PS4 Second Screen cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling PS4 Second Screen 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 PS4 Second Screen will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from PS4 Second Screen?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by PS4 Second Screen directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the PS4 Second Screen 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 PS4 Second Screen still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows PS4 Second Screen 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 PS4 Second Screen account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the PS4 Second Screen 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 PS4 Second Screen right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to PS4 Second Screen 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.
