How to cancel 1Password

There are two possible routes, and using the wrong one is why people cancel 1Password and still get charged. Check which applies to you first.

First: work out who is billing you

This is the step people skip. 1Password can be billed either by Apple (if you subscribed inside an iPhone or iPad app) or by 1Password directly (if you signed up on their website). Only the biller can cancel it.

To check: open Settingsyour nameSubscriptions on your iPhone. If 1Password appears there, Apple bills you — use route A. If it does not, use route B.

Route A — billed by Apple

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap your name at the very top.
  3. Tap Subscriptions.
  4. Tap the subscription, then Cancel Subscription.

Route B — billed by 1Password directly

  1. Sign in at my.1password.com.
  2. Open Billing.
  3. Select Cancel subscription.

Worth knowing: ⚠️ Do not cancel before you have moved your passwords. 1Password has no free tier — when the subscription lapses the vault becomes read-only and then inaccessible. Export to a .1pux or CSV file, or import into another manager, first.

What happens after you cancel

The account goes read-only at the end of the term, then is frozen. Data is retained for a period so you can export, but plan on doing it beforehand.

Always confirm it worked. Look for a cancellation email, and re-open the billing page to check the status reads cancelled or "ends on [date]". Then set a calendar reminder for the day after the period ends and check your card statement. A surprising number of cancellations do not take on the first attempt.

Before you cancel: is downgrading better?

Most services have a cheaper tier that people never look at, and several offer a pause instead of a cancellation. If you use 1Password occasionally rather than never, a lower plan or a temporary pause usually beats cancelling and resubscribing at a higher price later.
