How to cancel Plaud: AI Note Taker and get your money back
Plaud: AI Note Taker is a Productivity app by PLAUD LLC. Canceling and getting refunded are two separate things — most people do the first and assume the second happens automatically. It doesn't.

- On iPhone or iPad: Settings → tap your name → Subscriptions.
- Select Plaud: AI Note Taker → 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.

After being a subscriber for a few months, my Plaud device stopped recording properly. Support replaced it with a device that never functioned right. I could never get FindMy working on my new device. I cancelled my nearly $250 per year subscription and they keep charging my card even after cancelling o their website, and then contacting support. They just now tried to charge my card again for a fourth time. This com…
Such a racket! You pay $100 per year and need customer service to cancel. HOWEVER, customer service is AI, no humans available. And even after you pay $100, you only have so many minutes you’re allowed to use. If you don’t continue to pay the yearly subscription, it deletes your records. Just go buy Dragon!
They make it impossible to cancel. Make sure you use a temp card. Because it’s been so hard to stop trying to charge me. Luckily I canceled my card or another 280 would get charged

Questions
Can I get a refund after I already canceled Plaud: AI Note Taker?
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 Plaud: AI Note Taker if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. Canceling only stops the next renewal.
