Why is Amazon Kindle: Reading App still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows Amazon Kindle: Reading App 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.

How do I delete my Amazon Kindle: Reading App account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the Amazon Kindle: Reading App app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the App Store and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
