How to Cancel Furbo Subscription Guide
Managing recurring charges for pet monitoring cameras can become confusing when automated renewals approach. If you are trying to figure out how to cancel Furbo subscription plans before your next billing cycle, the first challenge is figuring out who actually bills you. Furbo Dog Nanny and Furbo Care subscriptions are commonly processed through Apple, Google Play, or directly through Furbo's online payment system.
Cancellation steps vary depending on your billing provider, account registration method, app version, country, and whether your camera was purchased as part of a bundled hardware plan. Taking the wrong step-such as simply unplugging your camera or removing the app from your phone-will not stop recurring charges.
The most reliable way to cancel a Furbo subscription is to identify the platform that bills you and complete the cancellation through that specific provider's subscription management dashboard. For Apple-billed plans, cancel through Apple Subscriptions in your iOS Settings. For Android-billed plans, cancel inside Google Play Subscriptions. For subscriptions billed directly by Furbo, log into the account page used during signup; if no self-service cancellation option appears, request cancellation through the official Furbo Help Center. Unsubscribing must always happen before deleting your account or uninstalling the app.
Cancellation Snapshot: Quick Answer
You must cancel your Furbo subscription directly through the service that processes your billing. App Store and Google Play subscriptions can be canceled immediately in your device settings, while direct Furbo billing requires using your web account portal or contacting support.
Official Source Verification
Cancellation steps can change by platform, country, account type, app version, billing provider, or subscription plan. CancelGuideHQ checks the latest available official source before publishing each guide.
How We Check This Cancellation Process
CancelGuideHQ references verified documentation from platform providers and official company customer support resources. When reviewing smart pet camera subscriptions, we prioritize confirmed steps over third-party assumptions.
Because smart hardware services often combine mobile applications, web-based checkout portals, and third-party app stores, we test and separate confirmed platform mechanics from unclear internal account policies. The exact management interface available to you depends on whether you enrolled through an in-app purchase or via an online checkout promotional offer. Always use your original purchase receipt as your definitive proof of billing.
Before You Cancel
Gathering key account details before beginning the cancellation process prevents duplicate billing, unexpected renewal charges, and administrative delays.
- Identify the actual billing provider. Look at your bank or credit card statement to verify whether the charge comes from "Apple.com/bill", "Google Play", or directly from Furbo / Tomofun.
- Check your next scheduled renewal date. The safest option is to cancel before your next renewal date to prevent another billing cycle from charging automatically.
- Review hardware bundle terms. If you purchased a discounted Furbo camera bundled with a mandatory 3-month or 1-year Furbo Care subscription, review your original agreement to verify if early termination conditions apply.
- Confirm the email tied to your Furbo camera. Note the exact login email shown inside your Furbo mobile app settings so you reference the correct profile.
- Download important recorded video clips. Once cloud recording access ends, stored cloud event clips may no longer be available for download.
- Keep payment card details secure. Never send full payment card numbers or security codes through unencrypted live chat or contact form messages.
Official Cancellation Options
| Method | Best for | Where to start | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apple Subscriptions | Users billed via iPhone or iPad in-app purchase | iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions | Immediate cancellation confirmation provided directly by Apple. |
| Google Play Subscriptions | Users billed through Google Play on Android | Google Play Store → Profile → Payments & subscriptions | Self-service cancellation stops future Google Play recurring charges. |
| Furbo Direct Web Account | Users who signed up on the Furbo website | Web browser → Furbo account portal used at checkout | The official source does not clearly state uniform self-service steps for all web accounts; support contact may be required. |
| Official Customer Support | Users with direct billing who lack an online cancel button | Furbo Help Center → Live chat or ticket submission | Required if account dashboard lacks an automated cancellation control. |
How to Cancel Furbo Online
How you cancel subscription features online depends entirely on whether your recurring charge is managed by a third-party app store or directly through Furbo's billing servers.
If you signed up on Furbo's website:
- Open a web browser on your computer or mobile device.
- Navigate to the account login page provided when you set up your camera or subscription.
- Sign in using the email address and password associated with your Furbo account.
- Locate your subscription, billing, or "Furbo Care / Dog Nanny" management section.
- Select the cancellation option and follow the on-screen prompts to confirm.
- Check your email for a formal cancellation receipt or save a screenshot of the confirmation page.
The official source does not clearly state whether every direct-billing account tier features an automated self-service cancel button. If your web account shows your active plan but lacks a visible cancel link, submit a cancellation request through the Furbo Help Center before your renewal date.
How to Cancel Furbo in the App
Many users open the Furbo mobile app looking for an immediate cancellation button. However, the official source does not clearly state whether active subscriptions can be cancelled entirely within the mobile app interface itself.
In most cases, smart home and hardware apps route subscription management back to the operating system's native store (Apple or Google) or instruct users to visit an external web browser.
Do not rely on simply clearing the app cache, signing out, or unplugging your Furbo device. Removing the mobile application from your phone does not cancel your membership with your billing provider. If you cannot find a direct subscription cancellation toggle inside the Furbo app settings, verify whether your subscription is listed in your Apple or Google account.
How to Cancel Furbo on iPhone
If your Furbo subscription was purchased inside the iOS app, it is billed through Apple. You must cancel through Apple Subscriptions rather than through Furbo support.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your name / Apple ID banner at the very top of the screen.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- Scroll through your list of active memberships and tap Furbo (or Furbo Dog Nanny).
- Tap Cancel Subscription (or Cancel Free Trial).
- Tap Confirm when prompted.
Apple provides full guidance on their subscription cancellation page. After completing these steps, the subscription should display an expiration date rather than a renewal date. If Furbo is not listed under your Apple ID, your subscription was likely billed through another Apple ID or billed directly by Furbo.
How to Cancel Furbo on Android
If you enrolled in your subscription through the Android version of the Furbo app, your recurring billing is managed by Google Play.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the upper-right corner.
- Select Payments & subscriptions, then tap Subscriptions.
- Locate and select Furbo from the list of active services.
- Tap Cancel subscription at the bottom of the screen.
- Select a reason for canceling if prompted, then tap Continue to confirm.
Google outlines this management process on their Google Play cancellation page. Google Play will update the subscription status to show the exact date your access will end without charging you again.
Other Ways to Cancel
If your subscription was not billed through Apple or Google Play, examine your purchase invoice to determine how payment was configured.
Direct Support Ticket or Live Chat
When your subscription is billed directly to your debit or credit card and no automated online cancellation link appears in your web dashboard, you must reach out directly to customer service:
- Visit the Furbo Help Center.
- Open the live chat widget or submit a help ticket requesting the cancellation of your recurring subscription.
- Provide your registered account email, billing address, and plan name.
- Request written confirmation that your automatic renewal has been removed.
Third-Party Billing Providers (PayPal, Amazon)
No Furbo-specific cancellation steps for Amazon, Roku, or carrier billing were confirmed in official help documentation. However, if your initial purchase or renewal was authorized through PayPal, you can also review your active pre-approved payment agreements inside your PayPal account settings to ensure no future automated debits can be pulled.
Do not use a bank dispute or chargeback as a routine method to stop billing. Filing an unauthorized chargeback without attempting cancellation can lead to account suspension or collection disputes if you agreed to a fixed-term contract. Always attempt official cancellation first.
Refunds, Billing, and Renewal Timing
Understanding how recurring billing schedules operate will help you avoid surprise charges.
- Renewal Timing: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle (monthly, annually, or promotional 3-month periods). The safest option is to cancel before your next renewal date.
- Refund Eligibility: The official source does not guarantee prorated refunds for mid-cycle cancellations. Generally, subscription fees are non-refundable once processed. Do not assume cancellation automatically triggers a refund.
- Apple & Google Play Refund Requests: If you were charged by Apple or Google Play due to an accidental renewal, Furbo cannot issue a refund directly. You must submit a refund claim directly to Apple via their problem reporting site or through Google Play's purchase history portal.
- Direct Web Charge Disputes: If you were billed directly by Furbo immediately after attempting to cancel, contact Furbo customer service through their help center with your transaction details to inquire about refund exceptions.
- Access Period: For Apple- and Google-billed plans, access typically continues through the end of the current pre-paid billing cycle. The exact access cutoff for direct-billed Furbo cancellations was not confirmed in available official sources.
Account Deletion vs Subscription Cancellation
Deleting your account and canceling your subscription are completely separate processes. Conflating them can result in ongoing charges for an account you can no longer log into.
- Deleting the App: Removing the Furbo app from your smartphone only deletes the local software files. It does not notify your billing provider and does not stop recurring charges.
- Deleting the Furbo Account: The effect of requesting Furbo account deletion on active billing is not clearly stated by the official source. If you delete your Furbo account while an active subscription exists through Apple or Google Play, the app store may continue billing you because it operates on a separate authorization system.
- The Safe Order of Operations:
- Complete cancellation through your specific billing provider (Apple, Google Play, or Furbo web).
- Save your official cancellation receipt or status screenshot.
- Verify that your subscription status reflects that it will expire without renewing.
- Only after billing is stopped should you proceed with deleting your account or camera profile if you no longer intend to use the service.
What Happens After You Cancel
Before discontinuing your subscription, evaluate how your smart camera behaves without a paid tier.
- Cloud Recording: Features tied to Furbo Dog Nanny (such as cloud-recorded video event clips, automated highlight videos, and 24-hour video history) typically stop operating once your paid period concludes.
- Smart Alerts: Advanced alerts-such as continuous barking alerts, home emergency alerts (smoke or carbon monoxide alarms), dog activity tracking, and "dog selfie" notifications-are generally premium subscription features that deactivate after cancellation.
- Core Hardware Functionality: In basic operation, canceling a cloud subscription does not "brick" or destroy your physical camera. Standard live video streaming, two-way audio communication, and real-time treat tossing typically continue to function without a paid subscription, though specific feature allocations can vary by camera model and firmware release.
- Reactivation: If you decide to resume service later, you can usually resubscribe through your mobile app or Furbo account using your existing camera hardware.

Troubleshooting Cancellation Problems
If you encounter issues while trying to stop recurring charges, check these common points of failure.
Furbo is missing from Apple or Google Play subscriptions
If Furbo does not appear in your mobile subscription list, your plan was not billed through that platform. Check other Apple IDs or Google accounts you may own. If it is not there, check your credit card or bank statement: if the descriptor says "Furbo" or "Tomofun" instead of Apple or Google, you are billed directly and must cancel through Furbo's web portal or support.
There is no cancel button in your online Furbo account
Direct web portals occasionally experience interface updates or require customer service intervention for certain promotional or hardware-bundled plans. Submit a cancellation ticket via the official Help Center including your account email and invoice details, and request written proof of cancellation.
You were charged after completing cancellation
First, verify which company processed the charge. If the charge matches your previous cancellation, check the date: charges processed prior to cancellation will not be retroactively refunded automatically. If the charge occurred after confirmation, contact that specific billing provider with your dated cancellation receipt.
You uninstalled the app but recurring charges continued
Uninstalling or deleting an application does not end a subscription contract. Open your device's subscription menu (Apple or Google Play) or log into your web billing provider to process the cancellation manually.
Category-Specific Cancellation Tips
Smart pet devices combine physical electronics with recurring cloud services. Keep these industry-specific factors in mind:
- Hardware Bundles and Commitments: If you purchased your device under an introductory hardware discount (such as getting a camera for a reduced price with an agreement to maintain service for a specific number of months), early cancellation terms may apply. Check your original checkout agreement before canceling to see if unfulfilled term fees apply.
- Pet Care Subscription Overlaps: If you are auditing monthly pet expenses, cancellation processes for physical pet products differ significantly from connected home devices. For example, if you also manage recurring pet delivery boxes or food subscriptions, see our dedicated guides on how to cancel a Bark subscription, how to cancel Ollie, and how to cancel Bullymake to properly manage physical shipment cutoffs.
- Second-Hand Resale: If you plan to sell or gift your Furbo camera after canceling, make sure to remove the camera from your Furbo mobile app profile first. Simply canceling the subscription does not unpair the camera from your account email.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cancel a Furbo subscription online?

If you subscribed directly on Furbo's website, log into your web account to cancel or contact the official Furbo Help Center if no cancellation toggle appears.
Can I cancel my Furbo subscription in the app?
The official source does not clearly state whether active subscriptions can be cancelled directly within the Furbo mobile app. Typically, app settings redirect you to your device's app store settings (Apple or Google) or require logging into an external web account.

Does deleting the Furbo app cancel my subscription?
No. Deleting or uninstalling the Furbo app does not stop recurring billing. You must formally cancel your subscription through Apple, Google Play, or Furbo's billing portal.
Does deleting my Furbo account stop billing?
The official source does not clearly confirm whether deleting your account automatically stops third-party app store billing. The safest approach is to cancel the subscription through your billing provider first, confirm renewal is turned off, and then proceed with account deletion.
Can I get a refund for my Furbo subscription?
Subscription charges are generally non-refundable once billed, and the official source does not guarantee prorated refunds. If you were billed through Apple or Google Play, submit a refund request through that platform's dispute portal; if billed directly, ask Furbo support.
Why can't I find Furbo in my Apple or Google subscriptions?
If Furbo is missing from your mobile subscription list, your subscription is likely billed under a different Apple/Google ID or billed directly by Furbo. Check your bank statement to identify whether the charge was processed by an app store or by Furbo directly.
Does my Furbo camera still work without a subscription?
Yes, core hardware functions such as live view streaming, two-way audio, and manual treat tossing typically continue to work without a subscription. However, cloud-based Furbo Dog Nanny features like 24-hour recorded video history and advanced smart alerts will cease.
How can I prove my Furbo subscription was canceled?
Keep a copy of your cancellation confirmation email or take a screenshot of your subscription status in Apple Settings, Google Play, or your Furbo web portal showing an expiration date instead of an active renewal date.
Conclusion
Canceling a Furbo subscription requires identifying the company that bills your account. If you enrolled through an app store, cancel directly within Apple Subscriptions or Google Play Subscriptions. If your charges come directly from Furbo, use your online billing portal or submit a cancellation request through the Furbo Help Center.
Always complete the cancellation process before your next renewal date, avoid relying on app deletion to stop payments, and retain a screenshot or confirmation receipt for your records.
Cancellation steps, billing rules, refund policies, and account settings can change by company, platform, country, app version, account type, and billing provider. Always confirm the latest cancellation instructions in your official account, billing portal, app store subscription settings, or the company’s official help center before your next renewal date. Information is checked for 2026 where available, but official sources should always be treated as the final authority.
