How to cancel Lingokids: Games & Shows and get your money back
Lingokids: Games & Shows is a Education app by Monkimun Inc. Canceling and getting refunded are two separate things — most people do the first and assume the second happens automatically. It doesn't.
Based on 100 of the most recent public App Store reviews, sampled September 2026.
Step 1 — Stop the next charge
- On iPhone or iPad: Settings → tap your name → Subscriptions.
- Select Lingokids: Games & Shows → Cancel Subscription.
- Check that it now says Expires and not Renews. If it still says Renews, it is not canceled.
Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription. This is the single most common reason people keep getting charged.
Step 2 — Ask Apple for the charge back

This is a good app but it’s ridiculous you have to pay to play the games it only lets you play on game on each and locks the others until you pay for the subscription what a rip off app only cares about money!!
DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS APP! My kids loved this app but when it comes to trying to cancel it it’s next to impossible!
Trying to get it, but I didn’t seem as advertising. It looked fun, but it wasn’t like it said on the end, the games weren’t free you needed a subscription The seven trial day wasn’t a waste of money. I didn’t purchase it, but it said free, but it wasn’t free.

Questions
Can I get a refund after I already canceled Lingokids: Games & Shows?
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 Lingokids: Games & Shows if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. Canceling only stops the next renewal.
