How to cancel Delish: Original Fun Recipes and get your money back
Delish: Original Fun Recipes is a Food & Drink app by Hearst Communications, Inc.. Canceling and getting refunded are two separate things — most people do the first and assume the second happens automatically. It doesn't.

Step 1 — Stop the next charge
- On iPhone or iPad: Settings → tap your name → Subscriptions.
- Select Delish: Original Fun Recipes → Cancel Subscription.
- Check that it now says Expires and not Renews. If it still says Renews, it is not canceled.

Don’t bother with this app. I signed up for a subscription. App doesn’t recognize that even after I changed my password 6 times. I’m canceling my subscription immediately. Too many other cooking options without this much bs. Waste of time
If you are prompted to download the app when using the web browser version, don't bother. You can only look at two of the "non-subscriber" recipes, which are limited, without subscribing and even those are impractical because the subscription window pops up every time you try to scroll up or down and has to be closed again before you can proceed. If you specifically use delish recipes frequently and want to put you…
I was excited to use the app and find new recipes but after downloading and going through all the set up I find out without a subscription you cannot use the app. Seemed like it might have been an ok app but without so much competition, o expected more.

Questions
Can I get a refund after I already canceled Delish: Original Fun Recipes?
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 Delish: Original Fun Recipes if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. Canceling only stops the next renewal.
