Advisory: Cancel Where You Subscribed

You can only stop billing on the platform you originally paid on. If you subscribed inside an app, cancelling on the website won't stop the charge — and vice versa. Watch out for retention “dark patterns” too: keep going until you see a clear “Cancellation Confirmed” screen and a confirmation email.

Aftermath

What Happens After Cancelling Grammarly?

After cancelling, you will continue to have access to Grammarly Pro features until the end of your current billing period. Your subscription will not renew, and you will not be charged again. All your saved documents and writing history will remain available when you revert to the Grammarly Free version.

Alternative Solutions

Grammarly Alternatives Worth Considering

If you find Grammarly's advanced features are not essential, downgrading to Grammarly Free offers basic grammar, spelling, and punctuation checks. For those seeking more comprehensive writing assistance or a different feature set, consider services like ProWritingAid, which offers extensive style and grammar analysis, often at competitive price points. Hemingway Editor is another option for improving readability and clarity, with a focus on identifying complex sentences and adverbs.

Pre-Cancellation Review

Before You Cancel — Things to Consider

  • Review your current billing cycle: Grammarly Pro charges $30.00 per month on a rolling monthly plan, or a single $144.00 installment for an annual plan. Ensure you cancel before your next renewal date.
  • Third-party App Store subscriptions: If you signed up through the iOS App Store or Google Play Store, the cancel button on the web dashboard will not be available. You must cancel the subscription within your mobile device settings.
  • Superhuman combined users: If you subscribed via the Superhuman combined writing package ($33–$40/mo), executing a cancellation on your Grammarly dashboard will automatically terminate access across the entire Superhuman client infrastructure.
  • Check if you have any active annual plans. While this guide focuses on monthly, annual plans have different upfront costs ($144.00). Go to your Account section to confirm your plan type.
  • Note that cancelling Grammarly Pro will revert you to the Free version. All your saved writing and suggestions will remain accessible, but you will lose access to advanced Pro features.
