How to Cancel WAVES and Get a Refund

WAVES 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 WAVES billing.

Cancel WAVES on iPhone (iOS)

  1. 1Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. 2Tap your name at the top of the screen to open your Apple ID.
  3. 3Tap Subscriptions to see every app that bills you through Apple.
  4. 4Find WAVES in the list and tap it. If it is not there, you may have subscribed through the app itself or a different Apple ID.
  5. 5Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm. You keep access to WAVES until the current billing period ends, then it will not renew.

Cancel WAVES on Android

  1. 1Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.

  3. 3Select WAVES from your list of subscriptions.

Android (Google)

Open the Play Store, go to your order history, select the WAVES purchase, tap Report a problem and request a refund. Requests within 48 hours are often auto-approved.

WAVES cancellation: frequently asked questions

Does canceling WAVES 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 WAVES will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.

Can I get a refund from WAVES?

Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by WAVES directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the WAVES 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 WAVES still charging me after I canceled?

The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows WAVES 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 Google Play subscription settings to be sure.

How do I delete my WAVES account?

Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the WAVES app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the Google Play and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.

Will I lose access to WAVES right after I cancel?

No. You keep full access to WAVES 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.
