how to cancel grammarly free trial

To cancel your Grammarly free trial, you need to cancel the underlying subscription before the trial ends so it doesn’t auto‑renew into a paid plan.

How to Cancel Grammarly Free Trial

Quick Scoop

If you’re on a Grammarly Premium free trial and don’t want to be charged, you must cancel the subscription from your account’s Subscription page (or from Apple/Google if you subscribed in their stores) before the trial period ends.

Step‑by‑Step: Web Browser (Most Common)

This is the usual path if you started the free trial directly on Grammarly’s website.

  1. Go to grammarly.com and sign in to the account that has the free trial.
  1. Click your profile icon (usually bottom‑left on desktop) and choose Subscription from the dashboard.
  1. On the Subscription page, scroll to the bottom until you see Cancel Subscription.
  1. Click Cancel Subscription. A small window or page step will appear.
  2. Click Continue when asked to confirm that you want to cancel.
  1. Choose a reason for cancelling (you can usually pick something quick like “Too expensive” or “No longer needed”), then click Cancel Subscription again to complete.

After this:

  • Your free trial will stay active until its end date, but you won’t be charged when it ends.
  • Your account will automatically downgrade to Grammarly Free and you keep access to your existing documents and data.

Cancel on Phone (Still Using Grammarly Website)

Even on mobile, Grammarly directs you to manage trials via the account site.

  • Open a browser on your phone and go to account.grammarly.com.
  • Sign in and open Subscription from the account options.
  • Scroll down and tap Cancel Subscription , then Continue , choose a reason, and confirm.

This does the same thing as cancelling on desktop: stops auto‑renewal when the trial ends.

If You Subscribed via Apple (iOS)

If you started your Grammarly free trial through an Apple in‑app purchase (App Store), Apple manages the subscription, not Grammarly directly.

Do this on your iPhone or iPad:

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap your Apple ID name at the top.
  3. Tap Subscriptions.
  4. Find and select Grammarly.
  5. Tap Cancel Subscription (or Cancel Free Trial) and confirm.

Apple will then show your subscription as expiring at the end of the current period; you won’t be charged after that.

If You Subscribed via Google Play (Android)

If your Grammarly trial came from Google Play, cancellation goes through Play as well.

  1. Open the Google Play Store app.
  2. Tap your profile icon (top‑right).
  3. Tap Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions.
  4. Select Grammarly from the list.
  5. Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm.

Again, this stops auto‑renewal after the trial ends.

What Happens After You Cancel the Free Trial

  • You keep premium features until the exact end of the trial period (you don’t lose access immediately).
  • After the trial ends, your account automatically switches to Grammarly Free with no additional charges.
  • Your documents, history, and data remain in your account, just under the free tier.

Many users confirm in forums that cancelling during the trial window is fully allowed and that any earlier interface glitches around the “Cancel” button were resolved.

Extra Tips So You Don’t Get Charged

  • Check your next charge date on the Subscription page and cancel at least 24 hours before to be safe, especially for App Store / Play Store trials.
  • After cancelling, look for a confirmation email or a “Your subscription will expire on…” message on the subscription screen as proof.
  • If you don’t see a cancel button on Grammarly’s website, double‑check if the trial might be tied to Apple or Google instead.

Mini FAQ

Q: Will cancelling my Grammarly free trial delete my documents?
No. Your account simply downgrades to the free plan and your documents remain accessible.

Q: Can I cancel immediately after starting the trial?
Yes. You can cancel any time during the free trial; you’ll keep premium access until the trial end date but won’t be billed.

Q: I clicked cancel—how do I know it worked?
You should see that your plan is set to end on a specific date, and in many cases you’ll receive an email confirmation from Grammarly or the app store.
