Cancel Facetune: The Right Way

How to cancel Facetune and take back control of your photo-editing budget

Why you might want to cancel Facetune

Facetune is a popular portrait-editing app developed by Lightricks that offers skin smoothing, teeth whitening, feature reshaping, and professional-grade retouching tools across iOS, Android, and the web. The app attracts millions of users in Singapore, but subscription costs accumulate quickly, and if the service no longer serves your needs, cancelling should be straightforward and cost-free. This guide walks you through your rights, your cancellation options, and the steps you need to take to exit your subscription without penalty. Tocancel exists to help you understand and enforce your consumer protections every step of the way.

Understanding facetune's business model

Facetune operates on a recurring subscription model, meaning your payment renews automatically every month or year unless you actively cancel. You do not own the app; you rent access to its features. The moment your subscription ends, your premium features lock, though you retain access to any photos you have already edited. Understanding this distinction is crucial because it shapes your cancellation rights and refund eligibility under Singapore's consumer protection law.

When cancellation becomes urgent

If you no longer use Facetune, or have found a free or cheaper alternative, every day you delay costs money. Many users forget they are subscribed and pay for months without opening the app. Cancelling within your refund window (typically 14 days for web purchases) preserves your money; cancelling after that deadline usually means you forfeit the current billing cycle. Tocancel recommends you act now if you are unsure whether your subscription is still active.

Facetune subscription pricing in singapore

Facetune displays multiple pricing tiers in Singapore dollars across the App Store, Google Play, and its own website, though billing periods and feature sets are not always clearly communicated upfront.

Current subscription plans and costs

Checking your current plan and renewal date

Before you cancel, you must verify exactly which plan you are subscribed to and when your next billing date falls. Log into your Facetune account or check your Apple ID or Google Play account settings to find your receipt and renewal schedule. This information determines whether you can claim a refund and how much time remains in your cancellation window. Write down your next renewal date so you can cancel before that time if you wish to avoid the next charge.

Your consumer rights and what singapore law protects

Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act gives you specific rights when cancelling digital services, and understanding them ensures you act confidently and legally.

The right to cancel within 14 days

Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act (Part III), if you purchase a subscription to Facetune through the company's website (not via Apple or Google), you have the right to cancel within 14 days of purchase and receive a full refund, provided you have not already consumed the full service. This is your statutory cooling-off period, and Facetune cannot legally refuse it. Your legal position is strong here: the burden is on Facetune to honour this right without question. If you purchased via the App Store or Google Play, Apple or Google's own refund policies may apply instead, which we cover in the platform-specific sections below.

Cancellation rights after the cooling-off period

After 14 days, your right to a refund depends on the terms you agreed to at purchase. Many subscriptions allow you to cancel at any time and retain access until the end of your current billing period, after which no further charge occurs. However, Facetune does not refund unused portions of annual subscriptions, meaning if you cancel mid-year, you lose the remainder of your paid period. Tocancel recommends you review Facetune's terms and conditions before purchasing, especially if you are unsure about long-term commitment. The Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE) is your enforcement body if Facetune refuses to honour your statutory rights.

Cancellation methods for each platform

How you cancel Facetune depends on where you bought your subscription, and each platform follows its own procedure and refund timeline.

Cancel Facetune on iPhone or iPad via the app store

Apple manages your Facetune subscription through your Apple ID, not through Facetune itself. Cancelling requires you to navigate Apple's subscription settings directly.

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Tap your name or Apple ID profile picture at the top of the screen.
3. Select Subscriptions from the menu options.
4. Find and tap Facetune in your active subscriptions list.
   • If Facetune does not appear, you may have no active subscription on this device.
   • Check under "Expired" if you cancelled previously and want to re-subscribe.
5. Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom of the screen.
6. Confirm your cancellation by following the on-screen prompts.
7. Apple will send you a confirmation email within minutes.

Critical point: deleting the Facetune app from your home screen does not cancel your subscription. You must follow these Apple Settings steps, or your card will be charged at the next renewal date. If you cancel within 14 days of your most recent renewal, contact Apple Support to request a refund.

Cancel Facetune on android via google play

Google Play manages your Facetune subscription independently of the Facetune app, so you must cancel through Google's platform, not within Facetune itself.

1. Open the Google Play app on your Android device.
2. Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
3. Select Manage subscriptions from the menu.
4. Tap Facetune from your list of active subscriptions.
   • Scroll down if Facetune is not immediately visible.
   • Check Manage to see your billing history and renewal date.
5. Tap Cancel subscription at the bottom of the screen.
6. Choose a reason for cancellation (optional, but helpful feedback).
7. Confirm your cancellation in the final prompt.
8. Google will email you a confirmation within minutes.

Unlike Apple, Google does not automatically refund purchases within 14 days; you must request a refund separately within 48 hours of cancellation through your Google Play account. Access your order history, find the Facetune charge, and select Request a refund to begin the process.

Cancel Facetune on the web via facetuneapp.com

If you subscribed directly through Facetune's website rather than an app store, you cancel through your online account and benefit from the strongest consumer protections, including the 14-day cooling-off period under Singapore law.

1. Visit facetuneapp.com and log into your account with your email and password.
2. Navigate to Account Settings or Subscription Settings (usually in the top right menu or account profile section).
3. Locate your Active Subscriptions and select Manage or Change.
4. Click Cancel Subscription next to your current plan.
   • Facetune may ask you to confirm your reason for cancellation.
   • Do not be swayed by retention offers; proceed with your cancellation.
5. Confirm the cancellation in the pop-up dialogue.
6. Check your email immediately for a cancellation confirmation receipt.

Web cancellations are the most transparent route. Tocancel strongly recommends keeping the confirmation email as proof of your cancellation date. If you purchased within 14 days, reply to that confirmation email requesting a full refund, citing the cooling-off period under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act. Facetune is legally obliged to honour it.

Understanding refund eligibility and timelines

Your right to a refund depends on how long ago you purchased and which platform you used, and the timeline varies significantly.

Refund rules by purchase method

How to request a refund if you are within the window

Acting immediately is essential. If you cancelled Facetune within 14 days of purchase or renewal, email the support address listed below or contact your payment platform directly. For web purchases, your refund request must reference your order number, email address, and the date you purchased. For App Store purchases, contact Apple Support through your account settings and request a refund for your most recent Facetune charge. For Google Play, open your order history in the Google Play app, select the Facetune charge, and tap Request a refund. Each platform processes refunds within 5 to 10 business days once approved.

What happens after you cancel Facetune

Cancelling your subscription is not the end of the process; you should verify the cancellation and secure your account.

Immediate steps after cancellation

Once you have cancelled, your premium features remain active until the end of your current billing period. You can continue using Facetune until that date at no extra cost. After your subscription ends, the app reverts to free (limited) mode, and you lose access to advanced tools. Save or export any edited photos you wish to keep before your subscription expires, because Facetune does not guarantee cloud storage of your work indefinitely. Tocancel recommends taking a screenshot of your cancellation confirmation as proof in case you are charged again by mistake.

If you are charged after cancelling

If Facetune or your payment provider charges you after you have cancelled, this is a billing error. Contact your bank or credit card company immediately and dispute the charge. Simultaneously, email Facetune's support team with your cancellation confirmation and request an immediate refund. Do not ignore unexpected charges; banks can reverse them within 60 days, and the Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE) can escalate complaints if Facetune refuses to cooperate. Tocancel has helped thousands of consumers recover unwanted charges, and swift action is your strongest leverage.

Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling

Many users cancel incorrectly and end up still being charged, or miss their refund window by days. Here is what goes wrong most often.

Deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription

This is the single most common mistake. Removing Facetune from your phone does nothing to your subscription; your payment method is charged on schedule. The app and the subscription are separate. Always cancel through Settings (Apple), Manage Subscriptions (Google), or Account Settings (web), never through the app store's uninstall button.

Cancelling too close to your renewal date

If you cancel on the same day as your renewal, your payment may already have processed. Aim to cancel at least two to three business days before your renewal date to ensure the cancellation takes effect. Check your renewal date in your account settings before you cancel, and circle it on your calendar.

Not requesting a refund within the window

Cancelling and requesting a refund are two separate actions. Simply cancelling your subscription does not automatically trigger a refund; you must ask for one within 14 days (web) or 48 hours (Google Play) or Apple's standard 14-day window. Write a clear refund request email with your order number and state that you are exercising your right to a cooling-off period or a refund for an unused service.

Ignoring unexpected charges after cancellation

If your bank statement shows a Facetune charge months after you cancelled, contact your bank immediately to dispute it. Do not assume it will resolve itself. Tocancel recommends setting a phone reminder for the first of each month to scan your statements for unexpected charges; early action makes recovery easier.

Facetune cancellation address and contact details

If Facetune refuses to process your cancellation or refund, escalate your complaint to the address and authorities listed below.

Direct contact details

Facetune's business address is registered at Yesha'yahu Leibowitz 30, 9190401, Jerusalem, Israel. While no dedicated Singapore office address has been publicly confirmed, you can contact Facetune through its website support portal at facetuneapp.com/support. For persistent billing issues, address your complaint in writing to the Jerusalem address above and request written confirmation of cancellation and refund. Keep copies of all correspondence.

Escalation to singapore consumer authorities

If Facetune ignores your cancellation or refund request within 14 days, lodge a formal complaint with the Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE). CASE is the enforcement body for the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act and can investigate unfair trading practices, including wrongful billing and refusal to honour statutory cooling-off rights. Visit www.case.org.sg or call 1800-6100-600 (toll-free) to file a complaint. Provide your cancellation confirmation, refund request email, and evidence of any unauthorised charges.
