What to Know

On Hulu.com: Log in to your account and select your name, then choose Account. Scroll down and select Cancel.
On Android: Log in to the Hulu app and tap Account > Account. Tap Cancel next to Cancel Your Subscription.
If you signed up through your phone or cable provider, you must cancel Hulu through those services.

This article explains how to cancel your Hulu subscription. The process differs depending on the device you use and how you signed up. Instructions cover Hulu on the web, its mobile app, iTunes, video game consoles, and more.

How to Cancel Hulu on the Web

The easiest way to cancel a Hulu subscription is through the Hulu website:

Go to Hulu.com in any web browser and select Log in in the top-right corner.
Log in to your account and select your name in the top right corner.
Select Account.
Scroll to the bottom of the screen and select Cancel.
Select Continue to Cancel.

Hulu will also offer to suspend your subscription temporarily and not charge you.

Hulu works hard to keep you an active subscriber, so it will provide additional offers to keep you around. If you still want to cancel, select No, Cancel Subscription, and your Hulu subscription will end.

You'll maintain access to Hulu through the end of the billing period for which you've already paid.

How to Cancel Hulu on iPhone and Android

While you can create a Hulu account on an iPhone, you can't unsubscribe using an iPhone. The Hulu app for iPhone just tells you to use the website to manage your subscription. You can, however, manage your subscription on the Android version of the Hulu app:

Launch the Hulu app and tap Account in the bottom-right corner.
Tap Account and enter your password again if prompted.
Tap Cancel next to Cancel Your Subscription.

How to Cancel Hulu in iTunes

It's possible to subscribe to Hulu via iTunes using your Apple ID. Rather than paying Hulu directly, you instead tie your Hulu subscription to your Apple ID and use whatever credit or debit card is on file with iTunes.

In this scenario, you must manage your subscription through your Apple ID by following these steps:

Launch iTunes and select the Account menu.
Select View My Account and log in to your Apple ID if prompted.
Scroll down to the Settings section and select Manage next to Subscriptions.
Select Edit next to Hulu to be taken to a page where you can cancel your subscription.

How to Cancel Hulu on Playstation 4

Video game systems like the Playstation 4 and Xbox consoles also support video streaming apps like Hulu. If you subscribed to Hulu on your PS4, follow these steps to cancel:

Select Settings on the home screen.
Select Account Management.
Select Account Information.
Select PlayStation Subscriptions to manage your Hulu subscription.

To manage subscriptions on Xbox One consoles, go to Settings > Account > Subscriptions.

How to Cancel Hulu With Your Cable Company

Some phone and cable providers let you subscribe to Hulu as an add-on to their normal services. If you subscribed to Hulu in this way, you'll need to cancel your Hulu subscription from your account with those providers. Log into your online account or contact the provider to cancel.

How to Cancel HBO, Showtime, or Other Hulu Add-Ons

In addition to the core Hulu service, you can subscribe to HBO, Showtime, and Cinemax as part of your monthly Hulu bill. To cancel one or more of these add-ons while holding onto your main Hulu subscription:

Log in at Hulu.com, select your name in the top-right corner, and select Account.
Scroll down to the Subscriptions section and select Manage Add-ons. You can then select the add-ons you want to cancel.
