CTLS Parent cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling CTLS Parent 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 CTLS Parent will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from CTLS Parent?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by CTLS Parent directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the CTLS Parent 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 CTLS Parent still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows CTLS Parent 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 CTLS Parent account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the CTLS Parent 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 CTLS Parent right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to CTLS Parent 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.
