First: work out who is billing you

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

To check: open Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your iPhone. If Ring Protect 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 Ring Protect directly

  1. Sign in at ring.com/account in a browser (or open the Ring app → Account → Subscriptions).
  2. Open Plans and select the plan for the right location.
  3. Choose Cancel Plan and give a reason.
  4. Choose whether it ends now or at the end of the billing cycle, and confirm.

Go straight to the Ring Protect cancellation page →

Worth knowing: Each Ring location has its own plan, so cancel each one. If you pay through Amazon, cancel it in Amazon's Memberships & Subscriptions instead. Ring no longer refunds the rest of a billing period after you cancel.

What happens after you cancel

Your cameras keep working for live view and alerts, but recording, video history and sharing stop. Download any videos you want to keep first.

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 Ring Protect occasionally rather than never, a lower plan or a temporary pause usually beats cancelling and resubscribing at a higher price later.
