How to Cancel Tapon and Get a Refund
Tapon 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 Tapon billing.
Cancel Tapon on iPhone (iOS)
- 1Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- 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 Tapon in the list and tap it. If it is not there, you may have subscribed through the app itself or a different Apple ID.
- 5Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm. You keep access to Tapon until the current billing period ends, then it will not renew.
Cancel Tapon on Android

- 2Tap your profile icon, then Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions.

How to get a refund for Tapon
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 Tapon charge, choose Request a refund, pick a reason and submit.
Open the Play Store, go to your order history, select the Tapon purchase, tap Report a problem and request a refund. Requests within 48 hours are often auto-approved.
What Tapon users report about billing
Users frequently complain about the app's misleading advertising, where promoted books are unavailable in the app. Many also report that the coin system for unlocking chapters is unreliable, often not crediting coins or forcing users to watch excessive ads. Additionally, the pricing is criticized as excessively high, with some users noting that reading a full book costs more than purchasing a physical copy.

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