# Does uninstalling Storage Studio cancel my subscription?

No. Removing the app from your Mac doesn't change your subscription — billing carries on until you cancel it.

To cancel, do it before or after uninstalling:

- In the app, open **Settings → License** and use the manage button there, which opens the secure billing portal.
- Or use the **Manage subscription** link in any receipt email.

Cancelling stops future charges, and access continues to the end of the period you've paid for. Full details are in [Manage your subscription](https://storagestudio.us/manual/manage-subscription).
