Cancel Fitbit Premium using your iPhone, Android, computer, or the web

If you signed up for Fitbit’s paid subscription, called Fitbit Premium, and decided that you aren’t using it enough, canceling it can be a bit confusing! The rule of thumb is to cancel your subscription from the same place you first signed up.

So if you signed up using the app on your iPhone, iPad, or Android mobile device, use the app to cancel it. And if you signed up using your computer or using the web, cancel it via that method.

One important note: Fitbit does not issue ANY refunds for its premium subscription. So if you forget to cancel before it auto-renews, you will not get your money back. 

Once you understand Fitbit’s rules for canceling Fitbit Premium, it’s a pretty straightforward process. So let’s take a look!

We highly recommend that you cancel ANY Fitbit subscription at least 24 hours before it renews and charges your payment method!

In a hurry?

If time is short and you don’t need a thorough step-by-step, follow these quick instructions to cancel your Fitbit paid subscriptions!

1. Cancel the subscription directly in the Fitbit app.
   1. Open the Fitbit app, and tap the Today tab > your profile picture. Tap Account Settings > Manage Subscriptions > your Fitbit Premium subscription > Cancel Subscription.

Not seeing the cancel subscription button or option?

If you don’t see a button or option to cancel your Fitbit premium subscription, try canceling your subscription via a different method.

For example, if you tried the steps to cancel using the website, try canceling it via Google Play, the Apple App Store, or under your Apple ID settings.

If you tried all the methods and never saw an option to cancel, it’s possible you previously canceled the subscription. 

Still can’t cancel your Fitbit Premium subscription? Review your email

If you are still unable to cancel your Fitbit subscription, it’s a good idea to look through your email accounts for an email from Fitbit around the time you originally signed up for Fitbit Premium. This includes folks signing up for FitBit’s free trials!

Check the email account you use for Fitbit and search for an email from Fitbit, [email protected], or a welcome or sign-up email from Fitbit.

Inside that email, look for a link to your Fitbit billing account, an invitation link to create an account on Fitbit’s billing portal website, or a link to manage or review your subscription.

Either check your account or, if needed, create a new account and then see if the option to cancel your Fitbit subscription(s) appears.

Want to change from a monthly plan to an annual plan for Fitbit premium?

If you enjoy your Fitbit subscription benefits but also want to get the cost savings of subscribing to an annual plan instead of a monthly plan, it’s not a simple toggle. It seems that you need first to cancel the monthly plan and then later opt-in for the annual plan.

What we discovered is that you need to cancel the monthly plan and then wait for the plan to expire. Once expired, you can then (and only then) subscribe to the annual plan.
