Cancel Apple Arcade today if you don't want to get charged for your free trial

If you signed up for Apple Arcade free trial on day one (September 20) and don't want to get charged $7.99, today's the day to cancel and save yourself a couple of bucks.

Of course, the games on Apple Arcade are actually pretty good. We've really been enjoying titles like What The Golf, Grindstone, Tint, and Bleak Sword, and Apple has been adding to the library regular basis. Better yet, every game is free from in-app purchases, timers that gate content, and ads.

When you cancel Apple Arcade, you'll lose access to every game you've downloaded from the service, including anything you've download to your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV.

If you decide you want to cancel Apple Arcade, we've laid out the steps below. If you've already been billed because you signed up as part of the public beta or just missed the deadline, you can still cancel. You won't get a refund, but you'll be able to keep using Apple Arcade for the month you've paid for.

How to cancel Apple Arcade on your iPhone or iPad

• Open the App Store on your iPhone or iPad
• Tap the Account icon in the top right-hand corner on the screen
• Tap Subscriptions
• Tap Apple Arcade
• Press Cancel Free Trial or Cancel Subscription
• Tap Confirm
