How to Cancel Google アシスタント and Get a Refund
Google アシスタント subscriptions are billed through Apple or Google, not inside the app, so you cancel them in your store settings. Below are the steps for both iPhone and Android, how to request a refund, and what users report about Google アシスタント billing.

- 2Tap your name at the top of the screen to open your Apple ID.
- 3Tap Subscriptions to see every app that bills you through Apple.
- 4Find Google アシスタント in the list and tap it. If it is not there, you may have subscribed through the app itself or a different Apple ID.

How to get a refund for Google アシスタント
Canceling stops future renewals but does not refund a charge you already paid. Request the refund from the store separately.
Go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in with your Apple ID, find the Google アシスタント charge, choose Request a refund, pick a reason and submit.
Open the Play Store, go to your order history, select the Google アシスタント purchase, tap Report a problem and request a refund. Requests within 48 hours are often auto-approved.
What Google アシスタント users report about billing
Users frequently complain about the app crashing or force-closing, especially on iOS and when connected to TVs. Many are frustrated with the inability to change the app's language independently of their device's system language, particularly for Thai and Vietnamese. Other common issues include broken features like song identification by humming, forced prompts to download Google Gemini, and previously working smart home commands now failing.

Google アシスタント cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling Google アシスタント stop the charges immediately?
No. Canceling stops future renewals but you keep access until the end of the billing period you already paid for. After that date Google アシスタント will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from Google アシスタント?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by Google アシスタント directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the Google アシスタント charge and choose Request a refund. On Android, open the Play Store order history, select the purchase and tap Report a problem. Requests made within 48 hours are often approved automatically.
Why is Google アシスタント still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows Google アシスタント as Expired), you have a second subscription under a different Apple ID or Google account, or you canceled inside the app but not in the store where billing actually lives. Cancel it in the App Store subscription settings to be sure.
How do I delete my Google アシスタント account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the Google アシスタント app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the App Store and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
Will I lose access to Google アシスタント right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to Google アシスタント until the paid period ends, so there is no benefit to waiting. Cancel as soon as you decide, and enjoy the remaining days you already paid for.
