About Apple Music

Apple Music streams 100M+ songs ad-free with Lossless and Spatial Audio. Individual $10.99/mo, Family $16.99/mo (6 people), Student $5.99/mo. Cancel in iPhone Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions, or at music.apple.com.

Refunds & billing

Apple may refund unused subscription periods through reportaproblem.apple.com. Approval is at Apple's discretion but accidental renewals are usually refunded if requested within 30 days.

Common problems & troubleshooting

•You're subscribed through Apple One — cancelling Apple Music alone isn't possible. Cancel Apple One (which removes Music, TV+, Arcade, iCloud+) or switch back to individual.
•You see Apple Music in your iPhone settings but 'Cancel' is missing — your subscription is managed by a Family Sharing organizer.
