How to Cancel Backbone Subscription: Quickly
If you signed up for a Backbone subscription but now wishes to cancel it, you can follow these steps to do so quickly and easily:
Go to the Backbone app and tap the menu icon in the top left. Choose Settings, then Account. You should see a “Manage Subscription” option here. Tap that and you can cancel your subscription.
If you don’t see the “Manage Subscription” button, it likely means you signed up for Backbone+ through the App Store instead of the website. No problem! Just read the below article, I have provided a guide to cancelling from the app store too.
