Cancellation instructions — how to cancel via device settings

iOS subscriptions are cancelled through device Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions; Android subscriptions through Google Play. The app cannot provide a direct cancel button, but it must communicate the cancellation path — users who cannot figure out how to cancel file chargebacks, which cost the developer $15–$25 per dispute plus chargeback ratio penalties. Apple guideline 3.1.2 requires that users are informed of how to cancel, and the FTC Negative Option Rule requires that cancellation be "simple." A paywall that says "Cancel anytime" without providing any actual cancellation instructions is deceptive under this standard.

Add a "Manage Subscription" button to your settings or account screen that opens the platform's subscription management. Include brief cancellation text on the paywall as well.

// SettingsScreen.tsx
import { Platform, Linking } from 'react-native';

const manageSubscription = async () => {
  const url = Platform.OS === 'ios'
    ? 'https://apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions'
    : 'https://play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions';
  await Linking.openURL(url);
};

<TouchableOpacity onPress={manageSubscription}>
  <Text>Manage Subscription</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>

On the paywall, include at minimum: "Cancel anytime in device Settings." This text satisfies Apple's disclosure requirement and, combined with the manage-subscription deep link in settings, gives users a complete cancellation path.
