Subscriptions are increasingly present in our daily lives. What was once an occasional thing, perhaps just for streaming services, now extends to our calendar app, reminders app, and various others. A very valid business model, beware, but which forces us to pay more attention to the subscriptions we pay.
Including to cancel those that we no longer use, free trials that are about to be charged for and other similar situations. Now that the prices are even more flexible, it is a control that avoids unpleasant surprises which, although in many cases a short chat with apple patches
A list with several details to take into account
Checking the subscriptions that we have active in our Apple ID is very simple. we can see a complete list of everything we pay directly on our iPhone and, from there, we can even opt for certain offers. The steps to follow are:
- We open the application Settings on our iPhone or iPad.
- We touch our name at the top of the screen.
- we play in subscriptions.
Arrived here, there are several things that we must look at. The information is divided into two parts, active and inactive subscriptions. The inactive are those whom we have not only stopped paying, but whose benefits, so to speak, are no longer available. And why do we say that? Because We do not necessarily pay for all subscriptions that appear in the section
Active or inactive only refers to whether what comes with the subscription is, as they say, active. To see whether or not we are paying for a specific subscription, we must enter it and see if the button appears unsubscribe. Keep in mind that by canceling it we continue to enjoy the benefits up to what we had paid for, this is exactly the reason why we explained the distinction a few lines ago.
Finally, it’s always a good idea to play in See all packages to check if offers are available which we may have missed. Maybe an annual offer with a few months discount or maybe another monthly modality that can reduce the total subscription somewhat.
At a time when subscriptions are multiplying, it is really interesting to know exactly what you are paying for. Fortunately, Apple really makes it easy for us. Viewing the full list and unsubscribing or changing subscription type are just a few clicks away.
