- You will continue to have access to YouTube Premium until the end of your billing cycle.
- If you cancel your subscription, you can still access YouTube, but you will see ads, and some features, like background playback, will be unavailable.
Canceling YouTube Premium from Other Devices:
You can also cancel your YouTube Premium subscription from other devices, such as your phone or tablet. The process is similar to canceling on a computer, and you can follow the instructions provided in the YouTube app or on the mobile website.
Additional Tips:
- Check for any outstanding charges: Before you cancel, review your billing history to ensure you don't have any pending charges.
- Download videos for offline viewing: If you plan to continue using YouTube, you can download videos to watch them offline. However, keep in mind that you may not be able to download all videos.
- Consider a family plan: If you have multiple family members who use YouTube Premium, consider switching to a family plan. This can be more cost-effective in the long run.
By following these steps, you can easily cancel your YouTube Premium subscription on your computer and manage your membership.
