App subscriptions and in-app purchases are charges that happen inside applications on your phone or tablet, separate from what you pay for the app itself. You might encounter a subscription when an app offers a free trial that converts to monthly payments, or an in-app purchase when a game lets you buy virtual currency or unlock features. Understanding how these charges work, where they appear on your bill, and how to manage or cancel them helps you stay in control of your spending.
The articles here explain how subscriptions and purchases are set up, how to find what you're currently paying for, how to stop recurring charges, and what happens when a charge appears that you don't recognize. You'll also learn how these purchases show up on your phone's billing statements and what options you have if something goes wrong.
