I paid almost $90 for this app and it works some days and some days it does not work. I’ve gone over a month without it working. It wasn’t until I asked for a refund that they finally fixed it! It’s a great idea I just wish it worked all the time.
Attempted to continue billing me after I canceled; and then they make it even more difficult to cancel. Stay away!!!!
The information seems helpful but it’s watered down to the point of being inaccurate. So similar to scrolling on social media you feel like you’re learning but it’s too basic to really understand the lessons behind them. The subscription is not easy to cancel either.

Questions
Can I get a refund after I already canceled Deepstash: Smarter Every Day!?
Yes. Canceling stops future renewals but does not refund a charge that already went through. You request that separately at reportaproblem.apple.com, and "I was charged after I canceled the subscription" is the reason to select.
How long do I have to ask for a refund?
Apple generally expects refund requests within 90 days of the charge. Ask as soon as you notice it — requests on recent charges are approved more often.
Apple declined my request. Is that the end?
No. A first decline is common and is often automated. You can submit the request again with more specific facts and ask for review by a senior advisor. If it is declined again, you can dispute the charge with your card issuer.
Will I lose access to Deepstash: Smarter Every Day! if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. Canceling only stops the next renewal.
