Tired of streaming television? Here is how to cancel YouTube TV on any device

YouTube broke into the crowded streaming service space in 2017 when it launched YouTube TV. For many, the online media giant’s streaming service provided a convenient solution for watching TV on the go. But the subscription price has spiked in the five years since its unveiling. The $35 monthly subscription now runs consumers $65 a month. Amid record inflation in 2022, that price can feel especially steep.

Here is a step-by-step on canceling your YouTube TV subscription. We should note that your subscription will be active until the end of the payment period after you cancel. If you’re canceling a free trial, you will lose access to the service immediately.
