing this cancellation stops the billing.

Check where your Acorn TV membership is billed from before you start

1
Log in to the Acorn TV website (acorn.tv) on a computer or mobile browser.
2
Go to My Acorn TV in the top right and select Manage Account.
3
Open the Account Status section, where your payment method details appear.
4
If your account originated through a third-party, Acorn TV notes it here (for example Roku or iTunes). If there is no such note, the membership was created through the Acorn TV website.
5
If a third-party is named, cancel on that platform instead — Acorn TV states it does not manage billing details for accounts that originate and are billed through third-party platforms.

Cancel an Acorn TV subscription billed by Apple (iTunes / App Store / Apple TV)

1
Confirm on Acorn TV's Manage Account page that Account Status names iTunes or Apple as the origin — Acorn TV cannot cancel this for you.
2
On an iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name at the top, then tap Subscriptions.
3
Select Acorn TV in the list of subscriptions.
4
Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm.
5
Apple applies its own renewal timing rules, so cancel well before the next renewal date shown on the subscription screen.

Cancel an Acorn TV subscription billed by Google Play or Android TV

1
Confirm on Acorn TV's Manage Account page that Account Status names Google Play as the origin.
2
Open the Google Play Store app, or go to play.google.com, signed in with the Google account that pays for the subscription.
3
Open the account menu and select Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
4
Select Acorn TV from the list.
5
Select Cancel subscription and follow the prompts to confirm.

Cancel an Acorn TV channel subscription billed by Roku

1
Confirm on Acorn TV's Manage Account page that Account Status names Roku as the origin — Acorn TV states it does not manage billing for Roku-originated accounts.
2
Sign in to your Roku account at roku.com with the account that owns the channel.
3
Open your subscriptions page and find Acorn TV.
4
Select the option to unsubscribe or cancel the subscription.
5
Confirm the cancellation. Removing the Acorn TV channel from the device on its own does not stop billing.

Cancel an Acorn TV subscription billed by Amazon (Fire TV app or Prime Channel add-on)

1
Work out which Amazon path applies: Acorn TV distinguishes a subscription bought through the Amazon Fire TV app from the Amazon Prime Channel add-on.
2
For a Fire TV app subscription, Acorn TV directs you to manage or update it on Amazon.com — you must be logged in to your Amazon account.
3
Go to Amazon.com, open Your Account, then Memberships & Subscriptions.
4
Find the Acorn TV entry and open its subscription settings.
5
Select the option to cancel the subscription or turn off auto-renewal, then confirm.
6
For a Prime Video Channel add-on, manage it under your Prime Video channel subscriptions on Amazon rather than on acorn.tv.

Cancel an Acorn TV subscription bought through the Samsung Smart TV app

1
On the Samsung Smart TV, go to Settings, then General, then System Manager, then Samsung Account (documented for 2018-2021 models).
2
Select My Account, then Payment Info.
3
On 2019-2021 models select Subscriptions. On 2018 models select Purchase History instead.
4
Move the focus to the Acorn TV subscription you want to cancel.
5
Select the cancel option and confirm.

Cancel an Acorn TV subscription billed through a cable or bundle partner

1
Confirm on Acorn TV's Manage Account page that Account Status names a provider such as Comcast/Xfinity or TELUS.
2
Contact that provider or sign in to your account with them — Acorn TV states you must manage the account through their dedicated platform.
3
Find Acorn TV in your channel, add-on or subscription list with that provider.
4
Remove or cancel the Acorn TV add-on through the provider and get their confirmation.
5
Do not rely on deleting the Acorn TV app, which Acorn TV warns does not stop billing.

Common problems

Only official-source troubleshooting notes are included here.

What happens after you cancel?

Post-cancellation details like access, downgrade behavior, and refund caveats are shown only when the provider documents them.

Acorn TV warns explicitly that deleting the Acorn TV app or channel from your device does not cancel the subscription — you must complete the correct cancellation path or billing continues.
Because Acorn TV does not refund partial billing periods, a cancelled membership is expected to run out at the end of the period you have already paid for rather than stopping the moment you cancel. Acorn TV's Terms of Use do not spell out the post-cancellation access window explicitly, so check the end date shown on your own Account Status page.
If a third-party platform bills you (Apple, Google Play, Roku, Amazon, Samsung or a cable provider), that platform controls when access actually ends and issues any refund — Acorn TV states it does not manage billing details for those accounts.
Cancelling during the free trial before it runs out prevents the first payment. Acorn TV documents the trial as available to first-time customers only, so a returning subscriber will not get another one.
Acorn TV does not document a pause or suspend option; the documented path is to cancel and resubscribe later, and the help center has a separate article on renewing a membership.

Refund notes

Acorn TV's Terms of Use state it does not provide refunds or credits for any partial-billing period, partial subscription periods, or for unwatched content, except where required by law. The Terms describe a statutory 14-day cancellation right with refund for users in the United Kingdom and Austria, and a 7-day right for users in Brazil. If a third-party platform bills you, that platform's own refund policy applies instead.

FAQ

How do I tell whether my Acorn TV subscription is billed by Acorn TV or by a third party?

Log in at acorn.tv, select My Acorn TV in the top right, choose Manage Account, and look at the Account Status section. Acorn TV states that if your account originated through a third-party it will be noted there (Roku, iTunes etc.), and that if you do not see a note, your membership was created through the Acorn TV website. That single check decides whether you cancel on acorn.tv or on the other platform.

Does deleting the Acorn TV app or channel cancel my subscription?

No. Acorn TV puts this warning at the top of its own cancellation guide: deleting the Acorn TV app or channel from your device does not cancel your subscription, and you must follow the correct cancel instructions in order to stop being billed. Removing the app only takes it off that device — the membership keeps renewing until you cancel it through whichever platform bills you.

Will Acorn TV refund the rest of my billing period if I cancel mid-cycle?

No. Acorn TV's Terms of Use state that it does not provide refunds or credits for any partial-billing period, partial subscription periods, or for unwatched content, except where required by law. The Terms do describe statutory cancellation rights with a refund for some regions — 14 days for the United Kingdom and Austria, and 7 days for Brazil. If a third-party platform bills you, that platform's refund policy applies instead.

Can I cancel Acorn TV during the free trial without being charged?

Yes, provided you cancel before the trial ends. Acorn TV documents that the trial requires your credit or debit card details up front and that after the trial runs out your first payment will be charged to that card, so cancelling anytime before the end of the trial period avoids the charge. Acorn TV also notes the trial is for first-time customers only, so returning subscribers are not eligible.

Why is there no cancel option on the Acorn TV website for my account?

Because your membership is billed somewhere else. Acorn TV states that it does not manage certain account details, including billing details and payment method, for accounts that originate and are billed through third-party platforms, and it lists Roku, iTunes, Apple TV, Google Play, Android TV and Amazon Fire TV among them. Check the Account Status section under Manage Account to see which provider is named, then cancel on that provider's platform.
