What goes wrong with YouCam Makeup: Face Editor billing
We read the 151 recent 1–2★ reviews of YouCam Makeup: Face Editor that mention money. These are the specific problems they describe (one review can describe more than one):
- Free trial turned into a paid charge70
- Refund refused by the developer18
- Charged a different amount or plan than expected17
- Charged after canceling14
- Could not find a way to cancel6
- Paid, then core features stayed locked2
What this means for you: The most common complaint is a free trial quietly turning into a paid charge. Ask as soon as you notice it — requests made within days of the charge are approved far more often than ones made weeks later. Pick "A free trial turned into a paid subscription" in the form below and say when the trial started and that you never meant to continue.
Step 1 — Stop the next charge
- On iPhone or iPad open Settings and tap your name at the very top.
- Tap Subscriptions, then YouCam Makeup: Face Editor.
- Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm.
Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription. This is the single most common reason people keep getting charged.
Then check it actually worked
Look at the date line under the subscription. This one word tells you whether you are still being charged:
If it still says Renews, the cancellation did not go through — go back and do it again. Either way, a charge that already happened is refunded separately, in Step 2.
Step 2 — Ask Apple for the charge back
Answer these and you'll get the exact wording to paste into Apple's form. Nothing is sent anywhere — it's generated in your browser.
Free — the refund request to send Apple. No account, no email required.
$5.99 one time — the appeal letter for when Apple declines your first request, plus the chargeback letter for your card issuer if Apple still says no. Emailed to you. Not a subscription. Nothing renews. Full refund on request — see Refund Policy.
You're not the only one

This app use to be free it never pressured you to buy the subscription but here lately it’s asking for payment so i permanently will remove it from my phone more money for me🙂
Don’t sign up for a free trial on this app. Your card will be charged before the “free” trial is up. Deleting this app and won’t be using again because of this inconvenience. Thanks.
They forced me to subscribe the annual version and I really didnt want it. They also refuse to dispute the charge although I never used the app agter free trial. The ads were misleading suggesting even after the free trial it will charge me for monthly rate but it charged me for annual rate after the free trail, although I had canceled my subscription inside the app and removed it completely. Turns out that if I dont…

Questions
Can I get a refund after I already canceled YouCam Makeup: Face Editor?
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 YouCam Makeup: Face Editor if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. Canceling only stops the next renewal.
YouCam Makeup: Face Editor is not listed in my Apple subscriptions, but I am still being charged. What now?
Then Apple is not the one charging you — the company is billing your card or PayPal directly, and reportaproblem.apple.com will not help. Check your card or PayPal statement for the merchant name, cancel from your account on that company website, and ask them for the refund in writing. If they do not answer within a few days, dispute the charge with your bank or card issuer instead.
